Is that a Wisp?
chapter-556

The Sacred Lands back in the Luvile Universe were jumping in happiness. If Krune acquires 3 victories, he is pretty much guaranteed to get a slot for the Dalin Universe. How could they not be excited? Krune won two in a row already!

In the Divine Path Sect, other than Lucio, Krune's friends, and even Lakin watched the combats. They had know Krune for the longest, so they weren't so surprised to that extent. That wisp had always been a freak, after all.

"Master doesn't seem like having any issues."

Shinja nodded.

"Well, it looks like the Dalin Universe did wonders. I definitely wouldn't be able to do anything to him at the moment. He really left me far behind."

Ao shrugged his shoulders.

"Not only you but all of us."

He then looked at Lucio before commenting.

"It probably won't take too long before he beats sect master."

Lucio's mouth twitched.

"Hmph! As if I would him give a chance."

Back in the Dalin Universe, Laka and Jovlare fought the last battle of the second round. Both were melee demon beasts and Heavenly Divine Soul Owners. Jovlare's cultivation was higher, but Laka had Krune's Purple Flame Dragon Pearl. Considering that their cultivation was just a single stage of difference, Laka was able to suppress Jovlare without many complications. In part, it was thanks to the fact that Hanan gave up the first battle, so Laka was in his Peak Condition. Besides, Laka found Jovlare to be a little weaker than Fabio, who he fought before.

The Third round started right after. Hanan and Iem Turo were the first ones to go up. Hanan then immediately gave up, just like Iem's previous opponents. No one felt confident enough to take the Heavenly Race Member head-on. Waka Ulin and Sara Qanze were the next ones. Sara was a Long-Ranged attacker, while Waka was a melee one.

Waka cut through everything in his path, quickly reaching Sara. He didn't even need to use the Dimensional Severing to deal with her. From the very start, their difference in power was evident. Waka was just too strong. Even Sule, who was a demon beast who exceeded in defense, was cut by him, let alone Sara.

Sara tried to keep her distance while harassing him. Now that Krune wasn't present, she also used the Pair of Purple Flame Chakrams. But even that was not enough to stop Waka.

In the end, Waka achieved victory without having to pay any high price. Sara, on the other hand, felt gloomy. This is already the third round, but she hasn't got a single victory yet. Her Universe protector couldn't help but shook his head too. She still had another 4 fights ahead, though. It wasn't over.

The third battle just so happened to be Krune and Laka!

"Hahaha! I can finally fight you. No holding back, understood?"

Krune laughed as well.

"Well, if you are saying that I can't hold back..."

The very moment the battle started, Laka's Purple Flame Dragon Pearl went out of control! Laka was alarmed by that, but he had already fused with if. It began to cause havoc inside Laka's body, making him far from being able to do anything. In just a few exchanges, Krune completely trashed Laka.

There was no helping it. Not only Laka couldn't use the Purple Flame Dragon Pearl, but it also attacked him from inside instead. At that moment, he became as weak as a Heavenly Fragment Owner instead of a Heavenly Divine Soul one.

"I give up!"

As unwilling as Laka could be, he didn't have another choice. This was not a fight to start with, but a single side massacre. Laka couldn't help but blurt out.

"Shameless! You controlled my Purple Flame Dragon Pearl!"

Krune, on the other hand, laughed even more.

"It was you who said that I shouldn't hold back, so why are you complaining?"

Laka couldn't come with an excuse after hearing that.

"Hmph!"

He turned around and left the arena.

Although Krune was laughing, he didn't really cause Laka any serious injures. By the time he needs to fight again, he should be fully recovered. It was more like a lot of pain instead of any real damage. Krune liked Laka's straightforward personality. That shameless mix of Dragon and Phoenix always put his heart on everything. Because of that, he hoped he could get a Dalin Universe slot. Of course, if the Frunkan Clan's plan worked, his Universe won't be able to enjoy it for long. No one from outside will.

Sule and Jovlare, the two demon beasts, fought the last battle of the third round. In the end, Sule was the winner, achieving his first victory in the final phase.

