At the center of the Luvile Universe, there was a massive black hole. Close to that place was where one could find the sealed space where Luvile's body was located. Luvile found his body's location during the time the Purple Tribulation Lightning Essence escaped his body and went to Dalin Universe.

Just a few thousands of kilometers away from there, a Spatial Gate suddenly appeared. However, the Spatial Gate had a hard time staying intact because of the effect of the black hole. Fortunately, Krune had already comprehended and merged all Space Laws, so he had enough control to keep it open.

Krune, Feifei, Heavin, and Soren then came out from inside it. Naturally, they immediately felt the powerful gravitational pull coming from the massive black hole. Without any other choice, they had to use their Spiritual Energy to stabilize their position there.

"So this is a black hole. It's the first time I've gotten close to one."

"In fact, we aren't really seeing it. All we can see is the light that runs around it before shooting back at us. At the center, there is just that black void that we really can't distinguish."

Krune, Feifei, and Heavin used their Divine Senses to check the thing, but even that was ripped apart by the black hole. Soren understood what they tried to do, so he explained.

"Around a black hole, Gravity, Space, and Time are all warped. Because of that, even Divine Sense can't pass through. There is one more thing you should pay attention to. At the moment, I'm using my Time Laws to keep us in the right flow of time. If left, who knows how much time would have passed once we leave this place. A minute here might very well mean years outside this place."

Soren then smiled before saying.

"However, Mental Energy is a whole other story. It won't be affected by the black hole at all. You can use it to check this thing if you want."

Krune's group didn't waste time and used their Mental Energy to scan the blackhole. However, their expression became weird when they did that.

Luvile and Soren knew very well why that happened, though.

"Hahaha! Pretty boring, isn't it?"

"I can't blame them. The first time I had the chance to check one from a close distance, I also expected to see something incredible."

Indeed. Krune, Feifei, and Heavin were quite disappointed. There was so much romance behind the black holethings like wormholes or passages into other universes or even planes. Unfortunately, they were able to identify that they were nothing more than just an agglomeration of mass. A black hole was exactly what it was expected to be. Just a lot of matter condensed tightly enough to become a black hole.

"Alright, forget the black hole for now. Just make sure you don't get too close. Even with your cultivation, it would be unsightly if you get caught by its gravitational pull. However, we don't know what might happen here. If you see you can't escape the black hole for some reason, immediately open a Spatial Gate and enter it. You won't know where you will be sent to since the black hole's spatial power won't let you choose a destination. Still, with cultivation, we can find our way back after gathering some information."

Everyone nodded before they looked at Krune. Well, to be more specific, they were waiting for Luvile.

Suddenly, Purple Lightning came out of Krune's body before it took the form of a man. Luvile then concentrated on his connection with his body and found the location.

"It's here."

Luvile then used a Divine Sense Message to show the exact location of his body. Soren and the others nodded and went to the place Luvile showed them. It turned out that Luvile's body was on the other side of the black hole.

However, just as they were about to get close to the sealed space, several other Spatial Gates appeared around the massive black hole. Soon after, multiple Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts came out of it.

Krune's group didn't need to think too hard to know who they were. Without a doubt, those were members of the Sacred Lands. It seemed like all three lands came as well.

Krune's group wasn't very concerned about that. They simply stopped and waited for them to come.

Lue Barcou, the Palace Master of the Extreme Yin Yang Palace, was the first one to approach. Right behind him were Tika Tarkulie and Hule Aforein, the All Life Sect and Darkness Land's leaders, respectively.

Lue and the others were taken aback when their Divine Senses touched Krune and Feifei. After all, it only took a few decades for Krune to reach the 9th Stage of the Divinity Realm. How could they not be shocked? However, they quickly came back to themselves. Krune's cultivation was not the issue at the moment.

"Krune, what are you doing here?"

Krune smiled before saying.

"There's a body I need to retrieve in this place."

Lue, Tika, and Hule were not surprised by that. If not for Luvile's body, what else would this group be doing here? The fact was that the Sacred Lands had always kept an eye on this place. The moment a Spatial Gate formed close to it, all of them were informed about the news.

"Do you know what you're saying? That is the source of the energy of our Luvile Universe's Tribulations."

Soren snorted after hearing that.

"Idiots."

Lue and the others narrowed their eyes. If it was anyone else, they wouldn't accept such a thing. However, they already knew that Krune had a Heavenly Core. Without a doubt, he was much stronger than them now that he was in the 9th Stage of the Divinity Realm together with Feifei. Besides, anyone who followed Krune around was bound to not be simple.

"Friend, what do you mean with that word?"

Soren didn't show the least bit of respect.

"I meant what I said. You're all idiots."

Still, he gave them an explanation.

"What bullshit source of energy? Each Universe is more than capable enough of providing the energy for its own Tribulations. There had never been a need to use that body's energy for it."

Soren then smiled at the Sacred Lands' leaders.

"That's quite convenient. I wanted to go after all of you before coming here. However, Krune said he didn't want to start any problems, so I ignored it. Anyway, I got lucky. You all came on your own."

He continued.

"I heard that the body's energy was being used to save energy for the Luvile Universe. Now, then. How about you brats open your mouths and tell me what the Luvile Universe is saving energy for? If your answer pleases me, perhaps I can let you go with just a warning."

Lue Barcou and the other leaders' expressions turned dark. Krune was indeed strong. However, they came here with almost all their Divinity Realm experts. Does that guy think that their group can fight against them all alone?

"We were being polite here. However, we won't simply ignore your words that easily, old man."

Krune, Feifei, and Heavin couldn't help but show a look of pity. Even Krune was absolutely no match to Soren, let alone those Sacred Lands' leaders.

Sure enough, Soren released his Mental Energy Power outwards. In an instant, it covered everyone present there.

"Kneel!"

Without being able to control their own bodies or Spiritual Energy, all Sacred Lands' experts kneeled in mid-outer space. They couldn't tell what was happening, only the fact that Soren was definitely the one who did it.

Soren then looked at the massive black hole behind him and snorted again.

"I guess I don't need to do anything. I just need to prevent you from doing anything until you fall into that little guy over there. Well, then. Shall we watch the show?"

Without being able to control their Spiritual Energies, the Sacred Lands experts were immediately pulled by the gravitational pull. Obviously, they were all frightened by that. Just how could that guy whose name was unknown to them be that strong?

Not long after, the Sacred Lands' leaders received a Divine Sense message from Krune.

'Just so you know, Senior Soren here is several times stronger than me. I don't think it's a good idea to get on his bad side. Well, whatever you decide to do is up to you.'

Lue, Tika, and Hule let out cold sweat when they heard that. They thought Krune was the leader of this group, but it seemed like they were completely wrong. In front of absolute power, everything was meaningless.

"Senior Soren, please wait! We didn't know who we were talking to. We will tell everything we know about the corpse."

Soren's expression finally improved as a smile appeared on his face.

"Now, that's more like it."

Finally, he stopped using his Mental Energy, which immediately freed the Sacred Lands' cultivators and demon beasts. They all took control of their Spiritual Energies once again, stopping their descent into the black hole. They quickly returned to their positions right after.

Soren didn't try to hurry them up and simply waited.

Tika, Lue, and Hule seemed to discuss something through Divine Sense. After that, Tika came forward to talk.

"Ahem... Sorry for our behavior just then. What does Senior Soren want to know?"

Soren nodded before repeating the same thing.

"I already told you. I want to know why the Luvile Universe needs to save energy? What does it need energy for? Or...maybe there's someone who needs it? Speak!"
