Trata was the name of that Earth Beaver.
As a demon beast, the fact that he was being hugged by a naked girl didn't bother him. What surprised him was the fact that she knew his name.
'And what exactly does she mean with 'You are welcome?''
Trata quickly separates himself from the girl and ask.
"Who are you?!"
That was the question on the heads of all disciples who were here with Trata at the moment. Just where did this girl come from?
Only then did the girl remember that she was now in her human form.
"Oh, sorry. It's just that you had always thanked me when you finished cultivating that I really wanted to say this."
Trata was once again taken aback.
"How do you know that? I have always cultivated alone, were you spying on-"
It was at that moment that he felt a sense of familiarity coming from the girl. The next second, an absurd idea popped in his mind.
"You- You! You are the Mountain?!"
"EEHHHHHHHHH?!!!"
The moment Trata said that, everyone exclaimed together! That enormous Mountain had become a girl? Is that for real?!
The girl nodded.
"That is me."
But before anyone could make any other questions, several Divine Soul Realm cultivators and Demon Beasts appeared together in the place Trata and the Mountain Girl were staying.
Butian came forward and said.
"Please don't disappear like that. You really gave us a fright for a moment."
Trata felt overwhelmed by that group. He recognized a few of them as being the Divine Soul Realm cultivators and demon beasts that lived in this Mountain. Or at least, until there was a Mountain before. The others that he didn't recognize were probably in the same Realm as well. For an Earth Beaver at the Foundation Establishment like him, any of those existences were the same as gods in his eyes.
The girl heard that and narrowed her eyes.
"I did not ask for any of you to follow me."
Butian had seen how the Mountain Girl treated that Earth Beaver, so he immediately thought about an idea. He spread his Divine Sense and sent that beaver a Divine Sense message.
"This girl is the human form of the Mountain. Help us to convince her into going back to her Mountain Form, and you will be greatly rewarded. Reaching the Divine Soul Realm might not be just a dream for you anymore in the future."
Trata was taken aback by that. How come such a big decision fell on his lap out of nowhere? He really didn't want to get involved in this thing at all! Still, he at least understood one thing. For a Divine Soul Realm cultivator to be asking him to do such a thing, it is evident that this girl is anything but weak!
Trata felt like he was stuck between a sword and a spear, with nowhere to run!
He didn't understand the full situation yet, but he had to choose a side, and he had to be fast. In the end, Trata gritted his teeth and made his decision.
"I..."
Back at the Dalin Universe, Feifei deactivated the Spatial Gate Formation Artifact, and the room went back to normal. Everyone smiled at each other, and they went to where the Exit of the Inheritance was located.
Rarol, Tinnian, Joiu, and Ofelo were already there waiting for them.
They would need to use that exit as well. Feifei had verified if it was possible to connect the Spatial Gate to somewhere else inside Dalin Universe. Unfortunately, that thing was projected to only work inside the Inheritance and connect to other Universes.
"Let's first wait a few hours before leaving. We told Mohie Maran that we would explore the remaining Bubble Realms, so we can't possibly come out so fast."
Everyone nodded, and they sat to cultivate. Krune also took that opportunity to further recover his Spiritual Energy that had been continuously leaking.
Time passed, and half a day went by. Krune was able to recover some of his battle ability as well. Noticing that he got up, everyone stood up as too and nodded at each other.
"Well, we can only leave now."
They stepped inside the Spatial Gate and disappeared inside.
The world around them warped by a second, and when it came back to normal, they were all above the Volcano.
Laex had been waiting all this time, so the moment that Krune and his group appeared, he immediately flew to their side. The same thing could be said about Joiu's group.
Surprisingly, Ricarte's Void Breaking Realm cultivators and demon beasts and did the same. The new leader of that group came forward and complimented Krune.
"It seems like you saved Ricarte's life in the Dimensional Realm once. He sent us a message to help protect you until you arrive in the city."