By now, the power rank was pretty much determined. Iem was considered the strongest, Krune was second, while Laka, Waka, and Hanan had similar strengths. Sara, Sule, and Jovlare were at the short end of the stick.

In the fourth round, Laka and Jovlare fought first. Not too surprisingly for the spectators, Laka was the winner. In head-on combat, Laka's Purple Flame Dragon Pearl was simply too much for the other part to resist.

Iem Turo once again won his battle. This time, he fought against Sule. Sule still tried to see if he could fight against Iem with his Water and Ice Domain and his powerful defense, but it turned out that it was useless. Iem's Heavenly Domain suppressed his own way too easily. Not to mention the crystalization ability, which could destroy his defense as if it was made of paper.

Hanan went against Sara. Knowing her predicament, Sara decided to use a forbidden technique to bring Hanan down at all costs. Unfortunately, she was weaker than Hanan to start with. When she used her Forbidden Technique, Hanan did the same. In the end, the difference in power continued, and the battle was over with Hanan as the winner.

With that, Hanan achieved his third victory, which also pretty much guaranteed the Frunkan Clan's Universe a slot for Dalin.

Krune once again trashed his opponent without regard. The combination of Purple Tribulation Lightning and Domain wasn't something the others could fight against easily. Thanks to that, he now had 4 victories.

The Fifth round started, and the first fight was Krune against Iem Turo! Krune was planning to give up all the fights from now on. The way things progressed, he simply doesn't need any more victories. Even if he loses the next three battles, he would still get a Dalin Slot anyway. But just as he was about to follow this plan, Light Spirit stopped him.

"Don't give up, fight him."

Krune was taken aback, so he immediately asked.

"I already have four victories. Is there a reason you want me to fight Iem?"

Light Spirit confirmed.

"There is, but I'm not sure why. While you were fighting the other participants, I felt a strange power coming from him. It seemed like he was very focused on my Purple Tribulation Lightning too. I want to see what it is."

Krune didn't know why Light Spirit was interested in that, but he decided to agree with his request.

"Well, if I'm going to fight the strongest participant, I might as well go all out."

The judge saw that the two were ready.

"Begin!"

At the very start, a shocking scene appeared. Iem Turo had activated his Heavenly Domain straight away. Not only that, but his entire body also crystallized. His carefree expression was utterly gone, and powerful ripples of spiritual energy came out of his body. Anyone could tell, Iem Turo was planning to go all out from the very start!

"Krune, right? Don't you dare to give up! Everything you showed until now is far from being your real combat ability. I want you to show me everything."

Krune laughed at that. Iem had really been paying a lot of attention to him.

"Very well. I was indeed planning to give up since I don't need any more victories. But because of a coincidence, I'm forced to fight you as well. Be careful, I won't hold back either."

Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Light, and Purple Tribulation Lightning. All Krune's Domain came out one after another. Immediately, Iem Turo's Heavenly Domain, which suppressed all others in the past, lost its imposing power.

"Rainbow Domain!"

Immediately, the entire audience went in an uproar. Everyone believed that Krune could use more than one Domain at the same time, but not all six of them. Doesn't that mean that he is almost on par with Iem Turo? No, by the looks on it, Iem Turo's Heavenly Domain seems to be losing to Krune's Rainbow Domain!

"Hahaha! Great! Your Domain can eat the opponent's Domain's laws to strengthen itself. Even my Heavenly Domain is being affected by it. You are the first one at the same level as me to force my Domain back. No! You are two Stages below me and still got a small advantage. Just how strong would you be if you were at the Peak of the Divine path Realm?"

Iem Turo was beaming.

"However, if you think that this is the limit of my Domain, you are underestimating me way too much."

Suddenly, Iem's Heavenly Domain was enshrouded by Black Flames. However, this was not a combination of Fire and Dark Laws/Elements. Far from that!

As soon as that appeared, Light Spirit's voice echoed in Krune's mind.

"The Devil Flame God!"

Right after, Krune's Domain lost its advantage. His Law Eating Sub-law of the Rainbow Domain was having a tough time doing it against Iem's Domain. If anything, Krune's Rainbow Domain was being slightly suppressed instead!
