Is that a Wisp?

Hobbek smiled and asked.

"Instead of making things complicated with several other cultivators and demon beasts in a chaos fight, why don't we make it simple? Let's go with single fights. I can fight you while Rania can fight Feifei. What do you think? We will use the deathmatch mode of any arena nearby. Winner takes all."

Krune was already expecting something like this.

"We got a Heavenly Fragment on our side, wouldn't it be disadvantageous for one of you at least?"

Hobbek and Rania laughed.

"There is no need for you to worry. We are very confident in our own strength."

In fact, Hobbek also knew what cultivation Krune and Feifei had because of the information about Mohie Zarks Inheritance. He thought that even with a Heavenly Fragment, both Krune and Feifei would still have lower cultivations than them. At most, the one who got a Heavenly Fragment would be closer, but that was all. He wasn't wrong, though. Krune and Feifei really have lower cultivations.

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"Wouldn't it be better for you two to fight together? Why would you offer single fights?"

Hobbek nodded.

"Of course, if you want a 2 vs. 2, we more than welcome you. But I thought that you would definitely refuse such odds; that's why I offered single fights."

Krune started to ponder. His plans so far were to use the wisps to fight with a battle formation. Cinty had promised that the Soul Forging Realm wisps would help him when the time came. But now, he has a chance to finish everything without extra sacrifices. However, that might be, in fact, more dangerous than the initial plan. After all, deathmatch mode arenas will not allow one to leave unless one side is dead or the winner side allows the other to go.

It was then that Feifei said.

"2 vs. 2 it is then."

Krune and Hobbek were taken aback.

It was then that Krune received a Divine Sense Message from Feifei.

"Did you forget? The information about us that is available on the Mission Hall only goes up to the battle against the Dragon Corpse. The things that happened in the last realm are nowhere to be found in their network. I doubt that Hobbek and Rania have the means to find the ones who entered that place either. Although they know that we might have something better to show, it wouldn't be much more than that. Simply put, that is the reason why they are underestimating us."

Krune pondered a bit and had to admit that it was true. They had long since verified the information from the Mission Hall, so Krune knew that Feifei was correct.

"In that case, wouldn't it be better to have two single fights? I believe that their teamwork is nothing to be scoffed at."

Feifei smiled and said.

"And since when our teamwork is bad?"

Krune couldn't help but laugh a little.

"Alright, I will follow your plan."

Krune returned his attention to Hobbek.

"It is as she said, we would rather have a 2 vs. 2 battle. I believe you have nothing to complain about it, right?"

Hobbek and Rania found it weird for Krune to ask for this. However, it was true that they are even more confident if they fight together than alone. If they decide to step back in this situation, then everything they had gone through together would mean nothing.

"Sure thing! Let's select a city in some big planet. There is no way we can start a fight inside other than the arena as long as we are there. What about the Jionin City From the Heras Planet? It's quite close, and there is a long-distance teleport inside, so we can all teleport directly inside."

Krune opened his communicator and looked for information about this city. Sure enough, it was a city just as Hobbek mentioned. In a place like that, breaking the city rules would only bring a calamity for either side.

"That's good enough. But I have a condition. Our battle has to be half a year later. During the last Mohie Zarks Inheritance, I suffered quite a serious injure in my Wisp Core, so it will take at least this amount of time for me to recover. I believe you have an idea about how it happened, though."

Hobbek nodded.

"It can only be because of the other Heavenly Fragment Owner who died. Alright then, half a year it is. Still, there should be one more Heavenly Fragment Owner from our Luvile Universe, so what if we start to feel its presence as well?"

Krune shrugged his shoulders.

"I told you before, didn't I? Both me and Feifei don't want anything to do with you lot. So as long as he or she doesn't come to bother us, we won't go out of our way either. Whatever you do, that is up to you. We are going to do things our own way."

Hobbek nodded and then finished the call.

There was a very simple reason why Rania and Hobbek didn't mind waiting for half a year. That is because they believe that their cultivation is faster than anyone else. So the more time passes, the better it will be for them. Not to mention that it would be a 2 vs. 2 battle, so they couldn't be more certain of their victory.

On Krune's side, he asked Feifei.

"Are you sure you don't want to simply go with the normal plan? I can still use Cinty's Soul Forging Realm wisps. Even if things go wrong, we can always escape back to the Wisp Main World in the end."

Feifei shook her head.

"I know that you don't want to involve anyone as much as possible. Besides, even with the Soul Forging Realm wisps using the time formation to slow down time, the fact is that there are very few Wisps at this realm at the moment. Losing any of them wouldn't be a good thing to the Wisp Worlds."

