Krune also talked with Franlia and asked her to look after the guys in the restaurant after he left. As for Franlia, it was the same as doing nothing since she could simply give an order, and her subordinates would take care of it.

Quickly, the days passed, and the time for Krune to leave finally came. He went to the place where he and Iem first appeared in the Godly Path Realm. Of course, Iem and a few others came to see him out too.

​​

"Well then, I'll see you guys sometime later."

Iem simply nodded, knowing that it wouldn't be too long before Krune was back. As for the others, they felt a bit more sentimental, especially Nina. Krune, of course, was happy to see all of that.

"Alright, alright. That's more than enough for now."

Krune turned around and sent his Divine Sense into the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher. Krune had received all the instructions from it after it finished recharging, so he knew how to proceed.

Krune had to use the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher near the area he arrived. That would guarantee that the connected destination would also be near the place he and Iem came from. Simply put, Dalin.

As for operating it, there wasn't really a need for that. Once Krune gave the orders, the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher would automatically open the passage for him.

Krune did exactly that. As soon as the order was received, the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher disappeared from Krune's foundation and reappeared outside. Krune wasn't afraid of someone recognizing it. After all, Iem had already used his Devil Flame to seal it, just like Luvile could.

The pyramid-like equipment then began to spin at high speeds. At its tip, Spatial Laws of a level far above Krune and Iem's began to gather. Suddenly, the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher shot some kind of silver ray forward.

However, that ray didn't go far. Just a few meters in front of them, that ray of silver light pierced through the fabric of space-time, disappearing inside. Not long after, a burst of Spiritual and Godly Energies came out of it. Yes, Spiritual Energy, the energy present in the Mortal Realm!

From around the Silver Ray, a tunnel began to form as the energy at its border spun just like the pyramid. It quickly increased in size until it finally stabilized at around 6 meters in diameter. Only then did the silver ray coming from the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher disappear.

*Crack, crack, crack...*

*Shatter!*

Suddenly, the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher burst apart into thousands of tiny pieces. Those pieces then turned into dust, which was quickly swept away by the wind. Sure enough, Zule wasn't lying. The Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher could only be used once.

As soon as the Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher was destroyed, the portal it had created began to slowly close as well. Krune looked at everyone with a smile but didn't say anything. Instead, he turned around a second later and shot inside the Spatial Gate.

Right behind him, Nina had a conflicted expression. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth once more and dashed in the direction of the portal as well.

Everyone sighed, seeing that.

"That girl really doesn't know when to give up."

Nina ignored them and pressed forward.

Unfortunately for her, just as Nina was about to enter the Spatial Gate, her body was suddenly locked in place.

"Little girl, that's not a place you belong to. Sorry, but you will have to stay."

Turned out that the one who stopped was Iem. Lino had told Iem that Nina might try something like that, so he asked Iem to stop her if necessary. Sure enough, it was what happened.

"Let go!"

Iem smiled as he shook his head.

"Not gonna happen."

The portal quickly reduced in size until finally, it was gone. Only then did Iem release Nina from his Godly Energy Grasp.

"I hate you!"

Iem shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Actually, you don't. But yeah, I can see you are angry, at least. Anyway, the show is over. Let's go back, everyone."

This place was quite far away from Immai City, so Iem was also acting as a guardian of this travel group. Lino and the others comforted Nina as they all began to make their way back to the city. They knew Nina very well. This girl couldn't really hate someone that easily. Once her anger disappeared, she would eventually forgive Iem as well. Well, it's not like Iem cared if she does it or not.

Dalin Universe, close to planet Caskin Planet...

That was the planet where Krune and Iem had their battle, the same one where the portal to the Godly Path Realm opened. Right in outer space, a Spatial Gate began to open. Surprisingly, that Spatial Gate seemed quite ordinary. Other than the fact that the surrounding Spiritual Energy entered it, there was nothing different.

