Fura then gave a few details about herself.
"I ca from the Wastkim Universe. My cultivation had already reached the peak of the Divinity Realm, but I wasn't confident of my chances of going through the Ascencion Tribulation. That's why I entered the Soren Ruins. I wanted to find sothing that could increase those chances. It's not rare to hear about cultivators and demon beasts who found treasures or other kinds of items that helped them with it."
Liriu was curious about sothing else, though.
"I see... Just one thing. You said that it's not that your cultivation is sealed, but that you used it in the wrong way. So... why haven't you tried to escape yet?"
"Ah!"
In an instant, Spiritual Energy began to circulate around Fura's body. Heavin and Liriu looked at that but didn't try to do anything. Soon after, Fura opened so distance from Heavin and Liriu. However, she didn't try to escape this ti. After all, Heavin and Liriu could have attacked her before she did anything but refrained from doing so. Sothing told her that they really had no bad intentions towards her. Of course, Heavin didn't give the Black Sphere back to her.
"Thank you for helping with the crystal sphere thing. Anyway, I already told you a little about , shouldn't you tell who you are as well? After all, I want to know more about how you got to use Soul Ma- Ahem, ntal Energy."
Heavin didn't see a reason to lie about this point. After all, she was also a user of ntal Energy right now. Besides, he wanted to improve their relationship so that they could help each other.
"It is as I ntioned before. The Soul Cultivation Technique was sothing I created myself. You can see that I'm a puppet with a Soul, right? However, I'm not just a soul, but a Divine Soul that gained sentience. I couldn't cultivate like everyone else, so I created the Soul Cultivation Technique. However, ntal energy wasn't part of my plans. It really ca as a surprise that this power appeared in my mind when I used it. Later on, I modified it so that my close friends could use it as well. In the end, they weren't as good as , but they could still use it."
Fura was surprised with how detailed Heavin was about the issue. But what really shocked her was sothing else.
"Wait! You said you're a Divine Soul? Then what happened to your owner?"
Heavin shrugged his puppet shoulders.
"He's fine and kicking. I only used a small part of the Divine Soul to separate myself from him. He then used his own ways to heal that gap later."
Fura found it hard to believe. However, would they create such a ridiculous excuse? Not to ntion that she could feel sothing different with Heavin's Soul thanks to her own ntal Energy. Fura then pondered for a bit before asking.
"What are you planning to do now?"
Heavin pointed outside.
"We are planning to go to the Core Region to understand what this is all about. We won't try anything against you since we aren't enemies or anything. However, would you mind telling a little bit more about your power? Just now, when you drove your Spiritual Energy, I noticed that your ntal Energy also acted together. What was that about?"
Fura looked deeply at the two of them. In the end, she sighed as she began to explain.
"Well, you did save , after all. As I said, all this knowledge appeared inside my mind out of nowhere, so I will continue from here. By the way, I will use ntal Energy as the term to make things easier to understand."
She then continued.
"Just like skills, you also need Spiritual Energy to generate ntal Energy. However, I seem to have reached a stage where my Spiritual Energy needs to work in unison with my ntal Energy. Without the support of ntal Energy, my Spiritual Energy doesn't circulate anymore. All I can do is just absorb it."
Suddenly, Fura extended her hand as a ball of Black Energy appeared on it.
"This... It's the fused five elents and laws form! You can use it?"
Fura looked at Heavin and Liriu.
"You can tell? I couldn't use it before, but right now, it is simply natural to . However, I've never seen anything like this either. All I can tell is that my Dantian is full of it."
Heavin nodded.
"We did see it."
Liriu then asked Heavin through a Divine Sense ssage.
'Is it okay to talk about the Elents Regulation Technique? After all, only the Sect Masters of the Divine Path Realm can receive it, no?'
Heavin shook his head.
'Don't worry. Krune, Senior Lucio, and Senior Lani use it in their attacks all the ti. It's just that they never passed the technique to anyone else.'
Heavin then explained.
