Chapter 699: The Process (1/2)

It was the first time Krune saw Luvile being reprimanded like a kid. Well, that's to be expected. After all, how many cultivators or demon beasts were older than him?

”Zule, you said you would need to leave straight away. What if you bring others with you?”

Zule shook his head.

”Do you remember the Foundation Space in my Demon Core? Can the people and beasts there leave?”

Krune shook his head and thought about another issue.

”I understand what you mean. We can't exit since we are connected to the Four Realms. However, there is a problem here. If we can't leave because of this connection, what's the point in opening the Four Doors that lead outside?”

Zule then explained.

”Don't worry. As long as your cultivation reaches the level of a god, that link can't do anything to you.”

Luvile then asked Zule.

”Does that mean you could bring Harold and me out with you?”

Zule shook his head.

”For me to do that, you two would need to recover your full power again. Obviously, that would take a very long time.”

Luvile wasn't surprised by that answer. He only asked that out of curiosity.

”I see. However, something tells me that you have no intention of waiting here for us to recover or for Krune and Iem to reach the God level.”

Zule nodded.

”I can't wait anymore. Do you remember what Krune said? There is a reason for the existence of the Four Realms. I feel like this is not something good. I need to go out and find out what it is. Otherwise, it might be too late by the time you guys reach a level high enough to do step out.”

Zule then sighed as he thought.

”I can already see the hurdles ahead. My Silver Core is almost destroyed, and I lost a big part of my own Soul. I wonder how long it will take for me to recover.”

It was then that Iem thought about something else.

”What will happen to the cultivators and demon beasts in the Foundation Space? They are also part of your Foundation, so letting them exit would affect you as well.”

Zule agreed with Iem.

”That's true. However, there is no need to worry. The reason they want to escape is that my Foundation will eventually collapse if it is kept unattended. However, once I wake up and take the reins, I will immediately stabilize and start to recover it. Obviously, no one inside will need to be afraid of dying because of the collapse anymore.”

Krune couldn't help but say in response.

”I still don't like the idea of keeping everyone inside trapped like that. If they didn't know that there was an outside world, it wouldn't be that bad. But since they know...”

Zule shrugged his shoulders.

”I really can't do much about it. My Foundation is already in that state that you saw. If I allow everyone to leave as well, it will be affected even further.”

Krune sighed and nodded.

”Alright. However, Franlia helped us quite a lot to reach this point. You must at least leave something for her and the Sky Shifting Sect.”

Zule didn't mind and replied.

”That's not a problem. Living beings leaving my Foundation will affect me more gravely than resources.”

Zule then focused his mind on Kun-Peng's body. To be more specific, it was his Foundation Space. Without anyone noticing, several resources that were extremely rare in the outside world disappeared from the Foundation Space.

”I used one of your Spatial Rings. Check it.”

Krune was surprised to hear that. He immediately took out the Spatial Ring Zule mentioned and took a look inside.

”This...”

There were so many resources inside that it would make any of the three sects cry out of happiness.

”Just give it to Franlia. This should help her build her Sect's strength for the next thousands of years or so. As long as she plays her cards right, she will eventually overcome the other two sects.”

Krune smiled after hearing that.

”Hey, what about Krune and me?”

Obviously, the one who asked was Iem. However...

”Weren't you the guy who tried to run away from me before? How come you're asking for something now?”

Back then, Iem didn't want to have anything to do with Zule since he was a Peak Nascent Stars Level Equipment. He even tried to escape without Krune and Zule noticing. In the end, Zule had to put a marker on him and threaten to tell others about his Heavenly Core. Only then did Iem accept his fate and stuck together.

”Ahem... Ancestor Zule, this lowly one was wrong. Such a benevolent Kun-Peng like you wouldn't really take it to heart, right? An ant-like me is not worthy of your contempt.”

Shameless! That's what everyone thought after seeing that scene.

”Alright, stop that. You're making me want to puke.”

Zule then focused on Kun-Peng's body once more before retrieving a few more things from it.

”For a wisp and a cultivator at your level, the best resource would definitely be Top Quality Spirit Stones. I just gave you all of the ones that grew around my body during these years while I've been hibernating.”