Soon after, a rainbow-haired man stepped out. He looked to be in quite a bad shape, though. Thanks to Zule, Krune didn't have to pay any price to come down to the Mortal Realm. However, it didn't mean that travel would be pleasant. The Spatial Laws in the tunnel were terrifying! If not because Zule's Realm Barrier Dimensional Slasher kept more than 99% of it out of the path, Krune would definitely have died inside. Nonetheless, Krune was hit by them quite a few times.

Of course, those were just external issues. Krune's Wisp Core and Foundation were perfectly fine. He quickly took out one of Iem's Healing Pills and swallowed it. Not too long after, Krune's Human Form was healed once more.

"Sigh... what a scary place that Spatial Gate is."

Luvile agreed.

"I know, right? I've seen even worse. After all, a Spatial Gate from the God Realm and the Mortal Realm needs a much longer connection."

Krune could only imagine that.

"Anyway, look ahead. It's Caskin Planet!"

As soon as Krune said that, his Divine Sense spread out.

*Shwaaa!*

In just a second, his Divine Sense spread through several galaxies. It was the first time Krune was able to see so many things at once. If he tried to pay attention to each detail, he would need a lifetime to finish checking it all. Sure enough, without Godly Energy to block one's Divine Sense, the Mortal Realm was a Holy Land for High-Level cultivators and Demon Beasts.

Krune's Soul Power far surpassed those at his level. In fact, at this moment in Dalin Universe, Krune probably had the most powerful soul... with one exception, Heavin!

Heavin was the creator of the Soul Cultivation Technique, after all. It was a lot more compatible with him than Krune or anyone else. Both he and Krune were at the same Soul Control Realm 5th Stage. However, it was much better in his case than Krune.

As Krune's Divine Sense spread, he noticed something wrong...

Wars!

Wars everywhere!

At that very moment, there was one happening right outside Caskin Planet in outer space. Several thousands of Void Breaking Realm and above cultivators and demon beasts were locked in a battle. There were even a few Divinity Realm members on each side. However, neither of them were moving and only looked at the development of that battle.

Still, this one could only be said to be a small scale fight. In Krune's Divine Sense, he saw a few battles with tens of thousands of enemies on each side. Krune had only left for a bit more than a decade. How did things turn out like this? Also, why didn't Feifei tell him anything?

Krune was just about to open a Spatial Gate leading to the Wisp World when suddenly, one of the Divinity Realm cultivators and Demon Beasts in that battle in Caskin approached him.

"Stop right there!"

Krune turned back after hearing that.

"I don't have time. What do you want?"

The guy narrowed his eyes.

"What do you mean what I want? You appeared on our side of the battlefield. Who are you, what side are you fighting for?"

Krune then showed a puzzled expression.

Side? I just arrived in Dalin. I don't even know what is happening here. How could I have a side?

Still, Krune wasn't in the mood to wait, so he decided to leave.

"It doesn't matter since I'm leaving. You guys can continue whatever you are doing."

Krune then turned around once more and tried to open a Spatial Gate. Unfortunately, the guy didn't let things be over like that. As soon as Krune ignored him, he attacked. Whatever reason Krune had to appear here would need to be answered after he captured him.

Krune was at the 4th Stage of the Divinity Realm, while that guy was at the 7th. He believed that he had the advantage against Krune.

"Why don't you stay here for some more time? I still have a lot of questions for you."

Suddenly, an attack filled with Space Laws came crashing in Krune's direction. The Space in the Mortal Realm was who knows how many times more fragile than the Godly Path Realm one. Because of that, Krune's enemy attack broke the balance of space around the entire region. Naturally, opening a safe Spatial Gate now would be impossible.

Unfortunately, that only served to anger Krune.

Purple Lightning spread out of Krune's body and shot against the guy's attack.

*Boom!*

But it didn't stop there. The Purple Lightning didn't lose any power as it shot in the enemy's direction.

This guy was really unlucky. Krune had combat power capable of surpassing an entire realm. And that was while he was in the Godly Path Realm, where the enemies were naturally stronger due to Godly Energy. Someone who cultivated with Spiritual Energy would be even more helpless.
