Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 632 The deal

Krune was taken aback. That was Heavin's Soul Cultivation Technique! Krune already understood that even in the Godly Path Realm, no one knew about Mental Energy. That shows just how rare such a cultivation technique is.

"This..."

The God Crystal was precious. With so much of it, he might be able to sell some later to buy the rest of the materials to fix Zule's Spatial Treasure Form. If he does that, it will be much simpler to get Zule to open a passage back to the Mortal Realm for him. One must remember how much Krune wants to go back to his family.

However, the Mental Energy secret was no joke. At least, Krune considers it almost as precious as the Myriad Energies Technique.

Iem noticed Krune hesitation. However, it wasn't like he refused straight away.

"You are afraid that I will spread this technique around, right? I can tell how incredible it is since it can scan further than Divine Senses of higher realm cultivators. I've never seen anything like this before. Naturally, you don't want to share it with others. Not to mention that you are planning to go back to the Mortal Realm, so you won't know what I could do with it. Am I right?"

Krune nodded.

"You are correct. But there is one more reason behind it. I wasn't the one who created it, so I don't know if I should really share it without its creator's consent."

Iem nodded. He believes that some powerful cultivator or demon of the Mortal Realm created it. That being said, it was normal that Krune couldn't share it easily. Obviously, his first suspect was Wally, the wisp that the entire Mortal Realm feared. That also meant that Krune's technique was something from the God Realm, which could explain its heaven-defying ability. Of course, he was totally wrong since it was Heavin who created it.

"I understand. However, we have no way to contact the Mortal Realm at the moment. So what about this? I'll help you acquire the God Crystal and, at the same time, give you something that will be of great help to you. Also, I will promise you that I will never spread this technique to anyone. Even if I build a family in the future, I will still not pass it to my descendants either. How about that?"

Krune's attention was immediately picked. From the looks of it, Iem was very confident about his own offer.

"Hum... What is it that you can offer me? As you know, my cultivation speed and Laws perception aren't any worse than yours. Could it be those cultivation resources that we couldn't buy without backgrounds? I'm sorry, but I'll be able to get them sooner or later."

Iem laughed while showing a confident expression. He then reached his own Spatial Ring and brought three objects outside. As soon as Krune and Zule saw them, their Heavenly Fragments immediately reacted!

"Heavenly Fragments!"

Iem laughed out loud and nodded his head.

"Yes. These are Heavenly Fragments that had their Universes destroyed. Obviously, they are ownerless ones."

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"Why do you have three of them?"

However, Iem didn't answer Krune's question. Instead, he noticed something different.

"Oh, it seems like you saw Ownerless Heavenly Fragments before."

Krune was taken aback but nodded in the end.

"Do you remember the auction that happened before the Heavenly Competition back on the Mortal Realm? They had an Ownerless Heavenly Fragment for sale at that time. It just so happens that I was the one to acquire it. It was an Ownerless Blackhole Heavenly Fragment."

Iem nodded.

"So that's why you seem familiar with it. That's good. I don't need to waste my time explaining what Ownerless Heavenly Fragments are. As for why I have them, the reason is pretty simple. My Sect back on Mortal Realm had acquired them for me. However, you do know that Heavenly Fragments of the same type can't be absorbed, right? Also, before you try to absorb them, there is no way to know which type of Heavenly Fragment it is. It just so happens that these Heavenly Fragments were the types that I had already absorbed. The good thing was that I can tell which type they are since I tried it before."

Krune's attention was totally focused on Iem's words, waiting for him to continue.

"The left one is a Yin Heavenly Fragment, and the middle one is a Time Heavenly Fragment. As for the right one, it is a Life Heavenly Fragment."

Krune's eyes lit up! He didn't have any of them. At the moment, Krune has the Blackhole, Yang, and obviously, the Elemental one. Krune wasn't the only one interested in them, though.

"Hey, can I have one?"

Obviously, it was Zule. He is a sentient Heavenly Fragment, so he was obviously interested in an Ownerless Heavenly Fragment as well. If he fused his one with another, his power was definitely going to increase a lot.

However, Krune cut him short straight away.

"Keep dreaming! Did you forget what kind of treasure your Heavenly Fragment is residing in? It's a Spatial Type one! If you fuse of another Heavenly Fragment that has nothing to do with it, chances are that the treasure will break apart. Also, even if you decide to give up the treasure, there is a chance that your sentience will be damaged or even destroyed if you do it. I don't have the power to control a treasure at your level. If your sentience is destroyed, who will use it to open a passage for me to go back to the Mortal Realm?"

