Is that a Wisp?
chapter-681

During this year, Krune and Iem were pretty much cultivating at the same pace. They went from the 2nd Stage of the Semi-Divinity Realm all the way to the 6th Stage. It was basically a breakthrough every three months. This speed would have been impossible in the Mortal Realm. Of course, Krune still had no idea that the time in the Mortal Realm flowed much faster.

Still, that wasn't all. Krune made sure to use that year to hone his skills too. For example, he reached the Semi-Divinity Stars Level as Blacksmith. It was to be expected, though. Krune finished cutting the Space God Crystal and already sold the extra 70%. With that, he was able to acquire many high-level materials for his practice. It would be weird if he couldn't progress.

Some time ago, he changed the material in his shields to Thousand Year Myriad Lightning Metal from the Myriad Lightning Sect. Not to mention it upgraded his Shields to the Semi-Divinity Stars Level. Considering the Purple Flame Effect, Krune's shields were as strong as Peak Semi-Divinity Stars ones. Of course, the fact that he used Purple Tribulation Lightning and his Shields Formation only made them even more terrifying.

There was another thing that happened during this year. Just as Franlia predicted, the Three Peaks and Flower River sect really sent some people to try to deal with Krune and Iem. However, Franlia had created a protection perimeter around those two, so all the attempts failed. In the end, the two sects dropped the idea. They will need to wait for those two to leave the city or sect first before trying anything.

Krune and Iem kept waiting for Franlia's call about the Dimensional Realm where the Demon Beast's Corpse was located. A month later, they finally receive some news through their communicators.

"Come to Tulike's house this night. There have been some problems."

They canceled whatever they had planned for that night and went straight there. During this last year, they didn't go out to train even once. That's not because they were afraid of being found by the Three Peaks or the Flower River, but because they didn't need to. It was better to cultivate and jump a few levels first. Besides, there will probably be no lack of fights when they find the Demon Beast Corpse Dimensional Realm.

The night quickly arrived, and the two paid a visit to Tulike's house. There, Franlia and Rag were already waiting.

"Oh, you are here."

"Did Sect Master find the place where the Dimensional Realm was located?"

Franlia nodded.

"I did. However, there is a problem. There are several members of the Flower River Sect around the area. Not only them, but we found a few scouts of the Three Peaks Sect too. It seems like they also know that the Dimensional Realm is there."

Krune and Iem narrowed their eyes.

"To be honest, I don't think that this is too surprising. There should be no way inside the Dimensional Realm. However, they also lost members inside the Demon Beast's Corpse, so they might have used similar methods to encounter the place. They know it is not possible to open a passage, but what about their enemies? With that idea in mind, they stationed themselves there just in case someone trying to pull their leg."

In the Flower River Sect case, it was 'Zule' who told them the exact location of the Dimensional Realm. However, the Three Peaks had really done what Krune just mentioned. Of course, the Flower River Sect was the first one to arrive in the area due to their privileged information. But in the end, they also couldn't open a passage. Let alone the Three Peaks Sect that arrived later.

Franlia then nodded after hearing Krune's words.

"Indeed. I was also expecting that they would appear there. That being said, I spent a lot of resources and time trying to find that place before any of them. However, it seems like I still underestimated their abilities. I don't know if they spent a lot more than me or not, but the fact is that they are an obstacle now. Also, nothing can guarantee that they don't have a way in either. It's only my speculation that it should be impossible with their strength."

Iem then asked.

"Still, a Dimensional Realm capable of holding such a big body is bound to be enormous. How big is the area that we can use to access the Dimensional Realm?"

Franlia pondered a bit before saying.

"I believe it should be around thirteen thousand kilometers. It looks big. However, it is located in outer space. Also, Tosely found out that a God Core Realm Elder of each sect was watching over it. With their Divine Sense, there is no way we can hide anything in that place."

It was then that Krune thought about something.

"Wait! If that is the case, I'm sure both of them built some residences so that they could spend their time there too, right?"

Franlia nodded.

"They did."

Krune then continued.

"In that case, why don't we just make the same thing and use a Formation to block any Divine Sense probation?"

Franlia sighed after hearing that.

"It's not gonna work. Neither of them is using this kind of formation there. That's because it would make the other side think that you might be planning something. Before we even arrived there, the two Sects had already agreed that no one can hide anything inside that area. I could only reluctantly agree about it with them as well. After all, if I insisted, it would be the same as saying that I can enter while they can't. Do you think they would let us stay hidden there as if we were doing nothing?"

"What about making something outside their perception range and then getting inside with it?"

"That's too difficult. Both of them have several disciples patrolling the entire extension of the place."

Things got quite complicated because of that. The Flower River and Three Peaks made sure to prevent any gaps from appearing in their watching. Franlia, of course, also left her own scouts and Tosely there to watch as well. First, it was to watch the other two sects. Second, it was to pretend that they also did not have a way in and were just observing.

"Is there really no other way?"

Franlia sighed and shook her head. The reason she called the two of them here was that they might have a way to do it.

Krune and Iem had Luvile and Harold's power. They could hide from any Divine Sense. However, the process of opening a gap into the Dimensional Realm is anything but simple. The commotion that it would generate is far from what Krune and Iem could cover alone.

Even if possible, one must remember that Purple Tribulation lightning and Devil Flames are quite catchy. It would be way too easy to spot in outer space where there are no places to hide.

Just as they were about to give up, Zule's voice echoed in Krune and Iem's head.

'If you know the Space-Time location, then I have a way to get us in without having to be there. However, I will still need your tribulation powers to open a hole in the Dimensional Realm barrier.'

Krune was taken aback.

'Really? No, wait! Wouldn't it reveal your existence to others instead? Don't forget that no one can know about you. Otherwise, we are fucked!'

Zule then explained.

'Don't worry, we just need to be somewhat close to the place. I can go inside your Divine Soul and use my power from there. To be more specific, I will lend you my power for your own use. That way, others will think that it is you who is doing that, not me.'

Krune and Iem's eyes lit up.

'Great! How does it work?'

'To be honest, it isn't that hard. As you probably know, Godly Energy in outer space is quite scarce. That makes the opening of Spatial Gates much easier. What I'm going to have you do is to make something similar. Instead of opening a Spatial Gate that connects two points in the same space, you will open a Spatial Gate that will connect to the barrier of that Dimensional Realm. Think about it as an underground tunnel to avoid the eyes of those on the surface.'

Krune and Iem understood.

'Alright. How close do we need to be?'

'That will depend on how much risk you want to take. As I said, I need to open a tunnel that connects to the barrier of the Dimensional Realm. The closer we are, the smaller the tunnel. Obviously, the smaller the tunnel, the harder it will be for others to notice the changes in the Space Laws in the area. The further we are, the bigger the tunnel. As you can imagine, it will be easier to notice.'

Krune nodded and then asked.

'How close do we have to be for it to be safe?'

'No more than ten thousand km.'

Krune then looked at Franlia and explained everything to her.

"What?! How can you do such a thing?!"

Krune smiled before coming up with an excuse.

"It's basically a fusion of mine and Iem's Tribulation Powers. However, we can't be more than ten thousand kilometers away from the Dimensional Realm. Does sect master think that it is possible to hide in this range?"

Franlia understood that Krune and Iem wouldn't speak more than that. However, it mattered little since what mattered was that they could do it.

"Hmph! If it was inside the searching area, it would be very difficult. However, since you gave me an extra ten thousand km radius, then I can definitely make it work. Stay in the sect for now. I will arrange everything."

A few days later, Franlia took Krune and Iem outside Zamaria Plannet without anyone noticing.
