Suddenly, all those Space Creatures stopped coming. Seeing that, Dudo and Mala finally let out a sigh of relief. Those creatures might not have been as strong as them, but they never stopped coming. Each of them had the power of soone at the high-level Transformation Realm or perhaps even at the Early Stages of Mortal Rejection.
"Seems like they dealt with whatever that thing was."
Mala nodded.
"Let's check up on Krune."
They quickly returned to Krune and Iem's side and paid attention to Krune's behavior.
"How is it?"
Krune couldn't talk about Zule, Luvile, or Harold, so he could only give a simple account.
"Iem and I joined forces and used our Purple Lightning and Black Flas to attack the Soul inside . Fortunately, it didn't expect that we could destroy laws with our power. We trapped it inside my Foundation Space and slowly wore it down. My Foundation Space is a lot bigger than other cultivators and demon beasts at the sa level, so I used it to my advantage. Finally, it couldn't resist my attacks anymore and was destroyed."
Dudo and Mala already knew about Krune's unique abilities and Iem's skills, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with that explanation.
"By the way, it said that it ca for you. Why?"
Krune shrugged his shoulders in response, not knowing the reason himself.
"Beats ! If I knew, I wouldn't have been so desperate to eliminate it. However, it seed to be aiming for my Divine Soul. If I were to guess, probably it is because I'm a True Spirit. I'm different from you all since my True Form is made of Energy. Maybe it wanted to absorb or whatever."
Dudo nodded.
"That makes sense. However, it was obvious that that kid could control the power of this Demon Beast's body. That kid ca with Sect Master Binmia from the Flower River Sect. We should go back and warn her about it straight away."
Krune shook his head, contrary to what they wanted to do.
"Did you forget that Sect Master already suspected that Binmia found sothing in the Demon Beast's head? She is a very cautious person who considers things far ahead. I'm sure she's on guard already, so warning her won't be of much help. Besides, did you forget what that kid said? He said that he would never work for an 'ant.' Most likely, the kid and Binmia were not allied to start with. I think we should keep going forward since I want to check what I can get in the head."
Dudo and Mala looked at each other and nodded in response.
"Alright. But if there is another one similar to that kid's Soul, we will retreat straight away."
Krune nodded.
Right after, their group began to move forward once more.
However, Krune wasn't relieved yet. After all, there was still Zule's issue. He didn't know what would happen to him now that he absorbed the other guy. By now, everyone in their group already understood that Zule is probably not a sentient spirit born from the Heavenly Fragnt as they thought.
"Zule, how are things on your side?"
Zule already absorbed the other Soul. Right now, he was assimilating it, making it his own.
"I see... so that's what's happening here."
Zule's mories began to awaken one after the other. Not to ntion, the other 'Zule's' mories were being added to his own as well. In the end, he sighed as he looked at the Heavenly Space Fragnt where his Spirit resided.
Seeing that reaction, Krune couldn't help but query.
"Is everything okay?"
Zule's attention then returned to Krune.
"Don't worry, I won't lose myself and beco soone else. There was one thing that the other 'Zule' didn't count for, the Heavenly Space Fragnt."
"Other 'Zule?'"
Obviously, Krune and the others still didn't know the na of the kid's Soul.
Zule nodded.
"You probably guessed already. We are both parts of the sa Soul. Or, to be more specific, we are both the Kun-Peng's Soul. Anyway, now I rember a lot of things. First, I was a Soul Fragnt locked in the Kun-Peng's body like many others. But 50 thousand years ago, I finally gathered enough energy to escape."
Zule continued.
"However, that was a gamble. Just like the other 'Zule,' it is not possible to recover in this place. Our Soul Fragnts were way too damaged; we had to go out to find a way to heal it. The other 'Zule' used Binmia to get the resources he needed to do so. In my case, I detected the appearance of the Realm Barrier Dinsional Slasher. No, to be more specific, I noticed the presence of the Heavenly Space Fragnt inside it."
