Is that a Wisp?
chapter-683

During this year that Zule had been confined, he used the Top Quality Godly Stones to raise his cultivation. The surprising thing about it was that usually, a lot of the God Stone's energy would be lost if used by low-level cultivators or demon beasts. Let alone that 'Zule,' who was still in the Core Formation Realm. Someone at that level would definitely waste more than 90% of it.

However, Binmia didn't know how, but 'Zule' didn't let even a drop of Godly Energy go to waste. That was something that even Krune and Iem couldn't achieve. Also, it seemed like the element of the Top Quality Godly Stone didn't matter either. This 'Zule' used those hundred Top Quality Godly Stones to the fullest.

In the end, he went from the Core Formation Realm all the way to the Divine Path. Binmia and the other elders who knew about 'Zule' were shocked by his speed. It was simply heaven-defyingly fast. No one they knew would be able to do such a thing even if they had an unlimited supply of Top Quality Godly Stones. From the looks of it, 'Zule's' cultivation only stopped increasing because he sucked all those hundred stones dry.

In the end, they decided that they definitely wouldn't give him any more of those Stones unless absolutely necessary. 'Zule,' of course, wasn't surprised by that reaction. Still, he now has some power. He only needs a chance now.

'Zule' smiled and then turned to one of the guards in the chamber before asking.

"Tell Binmia that a passage will soon be open to the Dimensional Realm where my body is."

As one can imagine, Binmia rushed back to where 'Zule' was as fast as possible.

"What do you mean a passage will open? Didn't you say that only the gathering of several Nascent God Realm cultivators and demon beasts could force an opening?"

'Zule' nodded.

"That was supposed to be the case, but it seems like I was wrong. Anyway, this is not a bad thing. I can use this to bring you guys inside. What do you think?"

Binmia narrowed her eyes.

"Are you telling me to bring you together? Don't be ridiculous! That is your body. If I get you there, who knows what will happen. Tell me where the entrance is, and we will deal with it."

'Zule' laughed, already expecting that answer.

"Three hundred Top Quality Godly Energy Stones."

"What?!"

Binmia almost vomited blood when she heard that.

"There is no way in hell I'll give you this amount of stones. If you know what is good for you, you better be obedient and tell where it is now."

'Zule' shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, whether others get inside my body or not will make no difference for me. Good luck while others leave you behind."

Binmia then released her Godly Energy and locked 'Zule' in place.

"Now that I think about it, your cultivation has improved a lot recently. Certainly, your Soul has recovered a lot too. I wonder if it can already resist a Soul Search."

'Zule' smiled before nodding.

"There is no need to wonder. My Soul at the moment can definitely resist a Soul Search. Too bad, though. No one in this Godly Path Realm will ever be able to break through my defenses. Well, I welcome you to try. Hahaha!"

Binmia narrowed her eyes.

"It seems like you are not afraid of being destroyed here, uh?"

'Zule' looked at Binmia with a puzzled expression.

"Destroyed? What are you talking about? There is no way you will destroy me. It would be way too bad for your own plans. I know way too much for you to give up. Hahaha!"

Binmia slimed after hearing that.

"Is that so? Well, I can still put a soul-destroying seal that I can activate anytime I wish. Even if you were at the same level as me, it would still kill you instantly."

'Zule' shook his head, though.

"Why are you pretending? You had already done it a long time ago. Do you really think that the seal you left in my Soul Fragment before I woke up was that well hidden? You overestimate your puny existence."

Binmia narrowed her eyes again.

"As expected, you knew about it. Anyway, I won't give you even a single extra stone anymore. It will be too risky if I let your cultivation improve any further than that."

'Zule' didn't mind.

"Then come back again when you change your mind. Just remember that the conditions might not be the same when that happens. By the way, the passage will open in three days or so. You can either give me the Godly Stones or bring me with you. Well, you have this soul-destroying seal in my Soul, don't you? Then there should be no problem for you to bring me inside either. It's up to you which option you will select."

