Chapter 594: Separation

"Alright, what do we need to do?"

Zule nodded before explaining.

"I used the power of the formations to attach the treasure to the Dimensional Realm. Now, I'm connected to them. What I need to you do is to cut the source of the Formations' power, which means Godly Energy."

Krune and Iem looked around and felt like it wasn't going to be easy. This place just had way too much Godly Energy. How can they cut the power?

Zule understood what they were thinking.

"I receive Godly Energy from outside directly here. Look at the aperture above me, can you see that small disk?"

The looked up, and sure enough, there was an azure blue disk right above Zule. They got close to it so that their Divine Sense could check it. One must remember that this Tower blocks Divine Sense, so Krune and Iem couldn't bring it far from their bodies. Finally, they were able to notice the amount of Godly Energy passing through that small disk. It was kind of bad luck for Zule. The disk didn't seem to be hard to block, but he was utterly helpless even though it was this close.

Zule had the power to control the space in the Dimensional Realm, but the Tower was built to prevent anyone outside from using Space Type skills on it. In the end, this power that protects the Tower also made Zule powerless to block the flow of Godly Energy too.

As for destroying the Tower from outside, that was even more of an impossibility. The Tower was created to guard a Heavenly Fragment Treasure, so the residents of the city were far from being strong enough to cause any damage to it.

Then it came the worst part. No one could ascend to the last floor because of the pressure left behind by Zule's treasure itself.

In the end, he had to wait for someone with a Heavenly Fragment or Core to appear on the planet his Dimensional Realm was located. Only then did he use his Spatial Powers to intercept Krune and Iem's teleport, bringing them into the trial.

Another thing was that Zule was limited by the formations of the Tower as well. That meant that he couldn't intervene with what happened inside the city since those formations considered the residents as trial takers even today.

"How do we stop the flow of Godly Energy?"

Zule simply said.

"Any Seal is okay. It doesn't need to be a strong one, either. As long as it can stop the flow of Godly Energy for a day, the Formations will lose their power. That will be more than enough for me to get rid of this fusion with the formations of the Tower."

Krune then looked at Iem. After all, he knew a lot more about formations than Krune. The Seal would be better if Iem was the one to make it. Iem also nodded and stepped forward. He then took several materials that he was using to practice Formations in the Formations Guild out.

Still, this place was full of formations as well. Not to mention that the flow of Godly Energy was very high and kinda chaotic because of them. Without a doubt, Iem would need a lot of time before being able to create the Seal.

While Iem occupied himself with that, Krune decided to ask something else to Zule.

"While I was outside in the city, I felt like you were calling me. However, Iem didn't seem like he was being called. Why is that?"

Zule smiled.

"That's because you are a Heavenly Fragment Owner. This is something I only know because I'm a Sentience born from a Heavenly Fragment. I can tell that just like my own, your Heavenly Fragments also wish to find and fuse with the others. It's kind of a natural instinct of the Heavenly Fragments. That's why I could use it to call your Fragments as well."

Krune nodded. That made some sense, after all.

"What are you going to do after that? Are you going to bring the Dimensional Realm away to travel like you were planning before?"

Zule shook his head.

"I already know what I'm going to do, you will see."

Krune and Zule kept talking about other things after that.

Time passed, and soon, three days went by.

Back in the lower floors, the elders and other members of the towers had already returned. Soon, they noticed that Krune and Iem were nowhere to be found. However, just as they were about to investigate, the elders saw Iridia coming down from the thirteenth floor for the first time in over a thousand years.

"Elder Iridia!"

They all bowed to her. The truth was that the oldest elders knew about what happened in the past. Iridia didn't know when her foundation would crumble, so she made sure to pass their history on. However, this story stopped being shared outside. It all became legends there. Most didn't even believe it anymore after so long.

The elders didn't make any effort to make everyone remember the truth either. That's because it was a lot worse to know that there was a life outside these cave walls, but they could never have it.

Iridia then nodded at the few elders who knew her and looked at the ones who saw her for the first time. Although the others had never seen her before, they at least knew about her existence. She was supposed to be someone who surpassed the Transformation Realm and had an unlimited lifespan.

"There is no need for any of you to look for Krune or Iem. I passed a mission to them, so they should be working on it at the moment."

Elder Huan, one of the Transformation Realm cultivators of the Tower, was taken aback by that.

"Did something happen, Elder Iridia?"

Iridia smiled as she looked up.

"Not yet, but I hope it will."

The other elders got confused after hearing those words, but Iridia didn't explain.

"Come, sit down and meditate with me. All you need to do is wait. Send someone to tell the members of the Tower to be ready. I believe we will get busy very soon too."

Although no one understood what was happening, everyone nodded their heads and followed Iridia's orders.

Soon, eleven days passed. Suddenly...

"Hum? Is this my imagination?"

Elder Huan used his Divine Sense to feel the Godly Energy around him. He then looked at the other elders and asked.

"Don't you think that the Godly Energy concentration is lower than normal?"

One of the elders looked at Elder Huan with surprise in his face.

"Did you notice that too?"

Soon all the elders noticed that the Concentration of Godly Energy began to drop. After one hour, it became very obvious for everyone on the 11th floor.

Iridia didn't know what was happening on the last floor, but she knew it had something to do with Krune and Iem.

As time passed, the concentration dropped more and more. After half a day, the concentration of Godly Energy had already dropped by half. Outside in the city, the people began to feel the lack of Godly Energy too, which led to some problems.

The leaders of families, clans, organizations, etc. began to gather outside the Godly Tower. After all, the Godly Energy was provided by none other than the later. If there isn't Godly Energy, that means that something is happening in the Tower.

The guards outside began to feel worried too since they wouldn't be able to hold everyone in case all of them attacked. However, one of the Transformation Realm elders came outside to see it, which made the guards relieved.

"Senior Fuiwan, what is happening with the tower?"

Fuiwan, one of the Transformation Realm elders, shook his head.

"We don't know. The concentration of Godly Energy inside the Tower is dropping fast too."

Everyone was taken aback. If they don't get Godly Energy anymore, they won't be able to cultivate. Obviously, everyone became preoccupied. There were even a few that thought that Fuiwan and Godly Tower were hiding something. They couldn't be blamed since everyone considered Godly Energy extremely important.

However, no one expected Fuiwan's next words.

"Guards, open the path. Let everyone who wishes to enter pass through."

Fuiwan then looked at the rest of the people.

"The leader of our Godly Tower stated that anyone who wanted to enter could do so. However, only those at the Transformation Realm will be able to follow me to where she is."

Although the Transformation Realm cultivators of the Godly Tower were the strongest ones, they weren't the only ones available in the city. In general, any big significant power in the city had one too. After all, the Tower Elders wouldn't be enough to protect the city during Beast Hordes.

Everyone with enough cultivation level then followed Fuiwan. For the majority, it was the first time seeing the interior of the Tower. As they went up, they understood why only those at the Transformation Realm would be able to follow Fuiwan. The pressure was too great for anyone without enough cultivation, after all.

After they all arrived on the 11th floor, they saw Iridia's figure. However, no one had ever seen her before.

Iridia smiled and invited those Transformation Realm leaders to a chat. As for the Godly Energy issue, they were told that something is happening in the Last Floor of the Tower, but no one can go there. Without another choice, they could only wait with Iridia and the elders on the 11th floor.

As everyone was at a loss, the time continued to pass. Finally, Godly Energy completely disappeared. But no one had the time to complain. That's because, at the same time, the Tower began to tremble!
