Is that a Wisp?

In front of the group, there was a large open space. There, they could see hundreds of Silver Roots extending from the walls. Each root had what seemed to be a Silver Flame at their ends. Some flames were bigger, while others were smaller. Nevertheless, they were all similar to each other.

Zule looked at the flames and immediately identified what they were.

'Those are the Soul Fragments of Kun-Peng. Can you see this open space? It was not naturally formed. This place was where Kun-Peng's Soul was located before.'

Krune and the others nodded in response.

'So, are you going to try and absorb them? No, to be more specific, will those Soul Fragments let you absorb them?'

Zule shook his head.

'Of course not. Even though these Soul Fragments are hibernating, they will immediately resist any attempt to do so. However, we have an advantage, Luvile and Harold's power. The other 'Zule's' Soul Power had recovered more than these guys, but we still succeeded. These Soul Fragments here aren't even half as strong. Besides, the more I absorb, the stronger I will become myself. It's just that...'

Krune, Iem, and the others noticed that pause.

'Just what?'

Zule then continued.

'It's just that these aren't all of them. From the looks of it, a few Soul Fragments are missing.'

Krune then asked.

'Are you saying they escaped as well?'

Zule shook his head in response.

'I'm not entirely sure. I believe that most of the missing Soul Fragments had just run out of energy, disappearing completely. However, do you remember that Heaven Break building that had the teleportation formation? I think there is a chance that teleportation formation was built by a Soul Fragment that escaped this place in the past.'

Iem then pondered over something else.

'If that's the case, why didn't it absorb these Soul Fragments?'

Zule shrugged his shoulders. It was evident that he did not know the answer.

'Who knows? Chances are that it tried to fuse with someone else's Soul, making it impossible to absorb the others. Or perhaps it didn't even remember there were other Soul Fragments here. Anyway, there is no way to find the truth. However, I do have a vague feeling that the name Heaven Break is present in Kun-Peng's memories.'

Dudo and Mala noticed Krune and Iem's silence and asked.

"Do you know what those things are?"

Krune then answered.

"I have a faint idea. Anyway, I will need Elder Dudo and Mala to watch out for me while I try to take them."

Dudo and Mala nodded. It was their mission to protect Iem and Krune anyway.

Krune and Iem then approached one of the smaller Silver Flames. Right after, Purple Lightning and Dark Flames appeared, enveloping the Silver Flame. Of course, that was just a cover so that Zule could come out to take the Soul Fragment without Dudo and Mala being able to see it.

Without wasting any time, Zule immediately launched his own Soul against the Silver Flame. The moment both Souls touched each other, the opponent's Soul awakened.

"What?! You! What are you doing!"

Zule ignored the Soul's words.

"Don't mind me. I'm just trying to prevent Kun-Peng from destroying the Four Realms, that's all. You can simply stay still and let me absorb you. Your thirst for revenge will be gone soon."

Of course, the Soul Fragment's sentience wouldn't simply accept it.

"You are the same as me! How can you say that you want to stop our revenge?! No, you are not me anymore. If you were, you would never say something like that! I won't let you take me that easily."

Zule couldn't help but sigh in response.

"You say that, but you don't even know why you want to get revenge, right? What will you gain by destroying the Four Realms? All you can remember is that it has some connection to our downfall. What's the point in that?"

The Soul Fragment didn't accept Zule's words.

"Shut up! What do you know? Can't you feel the hatred? So what if we can't remember what we want revenge against? That is because we are broken! Once we fuse together once more, we will naturally remember everything! So what if the Four Realms are destroyed? As long as we can make the betrayer pay, everything will be worth it!"

The Soul Fragment kept resisting, but with Krune and Iem's help, Zule was quickly absorbing it. It wouldn't take long before it was over.

"Worth it? I can also remember that our condition ended like this because someone we believed betrayed us, even though I can't remember who or how. Still, do you know how many lives will perish if you destroy all Four Realms? Then again, I agree with you on something. We need to get our revenge. However, it can't be at the cost of everyone else."

