Is that a Wisp?
chapter-322

In fact, Krune had already discussed everything with his group. All they needed was to find a worthy protector. Now that the last obstacle was cleared, he had no need to delay things.

Krune then opened the group chat that he and Ruik were included and immediately shared the information. As soon as he did that, the chat became alive, and several geniuses who were staying on the same planet or solar system quickly replied.

It didn't take long for them to gather together. By the end of the day, those in other cities or outside doing some missions had already returned. They all agreed to discuss this mission in the Mission Hall when everyone was present.

Just as Krune expected, almost all of them had Void Breaking Realm protectors by their side. Some even had more than one. Krune let off a sigh of relief since he was correct in contracting Laex this time.

The others also noticed Laex and couldn't help but be taken aback. Some of them knew Laex from the mission hall. Others even wanted to recruit him to be their protectors while they were staying in the Hakasha Galaxy. But because of his exorbitant price, rarely anyone really opted for him. It made everyone understand that Darten is probably quite wealthy himself.

In the room where they were gathered, a demon beast in the 8th Stage of the Divine Soul came forward to start the talking. His name was Gatu, as for his race, no one knew since he rarely ever returned to his true form.

"Alright, Darten, everyone is already here. Can you give us a better explanation about this Mohie Clan inheritance."

Krune, or better, Darten nodded and then explained everything except for the fact that the Realm was limited to Soul Forging Realm and below. If he had said this much, others would soon understand that he has a fantastic divinator on his side, which might put Feifei in unnecessary danger.

"I see, so we would need to be together if we don't want the Jade Slip in your hands to be stolen by the other owners, correct?"

Darten nodded.

"Exactly. Of course, I don't plan to force anyone to take part in this. As you probably know already, all the Mohie Clan related inheritances are usually very dangerous. Still, if you guys are really looking to temper yourselves and get a lot of resources at the same time, you should really follow me there."

A cultivator in the Soul Forging Realm then commented.

"But who can guarantee that we will be able to find that place? After all, you are still lacking 4 Jade Slips even after putting together the other 13."

Darten nodded once more and continued to explain. He told the group about how there were only 9 jade slips at first, and how the other four appeared after. They are expecting that they might be able to gather all jade slips.

"Of course, this is just a conjecture. In the end, the owners of the other 4 Jade Slips might not appear. Still, considering that this is a Mohie Clan Inheritance, I do believe that it is worth a try. If someone here doesn't wish to, they are free to leave at any time. I won't stop anyone from stepping back."

This group had quite a few geniuses. So, in the end, a few of them left since they didn't want to risk something as dangerous as a Mohie Clan inheritance. Still, over 90% of them remained. Everyone was already expecting that, though. A Mohie Clan Related inheritance is a very tempting matter, even if you include the dangers.

Krune smiled and then said.

"Good, then I'm going to contact the other side and tell them that I will be coming with my group."

Just as Krune was about to take out his communicator, another cultivator came forward to ask something else. His name was Fiarit Yhalan, 9th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm.

"Before that, don't you think it would be better for someone else to hold this Jade Slip that you have? I will be blunt, you are still in the 4th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm, so the Jade Slip should be used by someone stronger."

Krune looked at him and then snorted.

"There is no need for you to worry about me. It was I who found it, so I'm obviously the one holding it. Besides, I'm very confident in my own strength."

Fiarit smiled and then said.

"Is that so? Then why don't we make a bet here? If you can defeat one of my subordinates, I won't complain anymore. But if you lose, then you will have to hand it over to someone else with better abilities."

Krune smiled at him and then said.

"Sure, why not? So who will it be, you?"

Fiarit shook his head.

"Of course not. I'm at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm, it wouldn't be considered fair at all. My subordinates don't have the same combat prowess as me, but they are still several times stronger than those in the same Realm."

Fiarit then looked back at a cultivator and then said.

"Erventik, can I count with you for this?"

Krune looked at him and soon noticed that Erventik is a cultivator at the 6th stage of the Divine Soul Realm. Seeing that, he couldn't help but sigh. Krune was sure that Fiarit wasn't lying and that this Erventik can probably jump one or two stages above his cultivation to fight. Still, he simply wouldn't be his match at all.

Of course, Krune didn't show it on his face. Besides, he didn't know if this guy had some trump card or not, so he will take him seriously as he does with everyone.

Fiarit then looked at everyone else and asked.

"Is there anyone who disagrees with this arrangement?"

