Once Mohie Zarks was gone, Joiu decided to ask.
"So, what was all that about?"
Krune and Feifei didn't know how to really explain.
"How can I say it... From the looks of it, my group was purposely guided to find this place."
Joiu then asked.
"But that Tribulation Jade thing. He did not tell us what it really was."
Feifei nodded.
"Indeed. But it is not here as well, so it matters little anyway. First of all, Zarks said that he probably used that already, so we won't find it here or anywhere else."
Joiu had to admit that she was right.
Krune then paid attention to the front and said.
"Alright, any other questions can come later. Let's focus on the task at hand."
The three then entered the castle.
But just as they were about to move, they heard Mohie Zarks Voice resonating in their minds.
"Any treasures, artifacts, or whatever that can surpass the power of a 5th Stage of the Soul Forging Realm have now been blocked. I'm looking forward to seeing what all the participants can do."
It wasn't only Krune's group who heard that, but all the teams. It means that Feifei and Krune's protective tokens like Krune's Grandmaster's one will not work here. Of course, that meant that the same thing was valid for all the participants in this Castle Realm at the moment.
Joiu then explained.
"That's normal, most of the high-level Inheritances that you enter in the No Law Zones have similar setups."
Krune and Feifei nodded, and they started to move forward. But just a few seconds later, they felt the ground tremble a bit.
"It seems like there is already a battle going on."
"Forget them, keep your Divine Senses spread, and let's move forward."
Krune then spread his Tribulation Lightning Layer, and the group entered one room after another. Just as Zarks mentioned, there were a lot of resources available in this place.
Each room had at least a good amount of Spirit Stones. As far as they can tell, Zarks had spread everything evenly around the enormous castle. Another thing was that the closer to the center they got, the higher the amounts.
"Hey, there are Soul Techniques here."
Krune immediately started to look into all the Jade Slips together with Joiu and Feifei.
"Alright, let's bring the Jade Slips out of the Dimensional Realm first. We can take our time to both sides memorize the contents. That way, we won't need to share."
Joiu and Feifei nodded, and they stuffed everything inside their Spatial Rings.
Krune's group then left the room and started to move again. But suddenly, Krune stopped.
"Wait!"
Soon, Joiu and Feifei found out why. Another group of three had entered their Divine Sense range. The Divine Sense in the castle was also restricted, so even Krune couldn't see more than 1km away. Still, because there were hundreds of corridors and several floors, the fact was that Krune had an enormous advantage with his Tribulation Lightning layer.
"They are two floors below us, but they can't feel our presence with Divine Sense. Let's keep moving and avoid battle as much as possible."
Of course, everything wasn't perfect. Just as Krune and his group started to move again, that group two floors below attacked the ceiling above them and immediately reached the same level as Krune and the others. It turns out that they weren't using only Divine Sense to check the surroundings. Unfortunately, Krune didn't know what they did to find them.
Krune's group immediately recognized the other side. It was Lutin Hravent's group, one of the Jade Slip owners. He was also able to protect his Jade Slip until the very end and enter the Castle Realm.
"This Purple Colored Lightning... From what I heard from the guys in the previous Realm, it seems like you are Darten, right? The multi-colored wisp."
Krune wasn't surprised that they knew. Quite a few of the Cultivators and Demon Beasts that reached the Realm Prior had been with him when they fought that Azure Dragon in the Third Realm. Since they stayed several days there doing nothing, it wasn't hard to think that his information had been spread.
"And you are Lutin Hravent, right? You are still in the 1st Stage of the Soul Forging Realm, so it is impressive that you also protected your Jade Slip until now."
Lutin then laughed.
"Not as much as you, who is still in the 4th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm."
Krune decided to stop the pleasantries.
"So, what you plan to do? Are you going to start a fight here? We are just at the start of this Realm, are you sure it is worth the risk?"
Lutin shook his head.
"Don't worry, we just wanted to see who you were. It seems like you have some technique or treasure that keeps you concealed from the other's Divine Sense. If not for the fact that my friend has a technique that enhances his perception of vibrations, we wouldn't notice your presence at all."
Lutin then extended his hand.
"So, what about this? You give me this treasure of yours or pass me this technique that conceals against Divine Sense, and we can leave each other alone for the time being."
Krune sighed and then retracted his Tribulation Lightning Layer.
"Unfortunately, this is not a treasure. This is a technique of mine. Still, this is not something you can learn even if you wanted. There is a certain something that you would need if you desire to use it. Of course, I can't tell you what it is, but I can tell that it is impossible for you to acquire one."
