Chapter 685: Finally Open

"You two are imagining things. I only found out about it because of a secret technique of my Sect. However, it was not that reliable. That's why I took this long to find Franlia's location."

Aragan snorted before saying.

"Is that so? Alright. Show us this marvelous technique that was better than my and Groman's Divine Sense."

Binmia glared at him and asked.

"What part of the 'secret' didn't you understand?"

Franlia laughed after hearing that.

"The same way you didn't believe that Iem and Krune were real members of my Sect, I don't believe you have this Secret technique of yours."

Binmia didn't care, though.

"So what? Don't try to change the focus of the conversation here. The fact was that you were trying to leave us behind and enter the Dimensional Realm alone."

Franlia immediately nodded.

"Exactly! I just did the same thing you two would have done in my place. Or could it be that I'm wrong?"

Neither Binmia nor Aragan denied Franlia's words. Even if they did, only an idiot would believe that.

"What about the powers from where Krune and Iem came from? How can we really take chances when you say that no 4th group will appear."

Franlia knew that Binmia was trying her best to bring the topic away from what she had first asked. However, she decided to let it go. It was evident that Aragan was a lot warier of Binmia now. That was already a good outcome.

"Simple. If I had such a thing as a strong power behind my back, I wouldn't need to play with you. After all, any Nascent God would be enough to wipe you two out without raising any alarms. I will simply repeat myself. No fourth part will appear, but I can't comment on their background due to the agreement with their elders. That's all."

Aragan saw that it wasn't going anywhere.

"Enough! What about the passage? Can it be open or not?"

Franlia nodded.

"It can, but it will take sometime before they finish it."

Aragan and Franlia looked at Iem and Krune in the distance. It was evident that they considered the duo a great threat. After all, with such talent, the Sky Shifting Sect would have two frightening elders in the future if they decided to stay.

Franlia could tell what they were thinking, so she added one last piece of information.

"On, right! I would really think twice before trying something against the two of them. Don't say I didn't warn you two later."

She was obviously implying that Krune and Iem's real background was not something they should mess with. However, there was no way to confirm if such a problem really existed or not. In the end, no one could tell if Aragan or Binmia had taken the advice to heart or not.

Franlia then returned to where Iem and Krune were opening the passage into the Dimensional Realm. Right after, Aragan, Groman, Binmia, Gamka, and Tosely appeared there as well. Each Sect and their own God Core Realm elder was now waiting for Krune and Iem to finish.

Franlia then sent a Divine Sense message to the two of them to explain the situation.

"... and that's what happened. After the hole is open, I recommend you to not come with us. Instead, you two should go back to the Sect and wait for our news. After all, your cultivations are too low."

Krune and Iem looked at each other as they exchanged Divine Sense messages.

'What do you think?'

'Franlia is right. Loom around. Each Sect has brought two God Core Realms are here. They all brought several of their God Foundation Elders too. Not to mention the Mortal Rejection ones that are everywhere around us. Every single one of them is far above what we can deal with.'

Iem couldn't help but comment.

'There is a lot of Transformation and Divinity Realm levels too. I can even see a little guy at the Divine Path Realm.'

Krune still shook his head, though.

'Those are just cannon fodder. We shouldn't push our luck. After all, the other two Sects seem to be quite focused on us. This trip might instead become a lot more dangerous because of that.'

Iem agreed with Krune. He loved to battle, but this was not the level of battle he could meddle with.

'You were right. Let's finish this hole and return to the Sect. Besides, Franlia will probably reward us a lot for having opened this place.'

However, just as they were about to agree with Franlia, Zule's voice entered their minds.

'Don't go back. Let's enter!'

Krune and Iem got puzzled and immediately asked back.

'What do you mean? Is there something you want inside? We can ask Sect Master to try to take it for you.'

Zule then replied.

'That's not it. I can't tell why exactly. Still, there is something strange about this body. I need to check it once more.

'Are you talking about those things you felt during the last time we were here?'

Zule nodded.

'Yes. That familiar sensation has been increasing recently. However, that isn't all.'

Krune and Iem had heard about it the first time they entered the Demon Beast's Corpse. However, nothing happened in the end. They left the corpse, and Zule didn't comment on it anymore.

'Did something different happen this time?'

Zule nodded.

'Yes. It is very faint, but I can feel a presence that is quite familiar to my own. It's just that I can't tell where it is coming from or what relation it has with me.'

This time, Iem and Krune were finally surprised.

'Are you talking about another Heavenly Fragment?'

Zule shook his head, though.

'No. I can't explain it very well. But I can tell that it is definitely something related to the Demon Beast's Corpse. I feel like I will lose something extremely important if I don't go in this time.'

Krune and Iem then began to ponder about it. Finally, Krune looked at Iem and said.

'Well, I'll go in to take a look. After all, I need Zule's help to open a passage to the Mortal Realm for me later. You can go back since there isn't really a reason for you to risk yourself with me in there.'

Iem narrowed his eyes.

'And lose all the fun? At first, I thought it would be a simple struggle for the Foundation Space resources between the Sect Masters. To be honest, I don't have much interest in it since I can't participate in a battle of their level. However, it seems like something even more impressive is about to happen now. How can I stay behind? Hahaha!'

Krune sighed but didn't try to stop him.

'So be it. Even if I tell you to give up, I know you won't. Don't come at me later saying that I didn't warn you.'

Iem smiled and nodded.

The duo then turned to Franlia.

"We wish to go in as well, Sect Master. Also, we would like to move inside independently."

Franlia was taken aback by such a request.

"Why?"

Krune and Iem simply replied.

"That's because we wish to check a few other places while therefor example, the Demon Beast's Head. We didn't have this time before because of the time limit in the Sealed Space. As for why we will move independently, that's because we are too weak. We would be of no help to you and the others with our cultivation level. It is better if we stay away while the negotiations with the Foundation Space Powers are ongoing."

Franlia didn't like the idea. However, it was true that they couldn't change much when it came to the Foundation Space situation.

"Alright. However, the insides are still too dangerous for you two."

Franlia then sent a Divine Sense Message to two elders close to her.

"Dudo, Mala, you two will follow Krune and Iem into the Demon Beast's Corpse. Make sure you protect their lives as if they were yours."

Dudo and Mala were two of Franlia's most trusted elders in the Sect. Not only that, but they also had cultivations at the Peak of the God Foundation Realm. Unless Krune and Iem get targeted by God Core Realm enemies, Dudo and Mala should be able to keep them safe.

"Yes, Sect Master."

Neither Krune nor Iem had really a reason to deny that help. After all, they were only going in to help Zule check what was happening. Any extra help would be welcome.

"Thank you, Sect Master."

After that, Krune and Iem continued to use their Purple Lightning and Black Flames to open the passage.

Still, Zule was not the only one to feel that similar presence.

Meanwhile, there was a kid who didn't leave Binmia's side. Obviously, that was the second 'Zule.' Franlia and Aragan had noticed his presence and felt quite puzzled. They weren't idiots and could tell that Binmia must have a reason to bring that kid inside. Still, they also had some low-level cultivators and demon beasts in their groups, so they didn't bother too much.

'Zule' then looked around and smiled.

'It seems like I'm not the only one around. Still, that's good. I need as many as possible so that I can recover my Soul Power. Perhaps, I can get some of my memories back as well.'

Since there was no hurry anymore, Krune and Iem took their time to finish opening the hole safely. Finally, around a day later, the entrance into the Demon Beast's Corpse was open.