No one said anything. Some were even smiling. It was evident that quite a few of them were thinking the same thing as Fiarit.

"Very well, then let's move to one of the arenas in the city. There is no need for a black token here."

Laex looked at Krune, or better, Darten, and then asked through a Divine Sense Message.

"Are you okay with this, Darten? He is two stages higher than you, after all. If you want, I can carry this Jade Slip of yours, and I doubt anyone would complain anymore."

Krune shook his head.

"That is not the problem here. Even though there are several Void Breaking and Soul Forging Realms in this group, our group chat was composed of only Divine Soul Realm Cultivators and Demon Beasts. Those above the Divine Soul Realm are only here as protectors of those geniuses. This display is simply to show who between the geniuses here is worthy of being the leader of the group. The Jade Slip has little to do with it."

Krune then shrugged his shoulders and said.

"But for some reason, he thinks that it would be too much to send someone with a much higher realm than me to fight. Because of that, he entrusted it to his subordinate, who is only 2 stages higher than me. The best outcome will be if his subordinate kills me. That way, he can claim the Jade Slip and the others' approval at the same time. At the very least, he expects that no victor will be found, which is already enough to support his statement that I'm not strong enough."

Laex then asked.

"Are you confident in your abilities?"

Krune smiled and said.

"I will never look down at an opponent, so you don't need to worry. Although I won't be showing my full strength, I will need to make sure that I leave a good impression on the others. I guess I will show a little bit of what I'm capable of."

Laex laughed and then nodded.

"Great! I'm looking forward to seeing a good show. You better not disappoint me, okay?"

Krune laughed as well, and they kept moving to the arena.

On Fiarit's side, he received a Divine Sense message from another genius in their group.

"Are you sure he can deal with Darten? Darten's friend could already use Dream Laws, and he said that he isn't Darten's match."

Fiarit laughed out loud and then answered.

"You are overthinking! That guy called Kiur only won that easily because his opponent didn't know about his Dream Laws, nor did he comprehend any Laws himself. Erventik is different, he does know laws and the existence of the Dream Laws. If they had fought, Erventik would have trashed that Kiur due to their difference in cultivation. Darten probably did the same thing, so it is not like he is really stronger. He simply has higher cultivation, that's all."

They soon arrived at the arena. Krune and Erventik entered it, and the protection formation closed around them. Right after, an automatic voice appeared.

"No Law Zone arena, no one is allowed to intervene, and any outcome is valid. If someone tries to save the other part, they will be punished according to the City Lord's rules. You may start battling at any time."

Erventik didn't waste time and took out a Spear from his Spatial Ring. He then covered it with the metal element and used the Earth Law that he had comprehended to strengthen it. He had comprehended the intermediate stage of the Strength Sub-Law and was now using it in full display. He also used it around his body just in case Krune, or better, Darten used Dream Laws like Kiur. This way, he wouldn't be pulled inside the Dream World.

With everything in place, Erventik immediately charged at Krune. He didn't comprehend any Wind Sub-Laws, but he was still a Wind Element user as well. He used his Wind Movement Technique and quickly approached Krune.

It took some time to describe the process, but it all happened in a split of a second. Erventik was planning to take Darten off guard and finish this fight in a single strike.

Unfortunately for him, Krune was his opponent.

Krune noticed that there wasn't any secret behind that attack. In fact, he could even see that Erventik was really underestimating him.

'Well, even if he wasn't, he would still not be able to do anything to me with this level of strength.'

Krune looked the approaching Erventik and said with a Divine Sense message.

"Earth Laws? I know how to play with them, as well."

Krune then used his index finger to point at Erventik and then to the ground right after.

"DOWN!"

Boom!

Immediately, an immense gravitational pull dragged Erventik's body to the floor of the arena. Outside, the others could only hear the sound of bones breaking.

Earth Sub-Law Advanced Stage, Gravity!

Not only that, but Krune was also using his Earth Essence Sub-Law to increase the power of the Gravity Sub-Law. One must understand that Earth Essence is Krune's only Earth Sub-Law that reached completion.

Erventik tried to use his Spiritual and Elemental source energy to counter-attack the gravity pull, but how could Krune allow him to do that? He increased the gravitational pull even more, and one could hear even more bones breaking.

Krune then slowly walked in Erventik's direction and stopped right beside his head. He then looked back at Fiarit outside the arena and asked.

"Are you sure that sending this guy is enough? Why don't you try it yourself instead? It will be a lot funnier!"
