Chapter 511: End of Fusion!
Krune pondered a bit and asked.
"Now that the Light Pillars are destroyed, no one can change floors, correct?"
Little Arty confirmed.
"Yes. Everyone is locked until the realms finish fusing."
"In that case, how long will it take for everything to connect?"
Little Arty thought for a while before answering.
"This fusion is much bigger than last time. So it will take a lot longer. From what I can see, I believe that no less than 5 months."
Krune nodded.
"In that case, we have plenty of time to prepare. What are the cultivation levels of our opponents?"
"The five of them are all in the peak of the Divine Path Realm. However, one of them is not in a condition to battle anymore, so there are four instead. Oh, right, one of them is a Heavenly Divine Soul. I can tell this much since I've been observing him during these months."
Krune narrowed his eyes. A peak Heavenly Divine Soul is way far from his reach. To battle on equal terms, Krune would need to be at least in the 6th Stage of the Divine Path Realm, but 5 months is far from enough to get there. Not to mention that there are still the other three who have the same cultivation.
"Well, it doesn't mean that we can't ask for help. Little Arty, you know where Cinty and Laka are at the moment. Also, knowing their cultivations would be quite good."
Little Arty focused on the monitoring formations.
Cinty was on the 45th floor at the moment. When she entered the Holy Land, she was already in the Divine Path Realm 2nd Stage. After eight years and a half, she already arrived in the 9th Stage. That was to be expected. After all, not only she had both the Elemental and Chaos Meridians, she is also a Blackhole Major Divine Soul owner. At this moment, Cinty was more focused on expanding her foundation and comprehending laws.
As for Laka, he doesn't have the Elemental Meridians, let alone the Chaos ones. Because of that, his speed is far from what Krune and Cinty can achieve. Still, he entered the Holy Land at the 9th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm. After all this time, he was able to cultivate on his own to the 6th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm. One must remember that a Blackhole Heavenly Fragment must be added to the mix for a Heavenly Divine Soul to appear. So Heavenly Divine Soul Owners have faster cultivations than others to start with.
"I see, Laka has a Purple Flame Dragon Pearl, so he definitely can jump another 2 or 3 Stages while fighting. Alacanta is definitely with him, and she is also a 9th Stage Divine Path Realm Phoenix. If we can get the help of Laka and Alacanta as well, we won't have anything to fear."
Feifei agreed with Krune.
"Well, I'm sure that Cinty would definitely help. As for Laka and Alacanta, that we would need to see. However, the problem is what we should explain to them. After all, Little Arty's existence is quite problematic. He is the Holy Land's Artifact, after all."
But it was then that Laex laughed.
"Don't worry. If it is just that, you can leave it to me. I know how to convince Laka without having to reveal anything."
Krune nodded.
"Since that is the case, we are pretty much prepared. First of all, I'm not sure if a fight will even be necessary. We will have to hear the other side first. As for the rest of our group here in the Holy Land, their cultivation is too low, so they won't be able to help. It is better to leave them out."
Heavin couldn't help but ask.
"Shouldn't you look for Wamie as well?"
Krune shook his head.
"She should have cultivation on par or below Feifei at the moment. So she will not be of much help either. In fact, I wouldn't let Feifei participate as well if not for her Illusion of Destiny Domain. The difference in cultivation is too high."
Feifei wasn't angry to hear that. She knows that Krune was right. The fact that she can at least help with her Domain is already an excellent thing.
"Very well. So we will follow this plan. Five months from now, we will gather those three and prepare a welcome party for those friends."
Everyone agreed with the plan and returned to their cultivation time. Since they are locked in this place, they might as well increase their strength as much as possible.
Back on Hanan's side, he reported what was happening to the Holy Land to the Frunkan Clan Head.
"I see... Such a thing is happening to the Holy Land. I believe your conjecture. Most likely, they Dimensional Realms of the Holy Land are fusing together. After all, that's what happened before. But this is also good. If the Holy Land Artifact is really inside the Holy Land, then you should be able to detect it after the fusion."
"However, you better be careful. The fact that such changes are happening with the Holy Land is most likely because of the Holy Land Artifact too. Although you all have the highest cultivation possible for this place, you don't know what to expect ahead."
Hanan nodded.
"Don't worry, Clan Head. We will make sure that everything ends well. But I have a question, though. If we find the Artifact and it is being protected by others, what should we do if we can't beat them?"
The Clan Head narrowed his eyes. That was really a possibility. First and foremost, he knows that Hanan is far from being the only Heavenly Fragment Owner in the Holy Land.
"If it is really the case, try to negotiate with them. If possible, call me over when the time comes. Of course, if you can eliminate any resistance and get the Holy Land Artifact, that will be for the best."
Hanan sighed but nodded in the end. The mission this time around was supposed to have gone without any problems. But no one expected that the Holy Land Artifact would have been taken by someone else.
Their group then discussed for a while longer before cutting the connection. They took the pseudo-dimensional realm formation down once more after that.
"Alright, since we are stuck here, focus on improving yourselves. Even though we are on the first floor, Godly Energy is still Godly Energy. Not to mention that we don't need to cultivate anymore, so Laws and Foundation should be your focus."
Hanan then looked at Julie with a gentle expression.
"You should take this time to stabilize your foundation as well. Once we are out, I'll do my best to get someone to heal your foundation."
Julie smiled at Hanan before she focused on her recovery. Because of the constant use of the Divinity Level Searching Artifact, her foundation was not only on the verge of breaking apart, but her cultivation was also profoundly affected. The only reason it hasn't dropped so far was that she kept taking several healing pills to compensate for it. Still, if she doesn't stabilize it soon, it would start to drop.
Time passed, and the Holy land transformation continued. Little by little, the Dimensional Realms began to connect together. The Origin Realm, where the connection with the Higher Realms is located, became the very center. After three months, it was already possible to see the other Dimensional Realms when you went to the border of the Realm you were staying at.
However, there was still a spatial barrier separating them. Because of that, no one could pass from one Dimensional Realm to another. As the shape of the transformation took place, Krune's group moved close to the place they would be closest to Cinty.
The total time it took for all the Dimensional Realms to connect was five months and twelve days. With that, the Holy Lands had now been open for over 9 years too!
As soon as the last Dimensional Realm arrived in its position, the spatial barriers separating all of them began to dissipate. Krune and his group saw that as well, so they immediately moved out. Little Arty, of course, led the way to where Cinty was discovered.
At the same time, Hanan's group did the search once more. This time, however, they finally got an answer.
"Found it!!!"
Hanan and everyone else's eyes lit up! It was finally time.
"So it is still inside the Holy Land after all..."
He then took a deep breath before saying.
"Let's go!"