Binmia then turned around and left.

On the same day, the Flower River Sect's disciples and elders began an extensive search in the area where the Dimensional Realm was located. The Three Peaks and Sky Shifting Sects obviously noticed the change and probed their intentions. However, the elders of the Flower River Sect refrained from commenting.

Tosely then contacted Franlia, who was inside the Concealing Formation.

"Understood. I'll have the elders here reinforce the concealment formation. Just stay there and pretend to keep investigating. There is a good chance that they know something is happening to the Spatial Barrier. However, they don't know where or who is doing it. Or, to be more specific, they are not sure about it. Otherwise, Binmia would definitely have called Aragan and me out already. The fact she didn't mean she is not sure of whatever it is happening."

Tosely nodded.

"Alright. Fortunately, this extensive search is being done in the area inside the Dimensional Realm range. They won't find anything in there. However, she will probably increase the range of the search, so Sect Master better be careful."

Franlia then ended the communication and looked at Krune and Iem.

"It seems like the Flower River Sect is suspicious of something. How long until the hole is finished?"

Krune then asked the same question to Zule, who was inside his Divine Soul. A moment later, he answered.

"We believe that it will take at least another two days. This barrier is way too resistant. We also have to keep the output of Tribulation Lightning and Devil Flames. If we stop for even a second, the barrier will start to heal straight away. Because of that, we can't go all out either. We need to keep a balance between recovery and output."

Franlia nodded her head.

"That should be fast enough. It will take much longer to investigate further enough to reach our location."

With that said, Franlia continued to help hide the Spatial Fluctuations as the elders maintained the concealment formation.

Soon, a day and a half passed. Still, Binmia's subordinates couldn't find any clue inside the area where the Dimensional Realm was located. She tried to increase the range of search, but that only made things even slower. Every minute that she didn't find this so-called entrance, the more nervous she became.

'Is there really an entrance being opened?'

Finally, she lost her patience and returned to where 'Zule' was staying.

"Alright. I'll give you 300 Godly Stones if you can tell me where the entrance is."

'Zule' laughed out loud as he shook his head.

"That was the price two days ago. Now, the conditions have changed."

Binmia's killing intent increased after hearing that. However, she quickly calmed herself before asking.

"What is it?"

'Zule' then got up and stretched his back before saying.

"Well, it is time to pay a visit to my old body. That being said, bring me together."

Binmia immediately shook her head.

"Do you take me for a fool?"

'Zule' nodded without even thinking.

"I do. Otherwise, you would have accepted my first offer before. Now, you only have one choice, bring me with you. If you don't want it, then you can simply leave me here, as you always did. Either way, it is not like I'm losing anything."

Binmia gritted her teeth. Reason told her that bringing this guy back to where his body was would be a terrible idea. However, the risk of the other sects entering the Demon Beast's body without her was just as bad.

'Zule' noticed Binmia's dilemma.

"Why are you so afraid? Didn't you put a Soul-Destroying Seal on me? If I really do something, you can simply wipe me out."

Binmia snorted.

"Since that is the case, why would you want to go there? Do you want me to believe you are just going sightseeing?"

'Zule' immediately shook his head.

"Of course not. Only an idiot would believe something like that. I'm going there to acquire some of my blood to help recover my Soul Power. The Top Quality Godly Stones are far from enough to have a good effect. There, are you happy now?"

Binmia didn't seem the least bit happier. Still, she decided that she might as well go with these conditions since this 'Zulke' definitely wasn't afraid of dying.

"Fine, but I will put another restriction in your body. If your distance from me gets higher than a hundred meters, the Soul-Destroying Seal will immediately activate. At that point, even I won't be able to stop it."

'Zule' pondered a bit and nodded.

"You are quite the scared cat, aren't you? Well, that makes you look quite cute, though. Alright, a restriction it is."
