Is that a Wisp?

Krune's group didn't find anything strange with that. After all, they knew about the resources Zule left behind. Then again, it was Krune and Iem who delivered it, to begin with.

Feifei then looked at Krune before asking.

"Do you think it'll work out?"

Krune shrugged his shoulders as he replied.

"Who knows? I just find Reril's sudden appearance a bit off, as well as his actions. It's known that Reril is stronger than those at his level. He could have forced Senior Rag into submission easily. That way, this planet would basically be under his own rule. However, he didn't do that. Not only that, he was already a Nascent God Realm True Spirit, but only appeared just now. I wonder what's going on in his head."

Iem didn't seem to care, saying.

"Don't think too deeply into it. Whatever it may be, it won't affect our plans. Things regarding Nascent Gods and shifting of powers usually take a very long time to happen. By the time something changes in this planet for real, we'll probably be long gone."

Krune and Feifei nodded, with Krune muttering.

"Well, that's true."

Iem then looked in the distance as a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh! It seems like we have company again. Truly, I have to take my hat off for Sect Master Franlia. Her proposal to keep combat in this place is quite splendid. That way, we can keep our training in real battle situations. Truly convenient."

Feifei also added.

"That's not all. By keeping this combat zone, you will always have people and beasts of the three sects roaming around. In a certain way, you can keep the area monitored 24/7. It would be somewhat challenging for others to make a move in this place without anyone noticing anything different."

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"Can you see something?"

"Of course! However, the options are way too numerous. There are thousands of possibilities at the moment, so it won't matter much whether I talk about it or not. It'll take a very long time until I can see anything more conclusive, considering all the possibilities involved."

Krune and Iem nodded.

"Alright, let's go!"

Krune's group, together with a few Sky Shifting Sect members with various cultivation levels, immediately began a battle against the Three Peaks Sect's forces.

In the end, Iem was right. For the next several years, all the powers of the planet were more or less silent. There were a few disagreements and battles here and there between the planet's main forces, but nothing out of the norm. If there was anything truly noticeable, it was the fact that the Sky Shifting and the Energy Sects began to increase in size very fast. However, the others couldn't do anything against it since both sects had a Nascent God in their ranks.

Krune's group ignored all of that, though. They only paid attention to their own cultivation and skills. For example, Krune finally surpassed the Divinity Stars level in both Blacksmith and Cooking. Although he didn't have Purple Tribulation Lightning to create Purple Flame equipment, it didn't mean he couldn't forge anything. Besides, Luvile was there as well. That being said, he only had to ask for Luvile's help, and he would be able to make them.

Feifei began to attend the Formations Guild more often than not. However, she didn't go above the Divinity Stars level in her proficiency. It was not that she couldn't, but because she had to change her skills. Spiritual Energy and Godly Energy Formations worked very differently. Naturally, she had to study all of those things from the very basics, just like Iem did.

Nevertheless, after a long time, she could be said to have finalized her transition. The good thing was that Formations of the Godly Path Realm would also be useful in the God Realm. After all, both realms were flooded with Godly Energy.

During this time, there were a few things that Franlia asked Krune and the others to help with. That's basically because of his connection with Zule, of course. In her eyes, Iem and Krune were very important because of that. Little did she know that Zule wouldn't return anymore. Of course, Iem and Krune didn't mention that.

As for the restaurant, well... Nina really put a hell of a fight against Feifei. Unfortunately for her, Krune was oblivious to most of it. Even when he did notice her intentions, his eyes were still on Feifei. Jilin, without any other choice, began to comfort her every now and then, as well as trying to help when possible. With that, the two became somewhat closer than usual, much to Feifei's delight. Things were going as she could exactly see.

Because Krune still appeared in the restaurant every now and then, the employees decided to make a calendar with the days he would be available there. During those days, the restaurants would have all of their reservations filled for the entire day. It wasn't anything unexpected, though. Any Spiritual Chef at Krune's level received that kind of treatment.

Oclo was a great example of that. He was the first Spiritual Chef Krune had ever met and the one who taught him about it. Oclo's restaurant wasn't any worse than Krune's. It just wasn't any bigger because Oclo was the only Spiritual Chef of his level there. Krune, obviously, often paid visits to Oclo since he owed the man a lot.

