Chapter 701: Leaving (1/2)
Back to the present time, everyone looked astonished at the giant Kun-Peng awakening while trying to escape. However, the enormous body of Kun-Peng suddenly began to shrink at high speeds. At the same time, the effects caused by its body in the Dimensional Realm were also reduced. In just a few seconds, the giant Kun-Peng disappeared, in its place, a naked man's body. Considering Zule's real cultivation, changing back into his human form wasn't really that hard to do.
Zule looked in the distance and noticed the various groups. Then, with a wave of his hand, the Spatial Laws around them froze, locking every single member in place. Even the God Core Realm cultivators and demon beasts were utterly helpless under it.
He then examined the groups and found what he was looking for.
The Seal that the other 'Zule' gave to Binmia left her spatial ring on its own, heading right back to Zule. It then entered his body, completely disappearing.
Binmia was frightened by that. After all, she thought that the Zule in front of her was the same one who had escaped before. Of course, this Zule absorbed the previous 'Zule,' so he had all of his memories about his time with Binmia. He then pondered for a split of a second if he should do something to Binmia but eventually decided to not do anything.
Once that was done, Zule looked at the four Celestial Organization Leaders and their four subordinates. Immediately, they felt a chill on their back, afraid of what Zule might try to do with them. After all, they left his Foundation Space without permission. Zule didn't know the effect that those four coming out could have, so he immediately took them back.
Spatial Laws converged around the four Celestial Organization Leaders and their subordinates. Soon after, they were once more teleported back into Zule's foundation.
The four leaders looked around with their Divine Senses and were taken aback.
”We're back?”
”Wait! Where are the Formations' Cores?!”
It was then that they noticed that the cores were nowhere to be found. That was to be expected, though. Those Cores were made with a part of Zule's, or Kun-Peng's Silver Core. Naturally, Zule fused them back to his Core.
Nevertheless, Jamot and the others didn't see what was really happening inside the Planet's Core. There, the power of a Soul ignited like a phoenix rebirthing through flames! That one wasn't Zule's Soul. Every cultivator or demon beast in the Divine Soul Realm or above had a Divine Soul. For those at the God Realm, they would evolve it into Godly Divine Souls. However, the one inside Zule's Planet Core was definitely much more powerful than any of those. Even Luvile's Godly Divine Soul at its peak would be akin to a flickering firefly in front of it.
The moment that Soul awakened, the chaotic Foundation Space outside the Planet immediately stabilized. The same Foundation Space that was very close to collapsing completely. Only the size of a Solar System remained after so many years. However, together with the new Soul, the Foundation Space began to expand at a frightening speed! With that Soul now alive, Zule was able to start recovering his Foundation Space.
But that wasn't everything that happened. Suddenly, everyone inside Zule's Foundation Space heard his voice.
”There is no need for the Celestial Protection Formation anymore. I'll be taking it away.”
As soon as he said that, the Celestial Protection Formation that protected the Planet for countless years shattered! Obviously, the entire population of the Planet was frightened by that. However, the chaotic space that the formation protected against didn't exist anymore, so nothing happened.
Well, there was something that happened.
*Shuwa!*
Immediately, the Godly Energy present in outer space descended on the entire Planet. Until now, the Celestial Organizations had been controlling the amount of Godly Energy present in the Planet with the Celestial Protection Formation. Thanks to that, no one outside the Celestial Organization could go over the 1st Stage of the Transformation Realm. However, it seemed like that won't be the case anymore.
Right after that, Zule's voice resounded once more.
”With that, everyone will have a chance to cultivate correctly. I better not see the Celestial Organizations trying to block everyone's Godly Energy anymore.”
And with that said, Zule's voice disappeared. No one knew what would happen there from now on.
Back in the outside world, things were not so calm. Suddenly, cracks spanning several hundred kilometers began to appear in space-time. Those were not Spatial Tears but something much worse. Even Gods like Luvile or Harold felt a chill in their souls when they saw that.
Zule couldn't help but sigh when he saw that. He then looked at Krune's group and sent them a Divine Sense message.
'The Four Realms can't hold the power of my existence for much longer... it's time to leave.'
Krune and Iem nodded slightly. They knew that this would be the outcome, after all.
'May we meet once again outside the Four Realms.'
Zule smiled and waved his hand once more. In front of him, another Spatial Gate seemed to have the same power as the Spatial Cracks around it appeared. Zule didn't mind and immediately entered it. The Spatial Gate then closed on his back, making him disappear from everyone's sight.
As soon as Zule left, the space-time cracks began to heal themselves, disappearing in just a few minutes.
Franlia, Binamia, Aragan, and everyone else felt their frozen bodies being freed after that.
”This... the demon beast... left?”
”The Celestial Organization Leaders also disappeared.”