"The Space Power exuded by it really surprised when I ca out. Without thinking twice, I dived right inside it. But who could have thought that the Heavenly Fragnt counterattacked? It tried to destroy the intruder that was trying to take possession of it."
"As you can imagine, I was quite fragile after escaping my... no, Kun-Peng's body. I didn't have a chance against the Heavenly Space Fragnt at all. In my despair, I could only use my last option. I let the Heavenly Fragnt absorb instead. During the process, the Kun-Peng's conscience, known as Zule, was wiped away. It is not wrong to say that I was kind of reborn at that mont. I still used my original na, but it is wrong to say that I'm Kun-Peng."
"But that was not the end. In exchange, I received all of the Heavenly Fragnts mories. Yes, the Heavenly Fragnts record everything around them all the ti until the day they return to the Universe where they originated or are destroyed. I thought those were my own mories instead. That's why I know how to fix the Realm Barrier Dinsional Slasher, how to use its power, its creator space location, etc."
Iem was also hearing everything together with Harold and Luvile.
"It was at that mont that everyone thought the Heavenly Fragnt had acquired a Sentience. You then completely closed the Underground City and trapped yourself inside in the process. It was only after 50 thousand years that you detected my Heavenly Fragnts and used your Spatial Powers to send Iem and there to help you get free."
Zule confird Krune's words.
"Exactly. However, although 'Kun-Peng Zule's' consciousness was wiped out, the mories themselves were not lost. Sohow, they got locked deep inside my Soul. When I absorbed the other 'Zule's' Soul, those mories finally resurged."
"Too bad, though. My Soul Fragnt spent an entire 50 thousand years inside the Heavenly Fragnt. Thanks to it, my Soul Fragnt was completely healed. Of course, what I an is that the Soul Fragnt changed into a completely new Soul. Even if I now have my own and the other Zule's mories, they will not make turn in the Kun-Peng's Soul anymore. I am , Zule, the Heavenly Space Fragnt's Sentient Spirit."
Krune and the others sighed in relief. It would be quite a problem if Zule started to use the Realm Barrier Dinsional Slasher to attack Krune from inside. But it seems like that won't be the case anymore.
Luvile then began to formulate his own questions, asking them soon after.
"Alright, that is good and all. However, can you tell us just what this Kun-Peng is? Did it really co from the outside?"
Zule's projection imdiately shook his head.
"Sorry, even though I recovered a few mories, it is far from being able to answer these kinds of questions. I will need to absorb other Soul Fragnts if I want to recover more of my mories."
Luvile nodded, already expecting this kind of answer.
"Then, what do you rember at the mont?"
Zule pondered a bit before saying.
"Just a few gaps here and there. The Kun-Peng's na was really Zule. He was attacked by soone close, which brought him into this state. I don't rember who or why, though. Of course, only another Primordial Demon Beast or soone of equivalent power would be able to do this to Kun-Peng Zule. That is certain."
"During the last monts before he was 'killed,' he used so secret technique of the Kun-Peng Race that allowed his body to escape with a fragnted soul."
"I do have a few more pieces of my mory from the past, but they aren't of much use."
Krune then asked a question after that.
"What do you plan to do now? Since you already recovered so of your mories, we can turn back and leave this place if you want. The reason we ca inside was you, after all."
Zule shook his head, though.
"No. Let's go to the center of the head. All the other Space Fragnts that hadn't escaped are definitely there, hibernating. I can take this chance to take them in as well."
"By the way, it was also the reason why the other 'Zule' ca for first. He didn't have enough power to absorb those Fragnted Souls, which were being protected by Kun-Peng's body power. He needed to assimilate first before trying to do it with the others. In the end, I absorbed him instead. I also got the mories of how to properly do such a thing. With Luvile and Harold's Power, I can definitely take the rest."
Harold couldn't help but inquire.
"So... why do you want to absorb them?"
Zule imdiately answered.
"Because they all have the sa plan as the 'Zule' I absorbed. Get revenge!"
