Obviously, Rag was there as well. When Franlia arrived, he and Krune were once again talking about food while cooking. As for Iem, he was in another room talking with Tulike about other topics. Later, Rag served the food as Franlia took the chance to finally ask about what happened back there.

"Everyone was frightened when they saw that Demon Beast moving or changing into human form, let alone when it acted against those four Celestial Organization members. However, it was not the case for the two of you. It was as if you already expected that."

"Also, Dudo and Mala told me what you did with those Silver Flames. You absorbed all of them one after another, right? It definitely has something to do with the Demon Beast's awakening."

Iem and Krune nodded.

"Yes. Those Silver Flames were, in fact, Soul Fragments of the Demon Beast. What we did was help one of those Soul Fragments fuse back together with all of them. Only then did that Soul have enough power to awaken again."

There was not much of a point trying to hide it since anyone in Franlia's position wouldn't believe it.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you since I don't know where that demon beast went. It definitely has the power to destroy this entire planet if it wished to, let alone a small sect like mine. The last thing I need is to become enemies with it."

That's why Krune and Iem were not afraid of admitting anything. No one other than them knew that Zule left the Four Realms. Anyone who knew as much of the situation as Franlia would never try to attack them.

Franlia then continued.

"Still, couldn't you wait for some time before doing that? In just a few days, we would start the trading with the Foundation Space cultivators and demon beasts. Now, that demon beast took the leaders of the Celestial Organizations back and left. Also, all the Sealed Spaces around the Top-Quality Godly Energy Veins collapsed. I can't help but feel like it was a waste."

Krune smiled and then took a Spatial Ring out, which he gave to Franlia right after.

"That Demon Beast's name was Zule. Just like you, we wouldn't want to be on his bad side. That being said, he asked us to give Sect Master Franlia this Spatial Ring as thanks for the blind help you gave him so far."

Franlia was taken aback as she looked at that Spatial Ring. She and Rag then looked at each other before looking at the contents inside the Spatial Ring. The moment their Divine Senses checked, their hearts almost stopped! There were so many rare resources, if not extinct ones, inside that Franlia and Rag didn't even know where to start.

Rag began to sweat profusely.

"This... what can we do with all these resources?"

Franlia was as shocked as Rag.

"There is a lot of Elemental Essences, Extinct Herbs for pills, Cultivation Resources, and more! Not to mention the ones that I don't know what they are used for. If used correctly, our sect won't suffer from a shortage of resources for thousands of years! No, with all these things, we won't take long for Nascent God Realm members to appear between us."

Krune smiled when he heard that. He didn't look into that Spatial Ring before but already knew that it would be a frightening fortune.

"With this, I guess Sect Master Franlia will have no issues with the Demon Beast's disappearance and the loss of the trades. I wonder if you would be able to get as much as you got now if those trades happened."

Franlia shook her head.

"I doubt so. So what if the demon beast left. As far as I'm concerned, it can be gone forever now. The only thing I feel bad about is that I had no chance to thank him for this."

Iem then warned Franlia.

"Sect Master, be careful while using these things. If others find about it, even Nascent God powers will disregard anything to get this Spatial Ring."

Franlia and Rag immediately calmed down after hearing Iem's words.

"Don't worry. I know how I'm going to use this from now on. I'll select a few trusted members and raise them with these resources in secret. The same would go for me, Rag, and Tosely. We will try to break through to the Nascent God Realm before showing ourselves again. Once that happens, few will think about trying something funny."

Franlia then took out a spare Spatial Ring and threw a bunch of those resources inside. Not long after, she passed them to Rag.

"The first one to do that has to be my husband. No one knows about his existence outside of the sect. Let alone that he is also at the Late Stage of the God Core Realm."

Rag took the Spatial Ring and nodded. The two of them were married to each other. There was no need to be polite around each other in their eyes.

"Above everything else, we first need at least one Nascent God Realm cultivator or demon beast as soon as possible. Only then will I feel at ease to start using the rest."

Rag then smiled at Krune and Iem before saying.

"I need to go into seclusion. We won't see each other again anytime soon, so let me thank you for this. I hope your own objectives can be fulfilled as long as it doesn't put our sect at risk. I'm sure that Franlia will try to give you two as much support as possible."

Rag then took a book from his spatial ring. It was quite weird in this age of technology where one could keep everything inside their communicators. He then passed the book on to Krune.

"These are most of my recipes that I created so far as a Spiritual Chef. If it is you, I know you will make good use of them."

Krune couldn't help but feel a little moved. For him, this book was even more important than all of the Top-Quality Godly Stones he got from Zule for his cultivation. Soon after, Krune also took out a book of his own. Just like Rag, he also liked to keep his recipes in a book instead of his communicator.

"Since that's the case, I also want Senior Rag to accept mine. The dishes there are up to the Divinity Stars' level Spiritual Food only. It can't compare to your recipe book at all. Still, I put my heart into their creation, and I'm sure they will be of some help to you in the future."

Rag laughed as he sent the recipe book into his spatial ring.

"Very well. With that, I'll take my leave."

Franlia, Tulike, and Iem couldn't really understand these Spiritual Chefs, so they didn't say anything after seeing that. In the next second, Rag already teleported away to the place where he would go into seclusion.

With that over, Franlia looked at Krune and Iem.

"I won't be going into seclusion anytime soon. At least not until the waters calm down after what happened in outer space. If you need anything, just send me a message on my communicator. I'll definitely not forget this favor."

"By the way, what do you two plan to do from now on?"

Iem shrugged his shoulders.

"What else? I'm going to keep practicing my alchemy and formation skills as I cultivate. I want to ascend to the God Realm one day, after all. Still, I will stay with your Sky Shifting Sect for the moment since I doubt I will get more benefits anywhere else."

Iem was right. Franlia's sect wasn't at the same level as the Nascent God ones. However, that would definitely change in the future now that she obtained Zule's gift. As part of the reason for that to have happened, he knew that this was the best place for him to stay in the near future.

As for Krune, he pondered a bit before responding.

"I'll be leaving the sect five years from now."

Franlia didn't mind. Krune had told her that he might leave the sect at some point.

"I see. Well, five years for us cultivators pass in the blink of an eye. By the way, where are you pretending to go?"

Krune smiled and simply said.

"Back to my family."

Franlia was surprised to hear that. She didn't know that Krune had a family.

Tulike, on the other hand, already heard about it when he visited Krune's restaurant a few times in the past.

"Is it about that Feifei that you frequently talk about?"

Krune nodded.

"I've been out for way too long already. I'll spend my next five years cultivating and only go out for a few missions to test my abilities. During this time, I'll prepare everything in my restaurant and other things so that no problem remains."

Franlia shook her head in response, saying.

"Even if some problem appears, you can leave it to me to deal with. Anyway, I have a lot of things to do now that I got these resources. I'll leave you with Tulike for now."

With that, Franlia also disappeared from the room in a flash. Tulike then shrugged his shoulders as he sighed.

"I say... I never expected that some friends I made during the sect entrance exam would make so many crazy things happen. I feel like I've been nothing more than an extra until now."

Iem and Krune laughed as they heard those words.

"Well, there is the fact that you rarely leave the sect to experience the outside world. You should think more about it in the future."

Tulike nodded. In fact, he had been thinking about it recently.

"I know. I guess it's time for me to do exactly that."

The three friends then talked for a long time before they finally parted ways.