Another thing that happened during the years was the group's improvement in Laws. Iem, Krune, and Feifei had already finished comprehending and merging all Elemental Laws, including Light and Darkness. The only thing that remained were their own advanced laws like Time, Space, and Destiny. As expected, those were and would always be the hardest laws to comprehend between the main trending ones, even in the Godly Path Realm.

Of course, there were other Laws that might or might not be more difficult than those. For example, there was Ruik's Dream Laws or Uer's Death Laws. But in that case, it depended a lot on the individual. Besides, Feifei, Krune, and Iem didn't practice any off-stream laws... Well, Krune had his hidden Calamity Laws, but let's not rub salt on his already open wounds...

In that fashion, twenty years went by in a flash. Sure enough, with the Top Quality Godly Energy Veins and Godly Energy Stones, the cultivation levels of Krune's group soared. The first one to reach the Peak of the Transformation Realm was obviously Iem, who was already in the Second Stage by the time Krune and Feifei had arrived in the Godly Path Realm.

"Hahaha! Without that tenth meridian of yours, I'm definitely faster. Don't underestimate the power of a Heavenly Race Member!"

Krune and Feifei shrugged their shoulders after hearing that. They didn't think they would be faster than Iem anyway. The Heavenly Race wasn't called that for nothing. Not to mention that a Heavenly Core was simply way too suited for his race. Still, they weren't much behind. Without his Tenth Meridians to help with cultivation, Krune and Feifei's cultivation pace became nearly identical. Krune only had a small advantage since the Myriad Energies Technique was made with Wisps in mind, after all.

Three years later, Krune had also reached the Peak of the Transformation Realm. He was quickly followed by Feifei, who got there just two years after him. In total, Krune's group spent 25 years to finish changing their bodies into Godly variants. Of course, part of that speed was thanks to having a place where they could battle against other cultivators. By the time Krune's group had reached the 8th Stage of the Transformation Realm, they could already fight ordinary late-stage Mortal Rejection Realm cultivators with ease. They even became quite famous in the battleground of the three sects.

With Feifei's last breakthrough, Krune took the chance to send Luvile, Soren, and Heavin a message. Luvile had been close to them to start with. It's just that he didn't need to battle anyone to cultivate. Of course, his cultivation soared the fastest by far since he was just recovering his cultivation. By the time Krune, Feifei and Iem had reached the Peak of the Transformation Realm, Luvile went from Mortal Rejection all the way to God Foundation.

Indeed, Luvile had cultivated two entire realms by simply absorbing Godly Energy. Not to mention that he was already in the 6th Stage of the God Foundation Realm. Another thing was that Luvile had cultivated his soul all the way to the 1st Stage of the Soul Source Realm. That was some truly breakneck cultivation speed considering that he started later than anyone else.

In Krune's case, he had reached the 5th Stage of the same Soul Cultivation Realm. It's just that he had just arrived at that stage, so it would take a long time before he would be ready to enter the Godly Soul Source Realm. One must remember that the Soul Cultivation Technique only had five stages between each realm. Iem, as a Heavenly Race member, caught up to Feifei, who was in the 3rd stage.

Soren and Heavin arrived a few days later. However, Krune's group was shocked to see Heavin's improvement.

"What...! You're already in the 5th Stage of the Godly Soul Source Realm?"

That was an entire realm above Krune! One must not forget that each new realm of the Soul Cultivation System was much harder than each new realm in normal cultivation. In a certain way, Heavin's speed could be said to be similar to Luvile's in the Normal Cultivation System, even though he only went up a single realm.

"Hahaha! Who do you think I am? I'm a genius!"

Soren agreed with that.

"He isn't wrong. I doubt I'll ever find someone as suited for my Soul Cultivation System as him in my life."

Cinnia, who was in the 2nd Stage of the Soul Source Realm inside Luvile's Pendant, then said.

"Alright, alright. That's enough for now. So, are we going up or not? I want to rebuild my body, you know?"

Harold immediately agreed with her.

"Exactly! I can't stand Purple Idiot's smug expression anymore. I need a body as well."

Luvile laughed delightedly in response. The angrier Harold got, the happier he would feel.

"Very well. Let us prepare."
