Is That A Wisp?

Krune nodded in response.

"Believe it or not, they were attacked by the other remaining Universe Powerhouses of that time. Unlike today, there were twelve Universe Powerhouses during that period. All other nine Universes joined hands to destroy those three."

Everyone was taken aback, especially Barlo.

"Why?"

Krune shrugged his shoulders as he said.

"Well, there isn't much information about it. As you've seen, I just told you the general information that could be obtained by anyone. The real reasons behind everything are quite clouded. However, if Senior Barlo doesn't mind, I do have a theory in mind."

Barlo knew that Krune was most likely not lying about the things he said. After all, Luvile and Soren were strong but not strong enough to keep him here. He could totally escape, and with his power, he wouldn't have much of an issue to find the truth himself. 

"Very well, go ahead."

Krune smiled before he continued.

"If I'm not wrong, the reason they were attacked is most likely related to you, senior."

Barlo narrowed his eyes. However, he more or less expected that since it was way too much of a coincidence. Still, he waited for Krune to finish before saying anything.

"From what we heard from the sacred lands of the Luvile Universe, it wasn't just the three Universes who went after you back then, right?"

Barlo nodded before responding.

"At first, the Kavan, Waskil, and Makrit Universes came after me, but the others also joined them later to stop me."

Krune already expected that.

"And because of that, you ended up fleeing to other Universes that were part of the other Universe Powerhouses' territories and destroyed many of them, right?"

Barlo confirmed.

"Hmph! It was their fault for meddling in something that had nothing to do with themselves. They should be thankful that I only held a grudge against those three who destroyed my home universe up to now. The universes of their territories that ended up being destroyed was only because they forced my hand."

Krune couldn't help but sigh. This guy really didn't care about anyone else. But then again, even Krune didn't know how he would act if his Luvile Universe was destroyed as well. Would he embark on a path of revenge at any cost? He can't tell for sure.

"Anyway, the records only say that the remaining nine universes blamed Kavan, Waskil, and Makrit for 'something' that happened. I'm guessing that this 'something' is none other than you rampaging inside their territories. Because of that, they joined hands to destroy those three. It was because they destroyed Unigan Universe that they got someone like you on their tracks. Of course, this is just my theory, but I believe there's a good chance that I'm right. After all, it's way too much of a coincidence."

Luvile, Soren, Barlo, Feifei, and Heavin couldn't find any flaws within Krune's theory. There might be another reason behind those three being destroyed. For example, maybe the other nine Universe Powerhouses only used Barlo's rampage as an excuse to get rid of them. It's not like the damage was really that high to force something like that. But in any case, Barlo's existence was definitely linked to that.

Barlo went silent for some time after listening to Krune's words. The problem was that he was now lost. His targets for revenge had vanished. Of course, that was a good thing for him since he was planning to do that. But now that it was over, he didn't know what to do next. 

"Are there any Universe Powerhouses that survived from that time?"

Krune nodded.

"There are two that still exist: the Galec Universe and the Uline Universe. The other seven have also been replaced by someone or simply got eliminated for some other reason. However, there won't be much of a point in going after those two right now."

"Why?"

"That's because you've been sealed down there for way too long. Every single living being from that time couldn't possibly still be there. Senior probably knows that the chances of surpassing the ascension tribulation are less than 1%, right? And that's considering those who survive all the way to the peak of the Divinity Realm. Simply put, the number of survivors from that epoch is infinitesimally small, and they definitely aren't in the Mortal Realm anymore."

"Then, we have the Godly Path Realm. Senior also had to pass through the Godly Path Realm before arriving in the God Realm. You should know that it isn't any easier to ascend from the Godly Path to the God Realm at all. Once again, you had been locked down there for way too long. Anyone who succeeded in ascending to the Godly Path Realm must have ascended to the God Realm by now. However, the chances of ascending to the God Realm aren't any better than ascending to the Godly Path Realm. And that's considering that they didn't die along the way and reached the Peak of the Nascent God Realm."