Tiane, who was beside Feifei, felt somewhat useless.

"But if you do that, I can't help you in any way."

Ruik, Dilo, and Xankruan and agreed with her. They were supposed to support Krune and Feifei during this time, but it came back to the two of them alone.

As for Laex, he wasn't going to do much to start with, so he didn't care about what they decided. It is not like he is a real member of their group or anything. In his eyes, they only have a contract. That's all.

Feifei laughed and said.

"Of course, there is something you guys can do. What will happen to my kid if we lose? I need you to take care of her in that case."

Ruik couldn't help but comment.

"You could simply ignore their existence and stay here in the Wisp Main World. No one can do anything to you while you are here, after all."

Krune immediately shook his head.

"Why should we get trapped here? It is not like they are stronger than us or anything. All heavenly Fragments appear around the same time, so their cultivation shouldn't be that much higher than ours. Of course, they had a much better head start since they are from the Sabred Lands, but Feifei and I have improved by leaps and bounds as well. And don't forget, we have the Elemental Meridians."

Feifei nodded.

"I also have a lot of confidence if I'm fighting with Krune. I have my Illusion of Destiny Domain, while Krune has his Rainbow one too. Not to mention that Krune and I had improved a lot after everything that happened in the Mohie Zarks Inheritance. In the end, life and death situations are the best help one can have in their cultivation path."

Everyone talked a little more and returned to their own things. Krune, of course, continued to practice his Blacksmith while the other parts of his mind cultivated and comprehended Laws.

'Half a year... that should be more than enough time to get to the Seven Golden Stars level.'

It was then that Krune thought about something.

'I've never seen Feifei using any weapon. Does she really not need one?'

Krune thought that perhaps, he could also forge a Purple Flame weapon for her. Having thought this, Krune quickly went to the Dimensional Realm, where she liked to practice her formations.

Arriving there, he could see that Feifei was working on another formation. He could also feel the Laws that Feifei was manipulation while building that.

'It seems like a Spatial Lock Trap Formation. Indeed, only a Formation would allow you to touch the Space Laws before reaching a higher enough level. Well, that's all I can tell, though. I haven't practiced Formations in a long time, after all.'

Surprisingly, Feifei was using that 'Space Related Weapon' that Krune got from Lutin after their battle as the Formation's Core, the Void Sphere. Krune had passed it to her since he hasn't found much use for it in his actual level. But a formation would at least be able to use its properties correctly.

Seeing how concentrated she was, Krune did not disturb and only paid attention. Besides, seeing Feifei moving around the Formation with her big belly made Krune feel quite at ease. It was as if all his worries were being washed away. Krune had always been thinking about several things at the same time, be it while cultivating, practicing, or anything else. Considering that he also never sleeps, his mind was always fully occupied. But now, everything was gone.

Because this was a Golden Stars Level Formation, it takes very long to be finished. Feifei would probably have to stop a few times during the process and ponder about the progress too. But even up to this point, Feifei hasn't noticed Krune on the side.

Krune had a smile on his face at first while looking at her. But at some point, he subconsciously half entered the World of Laws. It was just like when he was concocting his first Purple Flame Pill back in the Alchemist Competition. But this time, his focus was on the Void Sphere and Feifei at the same time. No one knew, but Krune had entered a trance. His world now only had Feifei, the Spatial Formation, and the Void Sphere. Everything else had disappeared entirely from his mind.

This situation continued for several hours, and finally, an entire day. It was then that Feifei suddenly felt something from her belly and stopped.

"So, you are hungry again."

Just as she was about to take a few Spirit Stones to feed her baby, Feifei noticed that the laws around seemed somewhat off. When she looked around, she finally saw Krune some distance away, looking at her. But the impressive thing is that the Space around him seemed somewhat warped. She couldn't make out his figure very well as if it was blurry. However, Feifei knew that it wasn't an illusion.

"This..."

Just as Feifei stepped outside the Spatial Lock Formation to take a closer look, Krune woke up.

"Ah!"

The center of his trance was Feifei, the Formation, and the Void Sphere. Now that one of them got removed, Krune immediately lost his concentration, and he came back to himself. The Space around him also returned to normal, and the Laws stabilized once more.

Feifei asked with a concerned face.

"Are you okay?"

Only now did Krune notice that he had been absent-minded during this entire time.

"I... Errr... What happened to me? I was watching you when suddenly..."

It was then that Krune noticed something new in his World of Laws. Something that wasn't there before. No, to be more specific, it was something that he wasn't supposed to be able to see or feel at the moment.

"Are these... Space Laws?"
