Is That A Wisp?

Krune then used his Divine Sense so that he could talk with Ruik and the others in the distance.

"So, this is the situation at the moment. What should we do now?"

Dilo was the first to answer.

"We can simply follow the same plan as before. Let's go to the Mission Hall of this city and connect to their network. If there is any news about this Mohie Sect or Clan, it will definitely appear inside. Perhaps the other owners are also looking for it at the moment."

Krune nodded, and they decided to follow Dilo's plan. But before that, there was one thing that they had to take care of first. The fact that they have been followed all the time. Krune couldn't bring Dilo out since it would just make those who want to fight him and Ruik to call their own Soul Forging Realm companions.

While Krune was pondering about this issue, a young man approached him.

"Hello there. Can I have a minute of your time?"

Krune and Ruik looked at him and nodded.

"You were one of those keeping Divine Sense on us, right?"

The young man nodded.

"Exactly. My name is Joiu Rak, a Divine Soul Realm cultivator. I'm also one of those who want to challenge you as well if the opportunity ."

Krune and Ruik were already expecting this much.

"I see. So it was really because they want to fight against us. But there is one thing I don't understand. It is evident that you all can feel each other's presence, so why don't you use a black token to challenge those guys?"

Joiu smiled and then explained.

"That's because we don't want to be the ones who are issuing the challenge. As you know, as long as you hold for five minutes, it will be your victory. After that, the other part has to do whatever you want them to do. We are all geniuses here, so no one wants to risk it."

Krune nodded.

"I see, it is really disadvantageous to be the once issuing the challenge. So, why are you all focusing on my friend and me? Even if I didn't have the white token, I don't think anyone between you would challenge me anyway, right?"

Joiu confirmed Krune's assumptions.

"Exactly! What I'm here for is to offer you the chance to join our group. Of course, even though I say we are a group, the fact is that there is no such thing as a leader or that many activities that we do together. Our group usually has only one objective, to be able to challenge each other without the need to pay anything to the victor. You can simply see us as sparring partners that will issue challenges to each other now and then."

Krune finally understood.

"I see, so you are basically a representative of everyone else."

Joiu nodded.

"Yes. Whether you agree to join or not, we are going to leave after that. Of course, if someone decides to keep tailing you, that will have nothing to do with the others. The group will not stop a member from doing whatever they want, either."

Krune pondered a bit and then said.

"Very well, I accept."

Joiu immediately showed a happy expression.

"Great! Bring out your communicators. I will pass you the other members contact so that we can keep in touch. Oh, you will be able to find a few pieces of information about each one of us inside too. Like which type of opponent we wish to test our abilities against and other things like that."

Joiu then remembered one thing.

"Oh, right! No one holds back when we fight against each other, so there is a chance of dying. Please be careful if you decide to accept a challenge or challenge someone instead."

Krune and Ruik nodded, and they passed their contact numbers over. Soon, the two of them received several friend requests from the other members. They were even invited into a chat group that those geniuses keep together.

"Well, this is it. If you decide to accept a challenge, you won't need to care about black or white tokens. The city has arenas with protection formations ready for anyone who wishes to fight. Of course, different from outside, there will be no judge, nor will there be anyone who will save you in case you are about to die, so keep that in mind."

Krune and Ruik noticed that the majority of the Divine Senses disappeared right after they received the friend requests. 

"Alright. There is another issue, if I'm not wrong, this group thing only works inside the cities, right? If I leave the city, everything goes back to the Law of the Jungle, correct?"

Joiu nodded.

"It's good that you understand this part."

Joiu then turned around and started to walk away.

"Anyway, that's all I had to do, so take a look and see if you want to accept someone's challenge or if you want to challenge someone yourself."

Joiu soon disappeared in the distance.

Still, even though most of the Divine Senses disappeared, there were the common ones that one would normally notice while walking in this city.

"Can't say if the remaining ones are after us or if they are just passing by. Well, I can't complain since I'm keeping my Divine Sense spread all the time as well."

