Is that a Wisp?
chapter-706

Back in the Sky Shifting Sect, Franlia was already waiting for the two of them. Other than her, there was another man Iem and Krune had never seen before. The surprising part was that Franlia didn't have her usual calm expression. Well, Krune and Iem's faces weren't that much better either.

"Good, good. You came. This person beside me is Latam Zanca. He is from the Liva Planet, which is also part of our Solar System. He wanted to meet you two, so I had to call you over in a hurry."

However, it was at this moment that Franlia noticed Krune's Divinity Realm 3rd Stage cultivation. Obviously, she was shocked by that. One of the God Foundation Realm cultivators and demon beasts with Krune and Iem then sent Franlia a Divine Sense Message telling what had happened. Of course, they just said that Krune had made a breakthrough into the Divinity Realm, and then his cultivation began to grow right after, stopping at that point.

Still, Franlia refrained from asking anything at the moment. There were bigger issues to deal with now.

Krune and Iem didn't know who the man was. But to make Franlia become like that, he definitely wasn't anyone simple.

The guy then looked directly at Krune and Iem before asking.

"I'm a Sect Elder from the Kalame Sect. Our Sect Master found out about the collapse of that Dimensional Realm in outer space, so he sent me to investigate. According to what we found, it was thanks to your help that the Dimensional Realm was open in the first place, correct?"

Krune and Iem looked at Franlia, who immediately shook her head and sent them a Divine Sense message.

'It wasn't anyone from our Sky Shifting Sect. Still, it seems like he only knows that you helped open the Dimensional Realm. He has no idea about what was inside, so I haven't said anything about the Demon Beast's corpse. I simply told him what Binmia, Aragan, and I decided beforehand. That it was the remains of a ruin. As for who told them about the fact that you opened the Dimensional Realm, that I don't know. Of course, if I were to guess, it would have been Binmia.'

Iem and Krune heard that and returned their attention to Latam.

"We did help open it, indeed."

Latam nodded and then continued.

"We analyzed the spatial storm created by that realm's collapse. In the end, we reached the conclusion that only the effort of several Nascent God Realm cultivators and demon beasts could possibly have a chance of forcing an aperture. Not only that, but they would need to use brute force too. However, with your Divinity and Semi-Dinivity Realm cultivations, the two of you were able to create a hole into it. How was that possible?"

Krune shrugged his shoulder before saying.

"That's a secret. We have no reason to answer that."

Iem, obviously, agreed with Krune. Who would go around telling others about their own secrets?

Latam snorted in response.

"You can tell me now, or I can bring you back and force the answer out of you."

Krune and Iem narrowed their eyes. Even though this guy said those words, Franlia only showed a bitter smile. It was apparent that this Latam's background was a lot scarier than they thought. Still, she tried to give them some help.

"Ahem... Elder Latam, there is no need to be this angry with two juniors, alright? They are just doing what any other cultivator or demon beast would, protecting their own secrets. Elder Latam definitely has his own secrets that you don't want others to know too."

Latam narrowed his eyes and nodded in the end.

"Very well. I don't really care what method you used anyway. Our Sect Master noticed a gap in the laws of that collapsed Dimensional Realm. He believes that that specific place is where you opened a passage into the Dimensional Realm. From what he said, the laws around that point had been destroyed. All I need to know is if you really have the power to destroy laws."

"Also, I heard before coming here that you two might have a much stronger background than the Sky Shifting Sect. Franlia was unwilling to tell which one, afraid that she would be implicated. To be honest, my Kalame Sect doesn't give a damn either. All you need to know is that my Kalame Sect is also a Nascent God Realm power. We have no need to be afraid of others. Using your background to frighten me will be useless."

Krune and Iem felt like laughing for a second. What background? They had nothing like that. Still, they were happy that Franlia still stood her ground and made it look like they really had a more powerful force behind. Considering that the opponent was a Nascent God Realm Power, she already did a lot by refusing to tell the truth about their lack of any stronger organization to protect them. Still, she can't buy a fight with a Nascent God Realm at this point. She needed time for Rag to make his breakthrough first.

