Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 533 Divinity Essence

Caskin Planet has thousands of Long-Distance Teleport Formation, and they flashed with silver light nonstop. Still, they were all being managed by just as many cultivators and demon beasts. All of them didn't have a cultivator or demon beasts lower than the Divine View Realm. They were there to ensure that those who arrived really had the necessary status to be here during the Heavenly Competition.

As mentioned before, a single planet can't possibly hold everyone who wants to watch the Heavenly Competition, so the biggest majority will have to watch it from other places.

Suddenly, one of those thousands of teleport formations activated. When the silver light disappeared, it was possible to see an old and a young man standing there. With that, the cultivator taking care of this specific one came forward to check their identities.

"Hello there. I will need your names and reason for the visit."

Erzato then took a token from his Spatial Ring and passed it to the guy. Once the cultivator put his Divine Sense inside, he immediately received a stream of information. He gave it back to Erzato right after before saying.

"Luvile Universe participant and his protector. I will need the participant's name since we don't have it registered yet."

Krune knew that hiding his identity from now on would be meaningless, so he just went for his real name.

"Krune."

The cultivator nodded before opening his communicator. After a few minutes going through the registration process, he took another token out and passed it to Krune.

"Please keep it safe, this is your registration token, which allows you to participate in the Heavenly Competition. If you lose, it will be quite annoying to make another one."

Krune nodded and put it into his Spatial Ring as well. With everything handled, Krune and Erzato were allowed to leave the Teleport Formations' area.

Erzato looked around.

"There is still another week before the Heavenly Competition starts. So let's find a place to stay for the time being."

Krune nodded as the two moved to the city where the majority of the competitors were staying. Of course, considering the strength of Divine Path Realm Heavenly Divine Soul Owners, the competition can't happen inside the city. Otherwise, the city would suffer a lot of damage. Besides, it's not like it will be only one vs. one fights.

With nothing better to do, Krune went direct to the restaurants available. Erzato, of course, was surprised that Krune even liked to eat. After all, he knows that Krune is a wisp. But he didn't have anything against it either, so he accompanied him.

As Erzato looked the city with his Divine Sense, he could few thousands of auras not the least bit weaker than his own. Obviously, they were all peak Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts. This was the first time Erzato saw so many of them together. Quite a lot of them had a young man or woman beside them. Some were demon beasts in human form, while others were cultivators.

Krune couldn't feel the presence of those Divinity Realm cultivators or demon beasts since the cultivation difference was too big. Or at least, not with his Divine Sense. But his Divine Sense was more than enough to see all the competitors walking around.

Suddenly, they were stopped by a young man's Divine Sense message. In fact, the man wasn't trying to communicate with Krune and Erzato specifically, but everyone who passed through that street.

"The Heavenly Auction will be happening in two days times, acquire your token now before it is too late."

It was then that Krune noticed his clothes. Because of his Divine Sense, Krune could tell that several more cultivators and demon beasts in human form were doing the same thing around the city.

Krune's interest was picked.

"Senior Erzato, what about we take a look?"

Erzato nodded. They didn't have anything better to do anyway.

Surprisingly though, the token was really expensive. But that was to be expected. Otherwise, there wouldn't be space for everyone. If one couldn't even afford the token to enter the auction, then let alone buy anything.

A day later, Krune's Divine Sense detected someone he knew. The other side also noticed him, so they ended encountering in the City Center.

"Hahaha! So you came, uh? Did you come to watch this grandfather's performance?"

This was none other than Laka and his protector.

Krune laughed too as he shook his head.

"I'm also participating in the Heavenly Competition, so I won't have time to watch your performance at all."

Laka was taken aback.

"You taking part too? Oh! You are already in the 7th Stage of the Divine Path Realm! Man, your cultivation speed is too fast! Anyway, considering your combat power, it's not weird that you are participating. Will you tell me which Universe you came from this time?"

Krune smiled as he nodded.

"I don't need to hide it anymore. I came from the Luvile Universe."

Laka pondered a bit but couldn't remember any Universe with such a name.

"How come I've never heard about?"

Krune shrugged his shoulder.

"Well, there is no helping it. I came from a very remote Universe, after all. So far, I haven't seen anyone ever talking about my Universe. The fact that you don't know is to be expected."

Kruen and Laka talked for a while before they separated once more.

Once Laka was far enough, his protector asked him.

"Is he someone to take notice?"

Laka nodded.

"I've seen his power first hand. I wouldn't find it weird if he got another one of the five final slots, that's how strong he is."

Laka also wanted to say that Krune was the one who forged his Purple Flame Dragon Pearl, but he couldn't since he is bound by the Dragon Pact. Only if Krune allowed it would he be able to do so.

Laka's protector was surprised by that judgment. After all, he could see that Krune is only at the 7th Stage of the Divine Path Realm. There are loads of Peak Divine Path Realm Heavenly Divine Soul owners, so one could imagine just how much of a freak Krune is.

"Let's hope you don't have to engage him any time soon."

Laka smiled but didn't say anything. He loves challenges, so he wouldn't mind fighting Krune if there was a need for it.

Erzato also asked Krune the same question.

"Well, he is really strong. He even entered the 8th Stage of the Divine Path Realm after the end of the Holy land. If nothing goes wrong, I don't think there will be many out there who can threaten him."

Erzato nodded. He knows that Krune had been to the Holy Land, so it wasn't surprising that he met other Heavenly Divine Soul Owners.

Another day passed, and the auction day finally arrived. The auction building was inside a pocket dimensional realm, so it could fit tens of thousands of cultivators and demon beasts.

Krune and Erzato stayed together with the crowd. There were special booths for those who paid more, but Krune didn't care about those things. He only came to watch, after all. In any case, even if something he wants appears, it will be hard to acquire, considering the wealth of the Divine Realm cultivators and demon beasts around.

The auction started after another two hours. Finally, a female demon beast in human form went up in the stage. Krune couldn't tell her cultivation with his Divine Sense, but he was sure that she wasn't below the Semi-Divinity Realm.

"Welcome, everyone! The once is a Heavenly Competition time auction is now starting. I hope your pockets are full so that you don't regret losing the items you are about to see. Without further ado, let's begin!"

Right in the middle of the stage, there was a teleport formation. It flashed with silver light for a second before revealing a flask with a gray liquid inside. Krune looked at that but couldn't identify what it was.

"I believe the majority know what it is, but in case you don't, let me explain. This is the Planet Core Essence, refined from over a hundred planets. As you know, it is extremely difficult to make even a drop, let alone an entire bottle. I wonder just how many years the alchemist who refined it took? Perhaps over ten thousand? Who knows? It's definitely worth of being party of our auction, especially since so much had been refined, don't you think?"

"It can be used for many things, but the most common use is for Spiritual Equipment Forging. Something made with it is bound to be much better. Divinity Realm Blacksmiths would love to have just a few drops to work with. Now, you all have the chance of get some."

"The initial price is 100 bottles of Divinity Essence."

Kruno was interested in it, but he had no idea what Divinity Essence was. Without another choice, he could only ask Erzato.