Zule staggered a bit when he heard that his treasure would probably break. However, it was the risk of having his sentience wiped out that made Zule give up the idea straight away.

"Cough, cough... I was just joking. I have no need for more heavenly Fragments. I'm pretty happy the way I am at the moment, yes, definitely."

Krune then returned his attention to Iem.

"Are you sure you want to make such a trade? You know very well how incredible Heavenly Fragments are in the Godly Path and God Realms, no? Zule's Space Heavenly Fragment is a very good example of it."

Iem laughed before nodding.

"Don't worry, I'm very willing to do so."

He took all his three ones out because he wanted to make an offer that Krune definitely couldn't refuse. Iem still believes that this was a God Realm's technique, so it definitely didn't lose to his Heavenly Fragments in value. Well, Heavin's technique is definitely worth just as much, or probably even more, though.

Luvile, who had been observing so far, decided to help as well.

"I think it's worth it. Don't forget that our main objective is to go back to the Mortal Realm. Both your family and my body are still there, so going back is of paramount importance. That God Crystal will be of immense help towards this objective. Not to mention that you will be getting three Heavenly Fragments on top of that."

"Besides, I refuse to believe that Heavin would mind it. You helped him so much until the day you two separated. There is nothing wrong with you using his technique to help yourself now. Heavin would definitely tell you to accept the offer too."

Krune took a deep breath and nodded.

"Alright, I accept the deal!"

Iem's eyes lit up.

"Great!"

Immediately, he threw the three Heavenly Fragments at Krune. The two of them had been interacting together for over three years, so Iem understands Krune's personality very well. He would definitely not go back on his words.

Sure enough, Krune put the Heavenly Fragments inside his Spatial Ring and transmitted the Soul Cultivation Technique to Iem right after. Since he was using Divine Sense, he only took a few moments to pass the entire content.

"Hum...? This..."

Iem was shocked by what he received.

"This is a Cultivation Technique for the Soul!!! It even has realms like our normal cultivation system. How is that possible? No wait, is it me, or the number of realms doesn't match? Could it be that you don't have the full cultivation technique?"

Krune shook his head.

"My friend created this technique, so he was only able to think up to the Soul Control Realm. It's not that I don't have the rest of the technique, but that the creator still hasn't figured out the next realms yet."

Iem couldn't help but ask.

"Wasn't it Wally who gave you this?"

Krune was taken aback.

"Wally? Where did you get this idea? The guy who created it is even younger than me. In fact, wally doesn't have this technique to start with. Still, this is the technique that allows me to make a further scan than Divine Sense. That's because this technique allows you to use Mental Energy. Well, in fact, Divine Sense can go much further. However, Divine Sense is deeply affected by Godly Energy, while Mental Energy isn't as much."

Iem felt like he was tricked. He thought he was getting a technique from the God Realm, but it turned out that it was created in the Mortal Realm instead. However, the one who got the wrong idea was himself, so he couldn't call off the trade.

"Sigh... Anyway, what is this Mental Energy you talked about."

Krune smiled and then extended his hand. Suddenly a semi-transparent blade appeared on it. Iem's interest was immediately picked. He simply couldn't recognize the type of energy inside it.

"Protect yourself."

*Vup!*

Krune then threw the blade at him. Iem knew that Krune was only showing it the thing, so he didn't try to dodge. He simply created a Godly Energy barrier and waited to block it. Too bad, though. Godly Energy is indeed better against Mental Energy than Spiritual Energy. However, it was still far from being able to block it completely. Sure enough, the blade ignored the Godly Energy and immediately rushed at Iem's body.

Iem was frightened by that. However, before the blade hit his body, he used his crystallization to block the attack. However, Mental Energy was even more efficient against physical abilities! The blade entered his body and went straight to his dantian. Iem finally panicked and summoned all his Godly Energy to block his Dantian's outer shell.

Finally, there was Godly Energy enough to stop the blade in its tracks. After that, the blade used the rest of its energy and disappeared.

Iem couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief after that.

He then looked back at Krune with an excited expression. Krune, on the other hand, was laughing at Iem's sweating face. Iem didn't mind, though.

"This was indeed a great deal!"

Krune nodded.

"This is not the extent of Mental Energy abilities. But I'll keep it a secret until you manage to summon Mental Energy yourself least I spoil the fun."
