533 Divinity Essence (2/2)
”You taking part too? Oh! You are already in the 7th Stage of the Divine Path Realm! Man, your cultivation speed is too fast! Anyway, considering your combat power, it's not weird that you are participating. Will you tell me which Universe you came from this time?”
Krune smiled as he nodded.
”I don't need to hide it anymore. I came from the Luvile Universe.”
Laka pondered a bit but couldn't remember any Universe with such a name.
”How come I've never heard about?”
Krune shrugged his shoulder.
”Well, there is no helping it. I came from a very remote Universe, after all. So far, I haven't seen anyone ever talking about my Universe. The fact that you don't know is to be expected.”
Kruen and Laka talked for a while before they separated once more.
Once Laka was far enough, his protector asked him.
”Is he someone to take notice?”
Laka nodded.
”I've seen his power first hand. I wouldn't find it weird if he got another one of the five final slots, that's how strong he is.”
Laka also wanted to say that Krune was the one who forged his Purple Flame Dragon Pearl, but he couldn't since he is bound by the Dragon Pact. Only if Krune allowed it would he be able to do so.
Laka's protector was surprised by that judgment. After all, he could see that Krune is only at the 7th Stage of the Divine Path Realm. There are loads of Peak Divine Path Realm Heavenly Divine Soul owners, so one could imagine just how much of a freak Krune is.
”Let's hope you don't have to engage him any time soon.”
Laka smiled but didn't say anything. He loves challenges, so he wouldn't mind fighting Krune if there was a need for it.
Erzato also asked Krune the same question.
”Well, he is really strong. He even entered the 8th Stage of the Divine Path Realm after the end of the Holy land. If nothing goes wrong, I don't think there will be many out there who can threaten him.”
Erzato nodded. He knows that Krune had been to the Holy Land, so it wasn't surprising that he met other Heavenly Divine Soul Owners.
Another day passed, and the auction day finally arrived. The auction building was inside a pocket dimensional realm, so it could fit tens of thousands of cultivators and demon beasts.
Krune and Erzato stayed together with the crowd. There were special booths for those who paid more, but Krune didn't care about those things. He only came to watch, after all. In any case, even if something he wants appears, it will be hard to acquire, considering the wealth of the Divine Realm cultivators and demon beasts around.
The auction started after another two hours. Finally, a female demon beast in human form went up in the stage. Krune couldn't tell her cultivation with his Divine Sense, but he was sure that she wasn't below the Semi-Divinity Realm.
”Welcome, everyone! The once is a Heavenly Competition time auction is now starting. I hope your pockets are full so that you don't regret losing the items you are about to see. Without further ado, let's begin!”
Right in the middle of the stage, there was a teleport formation. It flashed with silver light for a second before revealing a flask with a gray liquid inside. Krune looked at that but couldn't identify what it was.
”I believe the majority know what it is, but in case you don't, let me explain. This is the Planet Core Essence, refined from over a hundred planets. As you know, it is extremely difficult to make even a drop, let alone an entire bottle. I wonder just how many years the alchemist who refined it took? Perhaps over ten thousand? Who knows? It's definitely worth of being party of our auction, especially since so much had been refined, don't you think?”
”It can be used for many things, but the most common use is for Spiritual Equipment Forging. Something made with it is bound to be much better. Divinity Realm Blacksmiths would love to have just a few drops to work with. Now, you all have the chance of get some.”
”The initial price is 100 bottles of Divinity Essence.”
Kruno was interested in it, but he had no idea what Divinity Essence was. Without another choice, he could only ask Erzato.
