"Another thing. What is the Purple Lightning of yours? Is it a technique from outside? From what I read in the reports, there seems to be so kind of unidentified power in it?"
It was at this mont that Krune rembered sothing.
"Fuck!"
Iem, Sisan, Falo, and the others outside were taken aback.
"What is it? Is that so kind of secret you can't talk about?"
Krune looked at Falo with a bitter smile.
"Sorry, it has nothing to do with that. It's just that your last question reminded of a huge problem. Unfortunately, resisting the collapse of the Foundation Space is the least of your problems."
Those words imdiately cast a shadow on everyone's minds.
"What could it be more problematic than that?"
Krune sighed before explaining.
"This 'unidentified power' you talked about is called Tribulation Power. Outside this place, it is quite rare to find people or beasts who can use similar ones. However, as long as you have the ans, you can find one or another around. Still, that is not the issue here. The problem is what a Tribulation Power is."
Iem imdiately understood what Krune ant.
"Ah! That's true; how did we forget that?"
Krune nodded as he looked at Falo.
"The thing is. Are you, the Mortal Rejection or above cultivators and demon beasts, willing to sacrifice yourselves just so that the others at lower levels can survive?"
Falo got puzzled at that question.
"Since the collapse is inevitable, we will try to save as many as possible. After all, we can simply use Spatial Equipnts that can hold life. Of course, there are way too many lives here, so we won't be able to carry more than 1 or 2% of the total."
"However, we are doing it because carrying these spatial equipnts isn't sothing that will bother us. Since that is the case, why should we sacrifice ourselves? We can both try to bring the others out while protecting ourselves against the collapse."
Krune couldn't help but sigh.
"Your problem will not be surviving the collapse. The real issue cos after it. Have you ever heard about the Heavenly Tribulations?"
Falo and everyone watching outside got puzzled again. This place couldn't be seen by the Heavens. Obviously, none of them had ever heard o seen it before.
"What is a Heavenly Tribulation?"
Krune nodded, already expecting that answer.
"Heavenly Tribulations are kind of 'punishnt' that the Heavens uses. We often say outside that cultivation is the act of going against the Heavens, and for a good reason. It appears after every cultivation breakthrough from the Mortal Rejection Realm onwards. However, the Heavens can't see you here. Obviously, you guys had never received a single Heavenly Tribulation."
Krune then explained how the Heavenly Tribulations looked, their attributes, etc.
Falo didn't need to think much to understand what Krune wanted to say.
"Could it an..."
Krune nodded once more.
"Yes. As soon as you appear under the Heavens, it will imdiately sense your presence... and your cultivation. Once that happens, it will send down the Heavenly Tribulations that you have escaped from until now. The higher your Realm after the Mortal Rejection, the more tribulations you will receive at once."
"I believe you are at the God Core Realm, right? In that case, you will receive the Mortal Rejection, God Foundation, and God Core Realm tribulations at once."
Falo began to swat cold.
"How strong are those Heavenly Tribulations?"
"Very strong. Heavenly Tribulations are not there to test you. No, not at all. They are there to kill you! Whether you resist it or not depends totally on yourself. There is no such thing as failing and receiving punishnt in exchange. If you fail, you die."
"Also, Heavenly Tribulations can only be taken by the person or beast itself. If soone tries to intervene, the Heavenly Tribulation will get even more dangerous. For example, suppose a God Core Realm expert tries to protect a Mortal Rejection against his or her tribulation. That tribulation will then increase in power to the point where it will be even stronger than a God Core Realm Heavenly Tribulation. Not only will you not save that Mortal Rejection Realm friend, but you will probably kill yourself with as well."
Falo and everyone outside had extrely ugly faces. However, Krune hasn't finished yet.
"That's not all. The main problem is that those at the Mortal Rejection Realm and above had been hidden for way too long. I know it was not your fault. However, the Heavens won't care about it. In the eyes of Heavens, you will be seen as cultivators and demon beasts who tried to escape its watch. Naturally, the mont your Heavenly Tribulations co down, they will be even more powerful than those who confront it normally."
"Not to ntion that it will happen as soon as you step outside. You already have to resist the collapse of this Foundation Space. If you manage to survive, you will probably be wholly spent and full of injuries. Your chances of survival were already nearly impossible even if you were at your peaks. Let alone if you have no power to fight back anymore."
Krune took a deep breath before finishing his explanation.
"In the end, you will beco sacrifices to save those with lower cultivation. I'm sorry, but I really don't believe you have any chance of survival against Heavenly Tribulations of this scale. All will co to whether you are willing to sacrifice your lives for the weaklings around."
The room beca silent after that. The outside was even more so. Falo then took out so kind of equipnt and sent a Divine Sense ssage into it. The collapse was already bad enough, with minimal chances of survival. The Heavenly Tribulations only made it worse. Not to ntion that his Soul Technique was still telling him that Krune wasn't lying. In fact, Krune really wasn't. Everything he said was the truth, so there wasn't even a need to keep his soul in check while saying those words.
The ssage Falo sent out was to the guys watching Foltan's group back in the Celestial Soul Organization. He ordered his people to go and ask if the things about the Heavenly Tribulations were true.
The Celestial Soul Organization mbers watching Foltan's group were all at the Mortal Rejection Realm or above too. As one can imagine, they felt like a bucket of cold water was thrown on their heads once they heard the questions' content. Still, Falo urged them to stop wasting ti and go make the inquires.
Foltan's group, of course, was taken aback by that question. However, they also smiled bitterly and confird it. It's not that they tried to hide this information. It's just that they are all Semi-Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts. Heavenly Tribulations are still far ahead in their future, so they completely forgot about this issue.
A few minutes later, Falo received a ssage back on his equipnt. Sure enough, Foltan's group also confird the veracity of the facts.
Falo's expression wasn't very good. He even forgot to ask the next questions that he had prepared. Instead, he turned around before saying.
"I need to go out to discuss this issue with the other Celestial Organizations' Leaders. Still, I have to at least thank you for not hiding this information. At the very least, we won't be taken with our guards down when the mont cos."
Krune nodded and looked as Falo left the room. With his ntal Energy, he could see Falo talking with the others outside for a few monts. After that, he turned around and disappeared in a flash. As for the rest, they stayed there watching him and his group.
Iem then asked with a Divine Sense ssage.
"Was it really good to crush their hopes like that? They still had the thought that if they protected themselves well, they might have a chance. However, even that final line is now gone."
Sisan also thought the sa thing.
"I agree with Iem. After all, we just told them that all the Celestial Organizations' leaders and powerful mbers are bound to die on the day of the collapse. Since they are already dead, there would be no point in keeping us alive."
Krune shook his head.
"I think the opposite. At the mont, we beca the only connection with the powers outside the Sealed Top Quality Godly Energy Vein Space. If they want a place for their descendants to stay, they will need to have a conversation with the leaders outside first."
Iem couldn't help but say.
"Even if they want to use us to make negotiations for their low-level mbers, they will definitely keep so of us behind as hostage. They might even put restrictions on our bodies to make sure we won't just forget them as soon as we leave."
Krune nodded.
"Yes. But that will only happen on the day they let us go out. Before that, I don't believe they won't allow us so degree of freedom. After all, they need to win us over, right? I think we also have a good chance of getting our Spatial Rings back. As long as we get just a small window, that will be enough."
Sisan and Iem's eyes lit up! Sure enough, they don't need to wait for a supposed promised day. Now that Krune acted soo committed to their cause, there is a good chance of them finding a breach to escape. All they need is Godly Energy and so ti.
"Let's hope this plan will work."