"Let's go to the Mission Hall first. I want to take a look at their network."

Ruik nodded, and they immediately departed. Since those Divine Senses from before disappeared, there wasn't much of a meaning to keep Dilo and the others far away anymore, so they joined Krune and Ruik right after. 

Once they arrived there, Krune noticed several Missions, Inheritances, Tombs, and Dimension Realms information being displayed in a big monitor. There was even a countdown timer on their sides.

"Those are the ones which had their information was spread. Usually, those places would be full of danger, so people and beats decide to divulge the information to gather as many triers as possible. Of course, you can't really trust those timers. If someone wishes, they have the right to simply charge directly inside without caring about anyone else. But habitually, everyone waits so that the hasty ones would pave the way with their bodies."

Krune couldn't help but comment.

"It seems like there are always inheritances, tombs, dimensional realms, and the like ready to be open. I guess that they are not only left there by some high-level cultivators or demon beasts trying to find inheritors, but they are also put at those places by the Dalin Universe Management so that the young would venture inside."

Dilo nodded.

"I think so too. The low realm cultivators and demon beasts that come to the Dalin Universe have a limit of how many cultivation resources they can bring with them. It is obvious that places like this are also built so that they can fight for the resources that they are lacking. This constant life and death struggles are precisely what the Universes Powerhouses want to see. It's from those places that the real strong ones will emerge."

Krune then moved to the counter and asked access to the Hakasha Galaxy Mission Hall network. In fact, not only Hakasha, but it was also linked to all the other No Law Zone Galaxies. After connecting, Krune immediately searched for the Mohie Clan information.

Surprisingly, there was a lot more information than he could have ever imagined.

"It seems like the Mohie Clan is in control of one of the Main Universes that control Dalin, a Universe called Hara. I wonder if the Mohie Sect founder in the Luvile Universe, Mohie Zarks, was someone important for this Mohie Clan. At the very least, he was definitely someone from the Mohie Clan."

Feifei then said.

"Look, this Mohie Clan of the Hara Universe also has the same emblem as the one on your Jade Slip. At least now we know that they are related. I doubt that someone would use the Mohie Clan's mark in the open considering that one of the Main Universes are controlled by them."

Ruik nodded and then commented.

"But now comes the questions. Since this Mohie Clan is so powerful, why didn't Mohie Zarks ask for help when the Rasie Clan started a war with his Sect?"

Krune then said.

"Well, I have several ideas."

"Mohie Zarks might not have been in the Luvile Universe anymore. Let's say that he was the only Mohie Clan member in the Luvile Universe. After he left, the Mohie Clan simply had no need to care about a Sect with their name in such a remote Universe anymore."

"Or maybe Mohie Zarks was there, but he had some conflict with his Clan, so the Mohie Clan didn't help even if he asked for help."

"There is also the possibility that Mohie Zarks wasn't anyone important to start with, so the Mohie Clan didn't think that it was worth their time to help him."

Krune sighed and then said.

"Anyway, I could keep going for hours on this 'ideas' topic, but that would be useless. We have way too little information to work with. For now, let's see if we can find something about this Jade Slip."

Krune then shrugged his shoulders and added.

" Well, chances are that we won't find anything anyway. Haha!"

It was at that moment that Tiane called them out.

"Found it!"

Krune's mouth twitched. Could it be that she waited for him to make that last comment before bringing this issue up?

"Cough, cough. Did you? That's good! Can you pass us the link?"

Tiane laughed a bit and then nodded.

Right After, Krune and everyone else opened the information related to the Jade Slips.

-Looking for the 18 Jade Slips of Mohie Zarks. If you find one, please sent a message to this virtual address. Any price can be discussed. In case you wish to keep your Jade Slip, you might also join the others who have at least one of them to open the inheritance together.-

-Total of Jade Slips found at the moment: 13-

Krune's group looked at each other with weird expressions.

"That was... quite fast."
