Chapter 813: What to do with it (1/2)
Barlo then looked at Krune before throwing something in his direction.
Krune extended his hand and grabbed it. It was a runestone. Krune rarely ever used them, especially after reaching his level. Nevertheless, he could recognize it straight away. However, he could sense a tremendous amount of power coming from inside it.
'No, it isn't just power. There are also Spatial Laws present on it. It's just that these Spatial Laws... Aren't they too similar to Zule's? What is this thing?'
Krune looked at Barlo with a puzzled expression.
”Senior Barlo, what's this for?”
Barlo then explained.
”This is something I got back in the God Realm. Has Luvile ever told you about the gigantic phenomenon in the sky of the God Realm?”
Krune nodded. Of course, he knew of it. That was the only way out of the Four Realms. It was also why the Lokrathos Universe was destroyed since its foundation had one of its exit keys. The fact was that Krune probably knew more about it than Barlo himself.
”I know. What about it?”
Barlo continued.
”That makes things faster. I found this runestone close to it. I thought I was quite lucky back then to find this treasure. However, I just couldn't figure out what it was even after researching it for many years. It was then that the Unigan Universe called me in the God Realm. Without any choice, I had to go down once again. Well, you know the story. I lost conscience, and when I woke up again, everything was already over.”
”However, it was just a little bit after I woke up that I found that this stone was no treasure. Well, at least it wasn't a treasure for anyone in the God Realm.”
Krune became puzzled.
”What's this, then?”
Barlo smiled before saying.
”This runestone is directly connected to the God Realm's Spatial Laws somehow. Simply put, it can open a passage directly to the God Realm without the need of having the necessary cultivation to ascend.”
Krune felt like he was struck by lightning when he heard that. However, he didn't doubt Barlo's words. After all, he could indeed feel Zule's Primordial Kun-Peng's Spatial Powers inside. He just didn't expect that this runestone had such power.
”This... Why are you giving me this?”
Barlo sighed as he answered.
”That's because I went to see the place where the Unigan Universe was before. As you know, once a Universe is destroyed, its remnants become the base of a new Universe. However, that Universe there wasn't Unigan anymore. It has been so long that the new Universe has already stabilized and even has its own living beings all around.”
”That said, I simply have nothing more to do in this Mortal Realm. I decided that I'm going back to the God Realm after I finish talking with you.”
Krune still didn't understand.
”That doesn't explain why you're giving me this.”
Barlos scratched the back of his head.
”Can't you understand? This is my way of saying thank you.”
”Thank you? But I didn't do anything.”
”Of course you did! It was because of you that I was finally free from the seal in the Luvile Universe. If you didn't help Luvile all the way, who knows how much longer I would have to wait. Maybe I would really stay there forever, never knowing as to what happened outside.”
Barlo continued.
”When I first got out, I didn't have a head to think about anything else. But this last year made me think about a lot of things. In any case, I understood that I never got to thank you for the help you gave me, even if it wasn't your intention. That being said, I remembered this runestone I got in the God Realm. It's useless for anyone in the God Realm. After all, we don't need it to ascend again. Still, it's a huge treasure for those below, so just take it. It's not like I'm losing anything from this. If you still think you can't accept it, then just take it as payment for the communicator you gave me.”
Krune couldn't help but swallow a bit of saliva. Just how much effort would this runestone save him? Of course, he had to prepare many things before using the runestone. For example, other than him, Luvile, and Soren, the others would be crushed by the extremely high concentration of Godly Energy of that place. He would need to discuss it with Luvile and the others first.
”Senior, I will accept this gift. It's quite important for me.”
Barlo nodded, not minding it too much.
”Oh, right! This runestone can only be used one more time. It had two charges before, but I used one to test it out. That was quite a waste.”
Finally, he decided to leave.