"No! Everyone has to die! Only by annihilating the Four Realms and all lives in it will that existence that betrayed us feel the pain we felt! I also can't remember who that existence was or why it betrayed us. However, there is a good chance that if we start destroying everything, it will appear to stop us. That will be the perfect moment to counterattack!"

Zule shook his head once more.

"You're wrong. With the injury that our body suffered, I doubt we would have a chance. It would only lead us to our demise even faster! Trust me, I will remember everything, and I will get revenge for us, but not like this."

"N-no... I... can't... accept..."

The Soul Fragment tried to self explode as well, just like the last 'Zule.' However, Krune and Iem were well prepared this time. To self-explode, the Soul Fragment would need to gather the Godly Energy in the surroundings. Unfortunately, the duo completely sealed the space around it. No Godly Energy would come at all. Eventually, that Soul Fragment understood that it wouldn't last.

"Will you... really..."

Before it could finish its words, the Soul Fragment crumbled, being quickly absorbed by Zule once again. Still, Zule knew what it wanted to ask.

"Don't worry, I will remember everything, and I will get revenge for us."

Zule's Soul Power increased again after absorbing that Soul Fragment, but he didn't look the least bit happy.

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"Are you sure you are fine?"

"Sigh... While I was absorbing him, I once again felt the hatred he talked about. I feel like my memories were a bit more stimulated now... Anyway, let's continue."

Zule then returned inside Krune's Divine Soul for a moment while Krune and Iem went to the next Soul Fragment. After covering it with Purple Lightning and Dark Flames again, Zule stepped out once more as a similar scene played in front of them. Just like that, they began to help Zule absorb one Soul Fragment after another.

Time passed, and several days went by. During this time, Jamot's group returned to their Celestial Organizations to use the Formation Cores to keep the Celestial Protection Formation running. After making sure that the Formation could run for a few more days without the cores, they once again exited the Foundation Space with them and continued their negotiation. Finally, it seemed like the three sects' side and the celestial organizations were coming to an agreement.

"So, what you all want are places where you can build your Celestial Organizations once more. It's not my place to ask this, but... why are you not joining forces to create a single stronger force? Four Peak God Core Realm cultivators and Demon beasts would immediately become one of the strongest forces in our Zamaria Planet."

Jamot and the others immediately shook their heads.

"We all have our own differences and focus on our different paths. Making the four Celestial Organizations join forces would be the same as starting an internal war once again. We can't let that happen since we will only have Transformation Realm and below members available after the collapse is over."

Franlia, Binmi, and Aragan nodded. For them, it was obviously good news that these Four God Core Realms won't work together.

"Very well. According to our agreement, you will provide 60% of the resources available to our three sects. The other 40% will be shared between your four Celestial Organizations. In exchange, we will help you consolidate your forces in Zamaria Planet. In this agreement, we will also put restrictions on each other's souls, stating that neither side will touch each other during the next 10 thousand years. On top of that, these resources might bring calamity to either one of us, so we will form a temporary alliance during the duration of this agreement. Of course, this is also part of the restrictions."

Binmia, Jamot, Aragan, Franlia, and all the other God Core Realm experts agreed with the arrangement. They all knew very well that the resources inside the Foundation Space were a lot more valuable than the Top Quality Godly Veins. Obviously, continuing their war before securing everything would be incredibly idiotic.

"So, should we follow with the next part now?"

There was one thing remaining for everything to work. These God Core Realm leaders of the Celestial Organizations had to leave this Dimensional Realm to fight the Heavenly Tribulation. That's also why they had the Formations Cores with them. They were made with parts of the Silver Core itself, so they harnessed a tremendous amount of energy. Not to mention, they could create Godly Energy on their own.

As mentioned in the past, they had never received any Heavenly Tribulation since the Silver Core Foundation Space was hidden from the Heavens. However, the moment they would appear outside, the Heavens would surely strike them down with the power of all tribulations they should have received so far together. Not to mention that as punishment for hiding for so long, the power of those tribulations will increase as well.

"Very well, let us guide you four to the exit."

Jamot and the other three nodded as everyone began to make their way out. However, no one noticed, but Binmia was now holding a Seal in her hands. The previous 'Zule's' Seal!

'Should I try it?'