Krune was, in fact, talking about Light Spirit. Indeed, it wasn't something... or someone that you could simply find anywhere. He was the one and only! It is because of Light Spirit's presence that Krune is able to control the Tribulation Lightning to conceal their existence from the others' Divine Senses.
Lutin laughed and then said.
"No problem, all I need to do is take whatever it is from you. After I force you to tell me how to use it, I will naturally know how to use it as well."
Krune, Feifei, and Joiu knew that talking more would be useless, so they immediately got prepared for battle.
Lutin's group had three Soul Forging Realm members. Lutin was in the 1st Stage while the other two were in the 3rd and 5th.
Krune then sent a Divine Sense message to his group.
"Lutin is definitely a lot stronger than his Realm depicts him, probably even more than that 3rd Stage guy. So Joiu, I will leave him to you. As a Peak Divine Soul Realm with a Major Divine Soul, I believe you can hold him. That 3rd Stage guy is for Fina, while I will try to get rid of the 5th stage one as fast as possible."
Joiu then immediately shook his head.
"You are still underestimating my combat power, Darten. Sure, Life Cores are not exactly good for attacks, but they are definitely better for defense. I can totally hold that 5th Stage guy by myself. So, Darten, you will take care of Lutin, and Fina and I will keep the other two away from you."
Krune was surprised that Joiu was that confident. But he had to admit that Life Core power of healing would indeed give him an enormous advantage while defending and providing support.
"Fina, should we use them now?"
Feifei knew what Krune was talking about, but shook her head.
"We don't need both yours and mine. I have already tested mine, so go ahead and try yours first. If things go wrong, I will use mine as well."
Joiu didn't know what the two were talking about, but it was evident that Darten and Fina had some trump cards to use.
'So, he didn't use everything back then against the Azure Dragon.'
Although that conversation seemed long, it was done through Divine Sense, so it took just a second.
Lutin and his group also decided on what to do, and the fight immediately started.
What Lutin was really concerned about was that Krune's group would try to flee instead. So they decided to pin down Feifei, who looked the weakest one in their group. It would force Krune and Joiu to stay to protect her.
But when he saw that all three of them coming at them, he felt delighted.
"Great! It's good that you want to finish it fast as well."
Joiu attacked the 5th Stage Soul Forging Realm guy. He released the power of his Life Divine Soul, and life energy flowed around the entire place. Everything was also very bright, with rays of light everywhere!
"Light Speed Domain!"
Lutin's companion immediately understood that Joiu wouldn't be so easy to deal with and became serious. He also released his Domain to counter-attack Joiu's. Unfortunately for him, Joiu's comprehension of the Light Laws far surpassed his one with his Earth Domain. Still, his cultivation was several stages higher than Joiu's, so they two immediately reached a stalemate.
Feifei did the same and released her Blue World Domain. She, too, had a better comprehension of the water laws than her enemy had with his Wind One. Unfortunately, she couldn't jump as many realms to fight as Krune, so she went on the defensive from the very start. She was using her Destiny Divine Soul to ensure she would be able to protect herself until Krune is finished on his side.
The good thing is that both her and Joiu's Domains were of a higher level than their enemies. So when the two got together, they were successful in suppressing their enemies' Domains even more.
Lutin noticed that he had totally underestimated Feifei and Joiu, so he too thought about finish his side as fast as possible.
"Don't think that Joiu is the only one!"
The Space around Krune and Lutin then started to get warped, and it became quite hard for Krune to move around. Even the elements started to get in disarray.
"Space Suppressing Domain!"
It only took Krune's group a second to understand what was happening.
'Space Major Divine Soul!'
Lutin turned out to be one of the Major Divine Souls that came this time around to the Mohie Zarks Inheritance!
"You are done for!"
Joiu started to get nervous. Both of them have Major Divine Souls, but Lutin is in the next Realm while he is still in the Divine Soul.
However, it was at that moment that he saw a smile on Feifei, or better, Fina's face. Joiu then paid even more attention to Darten with his Divine Sense.
Krune looked at that Domain and said.
"Is that so?"
Purple Lightning and Fire started to spread around, and the world around Krune also changed into the same color. The warped space from Lutin's Domain then returned to normal, and his Domain started to disappear little by little. Lutin looked at that and felt like something impossible was happening. That is because he could feel that the Space Laws that he was controlling in his Void Suppressing Domain were being absorbed by Krune's one. Or to be more specific, his Space Laws were being eaten!
It was then that Krune remembered that he hasn't given a name to this Domain yet.
"Errr... Purple Tribulation Lightning And Fire That Eats Other's Laws... Domain!"
Light Spirit almost fainted when he heard that name.
"You are doing it on purpose, right? Right?!"