"There is a skill called the Elents Regulation Technique that can achieve the sa result as what you are doing. No, to be honest, I feel that yours is different."
Fura nodded.
"I think I know why. It's because they create it using the technique while with mine, it happens naturally in my Dantian. It's so weird. It feels like it has always been a part of . It's definitely related to the Black Sphere you have."
Heavin agreed with her.
"Definitely. However, I'm sorry, but I have no intention of giving it back. I have been stuck in the sa Soul Cultivation Realm for a very long ti. So far, this is the first clue I got about how to create the next Realm."
Fura nodded, not finding it surprising.
"That's understandable. If I was in your place, I would have done the sa thing."
Heavin then asked sothing else.
"By the way, what is your Soul Cultivation Realm at the mont? Or better yet, is your Soul Cultivation really a cultivation technique? Could it be that this is so kind of evolution you went through?"
Fura looked into the knowledge she received from the Black Orb and then nodded.
"I do have Realms... or at least I think I do. From what I can understand from this new knowledge, I'm in the Energy Fusion Realm. This is a realm where my soul can assimilate any kind of energy and transform it into this black energy that you just saw. My soul then uses this black energy to power my ntal Energy."
Heavin's eyes lit up after hearing that. At the very least, he hadn't reached a similar level. Still, he could see so light at the end of the tunnel.
"I understand. However, I don't know what this na represents. Can you tell which position this Energy Fusion is in the path of Soul Cultivation?"
Fura pondered for a bit more and then nodded.
"It's the sixth realm."
"I knew it."
Liriu and Fura were taken aback.
"What are you talking about?"
Heavin smiled as he explained.
"Oh! It's nothing much. Rember that I was able to shatter your ntal Energy attack? That's because I'm several tis more experienced with it than you are. However, I'm still in the Fifth Realm. Against absolute power, there is little that experience can do. If you were too far ahead of in Soul Cultivation, then I would have been powerless. Since I won, then you weren't that far ahead from ."
Fura had to admit that Heavin was right.
'Well, that' considering that he's telling the truth, though.'
Heavin continued as he took the Dark Water outside of his Spatial Ring. Of course, he made sure it wouldn't touch the Black Sphere.
"Does your knowledge have anything to tell about this thing?"
Fura looked at the Dark Water for a mont before saying.
"Can't you tell? This is also the Fused Elents."
Heavin and Liriu were taken aback.
"Are you sure? This thing swallows ntal Energy like a black hole! Neither your or our friends' Fused Elents have this power."
Fura shook her head as she said.
"I see... It's most likely because my Soul Cultivation Realm is higher than yours. Or perhaps because it is different. In any case, this Black Water is definitely Fused Elents. However, this is on a completely different level. As I ntioned before, my Fused Elents is made with ntal Energy. This Black Water is definitely the sa thing. The previous owner's ntal Energy is still inside, and it's that sa ntal Energy that is swallowing yours. It's like an automatic defense chanism."
Heavin narrowed his eyes as he muttered.
"ntal Energy..."
Suddenly, an idea popped into Heavin's mind.
"Oh! Could it be..."
He then took a bit of the Dark Water out and allowed it to be absorbed by the Black Sphere. As expected, the Black Sphere took it all inside.
"What are you trying to do?" asked Liriu and Fura with a puzzled expression. Even with the new knowledge, Fura also didn't know what the Black Sphere was.
Heavin then smiled as he said.
"Send your own strands of ntal Energy inside, and you will understand."
Liriu and Fura did that when they finally saw what was there.
"Are those... mories?"
Heavin nodded.
"Now you know where the knowledge Fura got ca from. However, this Black Sphere had so other purpose as well."
"Purpose, what kind of purpose?"
Heavin then looked at Fura before saying.
"Was it really only giving you knowledge? Or was it trying to make you do sothing else? If we haven't arrived in this place, would you continue to receive more 'knowledge?' In the end, would you still be you?"
Fura felt a chill on her back when she heard that question.