Krune and the others immediately understood what kind of excuse Ricarte gave them. But that was to be expected, though. Otherwise, they might think that Krune's group knew about the truth of the Spatial Gate. Ricarte used that puppet to tell them that he owns Krune's group a favor.
Noticing that, Krune immediately played along.
"Oh, thank you. By the way, where is Ricarte? We separated after to look for resources in the unexplored realms, so I haven't seen him after that anymore."
The guy nodded and replied.
"Young Master Ricarte told us to go ahead since he had a few things to do."
Krune nodded.
"Alright, let me just deliver something."
Krun approached Reiny's group, who couldn't enter the Inheritance and passed a token to them.
"Reiny asked me to give it to you guys, so I'm done with it now."
Krune immediately left after that. Not much time passed, and Reiny's group started to go back to the city as well.
Krune's group gathered, and they started to make their way back when suddenly, Mohie Danif stopped them on their tracks.
Laex came forward and asked.
"Do you need anything?"
Danif smiled.
"I have a question to those friends behind you who entered the Inheritance. Have you perhaps seen this thing?"
Danif then created an image with Spiritual Energy that depicted the Tribulation Jade.
Krune shook his head.
"I have told your Clan member before, we didn't find anything like that inside. In fact, Mohie Maran should have said to you that our group was the very last one to reach the last building in the Castle Realm. If there was really such an item like that there, our group was obviously not the one who took it."
Mohie Danif narrowed his eyes, but he had to admit that Krune was correct. Maran had already confirmed that Krune's group didn't appear in the building until a few hours later.
There was another thing as well that Krune's group didn't know. Mohie Maran had met with the Golden Dragonflies and killed them. But before doing that, he questioned them about the other Key to the Spatial Gate room. From their answer, he came to know that Krune's group went through a fierce fight against Uer's group.
Most likely, Krune's group had to retreat to recover from their injuries. It meant that Krune's group was indeed the one with the least chance of having acquired the Tribulation Jade. First of all, there were no guarantees that the Tribulation jade was in that Dimensional Realm to start with. All that they know is that Mohie Zarks suddenly disappeared one day while he was inside the Dalin Universe.
"Very well, I just wanted to confirm the information."
Mohie Danif then retreated with his group. They were strong, but Krune's group had several Void Breaking Realms as well. Not to mention that Danif could tell that Laex was definitely not simple.
Krune let out a sigh of relief. They really didn't have that thing, so it would be really unjust to fall into a fight because of an item that didn't exist.
On Mohie Danif's side, he was pondering about the teams that already left. Krune's group just so happen to have been the last from the Castle Realm. Well, that is if you don't count Ricarte and Reiny, who will never come out.
"Send some people to verify all the groups that entered the Castle Realm. If any weird movements are seen, make sure to inform me."
A subordinate behind Danif nodded and immediately departed.
The Realm kept open for another day until the last group stepped outside. Once they were out, the Spatial Gate inside the Volcano started to close as well. To be more precise, it was being sealed.
Danif waited until the last moment, but Ricarte's group did not come out in the end.
"Does this mean that they died?"
Usually, Inheritances would not be closed until the very last cultivator or demon beast was out or dead. So he couldn't help but think about that possibility. Of course, it didn't mean that all of them were definitely like that.
In the end, Danif knew that staying here anymore would be useless.
"Let's go."
He opened a Spatial Gate himself and entered inside with his group. Soon, the Mohie Clan party was already gone.
Only a little more than 30% of the groups that entered Mohie Zarks Inheritance came out alive. The rest all died inside. Still, no one thought it to be strange. That is just how the Mohie Clan Inheritances usually worked.
The four High-Level cultivators and demon beasts who were overseeing the Mohie Clan Inheritance noticed that all the important groups had left already. They, too, opened a Spatial Gate each and left after that. Their job was simply to stop anyone above the Void breaking Realm from intervening.
With this, the Mohie Zarks Inheritance was now officially over.
