Chapter 710: Opening a Hole (1/2)

With that, their negotiation was done with. Luvile and Harold's bodies then returned to their previous forms before entering Krune and Iem's bodies once again. The pressure in the room then quickly disappeared, making everything go back to normal. Only then did Lila and Zuitou let out a sigh of relief. They felt like they were walking on the edge of a blade all the time.

Lila then looked at Krune and Iem before showing a smile.

”I'm happy that your Masters are such reasonable cultivators. You don't need to worry. We will keep our side of the deal. As long as you open that chamber, the second and third picks are yours to take. Also, I can guarantee that not a single word will get out regarding this trade or whatever you got there. Of course, I hope that neither of you say anything about what you see there. After all, this is directly connected to the safety of our Kalame Sect.”

Iem and Krune didn't mind as they nodded.

”Don't worry. If we did that, you could spread the news about our masters. If that happens, we would be in bigger danger than your Sect is.”

Lila agreed with them.

”Very well. If you don't have anything else to do, we can go to that chamber right away.”

Krune and Iem looked at each other before looking back at Lila.

”It's okay. We have nothing else to do at the moment anyway.”

Lila then looked at Zuitou before saying.

”You will come as well. As the sect master, you need to know what is in there. One day, I will ascend or die trying, so it will be your job to decide what to do with that place.”

Zuitou nodded and looked at Latam.

”You can go back. If anyone asks anything, you know what to do.”

”Yes, Sect Master.”

After Latam left, Lila made a slashing movement with her hand in mid-air. That movement had then parted space in half, opening a Spatial Gate right after.

”Come with me.”

As the Ancestor of the Kalame Sect, Lila had access to all the sealed places. None of the Sect's Protection Formations would stop her from going anywhere she wanted. That being said, she connected that Spatial Gate directly to the place where the chamber was located.

Krune and Iem passed through it with Zuitou, appearing on the other side in just a second. Lila followed them from behind.

As soon as they appeared on the other side, Krune and Iem were taken aback. They were expecting something enormous, a giant building or something like that. However, it turned out that it was relatively small. No bigger than a standard room you'd find in a city of low-level cultivators. If you tried to fit several people inside, it wouldn't allow more than 15 people or so to squeeze in there.

Krune tried to use his Divine Sense to check it, but it was blocked. Of course, Krune already expected this. That being said, he switched to his Mental Energy scan. As a different power from Divine Sense, perhaps the chamber would not be able to block it. At least, Divine Sense blocking formations were not able to do so.

Unfortunately, he came to understand that his Mental Energy couldn't go in either. However, it was not the formations on the chamber that blocked his Mental Energy, but the chamber materials instead. The thing that the room was made of seemed to be immune to Mental Energy scans. Of course, that left Krune very surprised. That was the first time he had encountered anything other than Godly Energy itself that could completely block Mental Energy. Well, there was Luvile and Harold's power too, but that probably had something to do with their Law Destroying or Eating properties.

That chamber shone with the color of gold. Also, Krune and Iem could tell just how many formations were present in this thing. The weird part was that although the formations seemed to be working at full power, there was no Godly Energy entering it from outside.

Lila knew what Krune and Iem were thinking, so she explained.

”We tried to cut any access that it had to Godly Energy before and then attack it, trying to spend its energy. However, it didn't matter how many times we attack. The formations and materials making up the whole thing didn't even budge. We finally reached the conclusion that whatever is generating Godly Energy to these formations must be inside.”

Those words immediately made Krune and Iem think about Kun-peng's Silver Core. That thing didn't need the outside world's Godly Energy. Instead, it created Godly Energy by itself. Of course, Luvile and Harold, who were inside their foundations, heard that as well.