"Simply put, the chances of you ever finding anyone from your time alive are truly small. Just to search for them would be a huge undertaking that most likely won't end with anything meaningful. The people and beasts that live in the Galec and Uline Universe at the moment don't have any idea about who you are or what you and their Universe have done in the past. Well, the same thing could be said regarding the old Kavan, Waskil, and Makrit Universes, but those ones don't even exist to start with."

Barlo understood that Krune was trying to prevent him from getting revenge against those two remaining universes. Still, his words were very effective. Everything he said was true, and he couldn't find a way to refuse it. Besides, neither Galec nor Uline was his real target to start with. The ones he really hated simply didn't exist anymore.

"With all of that said, Senior Barlo, what do you plan to do now?"

Barlo, who seemed to be lost in thought, looked at Krune's group.

"I don't know. I guess I'll go back to the God Realm. At the very least, it's easy to go back up. Guess I'll just start cultivating again. Who knows, I might really reach the level of a god one day."

No one said anything about that. Ultimately, that was his decision. As for making him pay for the Universes that he destroyed in the past, no one was really willing to do that. First, Barlo was really strong. Second, that's something that happened way too long ago. The ones who could enact revenge on him are long dead or in the god realm by now. There's simply nothing left for him in the Mortal Realm anymore.

"If senior has any doubt of what I said, you can go and search the answer by yourself. Who knows, maybe the things I read in the past are not entirely true. I wouldn't be surprised if many of the things I saw were forged."

Barlo shook his head.

"It's pointless. Something might have been modified, but the destruction of Universe Powerhouses is out of the question. You can't fake that since the Universes won't simply disappear into thin air."

Barlo pondered for a bit before saying.

"I'll go visit the place where my Unigan Universe once was. Perhaps I'll pass by where Kavan, Waskil, and Makrit were once located as well, just to be sure."

Krune smiled before taking something out of his Spatial Ring. He then threw it to Barlo on the other side.

"What's this?"

Krune then explained.

"It's a communicator. It's something that didn't exist back in your time. I have a few of these in reserve, so you can use that one. Trust me, it's very convenient nowadays in all realms. There's a manual that explains how to use it when you first turn it on, so you should take some time to learn it."

Barlo could see that Krune and the others also had something similar with them, so he nodded.

"Thank you. Also..."

Barlo looked at Feifei, Heavin, and Soren.

"Sorry for my actions earlier."

Surprisingly, Barlo seemed to be very calm after he found out about everything. Perhaps that's because he had no real objective in mind anymore.

Feifei and Heavin didn't mind.

"It's fine, senior. We hope you can find something you want to do in the future other than revenge."

Barlo bitterly smiled but nodded in the end.

"Perhaps I will."

He then turned around and opened a spatial gate before disappearing inside. In the end, only Krune's group was left behind.

Everyone sighed. Still, they quickly recovered. It was already good that it didn't turn into anything worse. Feifei and Heavin then looked at Luvile. Other than Soren, it was everyone's first time seeing Luvile's actual appearance. They smiled at him after that.

"Congratulations on recovering your body, Senior Luvile."

Luvile was taken aback for a second before he laughed.

"Hahaha! That's true. This sudden battle against that guy made me forget that I just got my body back."

However, Heavin soon noticed something different from Krune through their Divine Soul connection.

"This... Why can't I feel any Purple Tribulation Lightning from you anymore, Krune?"

Feifei was taken aback by those words before Krune laughed.

"Luvile was the one who had the Purple Tribulation Lightning Source. Now that he's gone from my foundation, I obviously can't use it anymore."

Krune then explained the things that he and Luvile discussed before Luvile got his body back. Only then did Heavin and Feifei understand that it was a good thing for him.

"Anyway, we can discuss it later. Let's go back to the Divine Path Sect."