Krune then looked at Iem and let him come up with what to say. Iem was a lot better than him at finding excuses.

"Don't worry, Elder Latam. We also have no intention of using our backgrounds to start a fight. First of all, our elders would probably not began a war just because of the two of us. It's just that due to the restrictions in our bodies, we can't say anything about them either. It's part of our training. Anyway, both of us have indeed inherited skills capable of destroying laws. Why do you ask?"

Latam nodded, a lot more satisfied with that answer. He also believed that Krune and Iem really had a Nascent God Realm power behind them. Let alone when they were True Spirit and Heavenly Race members. After all, this kind of talent shouldn't appear in a place like this. It's just that his Kalame Sect didn't care.

"Good! That's more like it."

"You don't need to worry about us trying to steal your kills. I know very well that you definitely have restrictions put on those memories. Otherwise, your elders would be real idiots, especially when their disciples are a True Spirit and a Heavenly Race member."

Krune and Iem weren't surprised that Latam knew about their real races. After all, he already found out about the Purple Tribulation Lightning and Devil Flames.

"Anyway, the reason I need you two is the same as Franlia's. My Sect Master has a use for those law destroying abilities of yours. As for whatever was located inside that Dimensional Realm, my Kalame Sect will not inquire."

Iem pondered a bit and nodded.

"What is it that you need us to do?"

Latam shook his head.

"It's not something to be discussed here. Besides, it is too early anyway. I'll come to fetch you two in two years. Be sure to be ready by them."

After saying that, Latam got up and decided to leave.

Krune couldn't help but ask, though.

"Aren't you afraid that we will escape back to our home? Or perhaps, that we will call our elders over?"

Latam laughed out loud.

"Hahaha! You can try if you want. My Kalame Sect isn't so useless that we would lose sight of two kids like you. Besides, I more than welcome your elders. They are bound to be a lot more proficient with your skills than yourselves. There is nothing that we can't do to reach an agreement. Our Sect Master is very much willing to negotiate with them in exchange for their help."

Krune sighed.

"No wonder Senior Latam doesn't seem that worried. You had no intention of creating enemies to start with."

Latam nodded.

"This issue is too important for our Sect. We will try to avoid any unnecessary conflict as much as possible. Anyway, just make sure you don't try to leave the Solar System during the next two years. As for anything else, I don't care."

Right after, Latam disappeared from the room.

Krune and Iem then looked at Franlia.

"Well, things developed in a way that none of us predicted."

Franlia sighed as she nodded her head.

"We were ready to drag the issue of the Demon Beast Dimensional Realm as much as possible. I was expecting many questions about the Dimensional Realm, its contents, origins, what we got, etc. I even had an excuse to use to tell how we got inside. But it was out of my calculation that they would need your law destroying abilities instead. The Kalame Sect Master seems to have no interest whatsoever in the Dimensional Realm itself. That shows just how important your abilities are to him and his Sect."

Krune and Iem nodded. In the end, they would need to wait to see what would happen in the future. Escaping was not an option since they didn't really have a background that they could rely on. The Sky Shifting Sect was still far from it.

"Leaving that aside, how the hell did you jump from the 6th Stage of the Semi-Divinity Realm all the way to the 3rd Stage of the Divinity Realm?"

Krune laughed in response but didn't answer, which made Franlia feel quite helpless.

"Well... I'm already kinda used to your oddness anyway. By the way, why didn't you answer my call?"

Krune and Iem looked away after hearing that question.

"Ahem... we broke the communicators by mistake during my breakthrough into the Divinity Realm."

Franlia found it hard to believe. Those were not pieces of equipment that would fall apart that easily. Still, she ignored that fact and sent them back. They could simply buy new ones, and that's it.
