Time passed, and a year went by. During this time, Krune secluded himself to practice both Blacksmith and Alchemy. Unlike the Golden Stars Level, which was basically dependent on the Users' laws, the Diamond Stars Level had a lot more to be considered.

First of all, using Chaos Energy in the Side occupations was not easy. For example, in Alchemy, trying to synch the elements of the herbs during a concoction that uses Chaos Energy was ridiculously harder than the previous level. Even after an entire year of practice, Krune's level as Diamond Stars Alchemist was nothing more than Two Stars.

​​

Of course, compared to the other alchemists out there, Krune's progression rate is so fast that it is almost hateful! However, now he is creating Purple Flame Diamond Stars Pills! That means that his pills that were already famous before became even more so. Also, the Alchemist Organization started to release a lot more pills than before. That is because, after all their efforts, they simply couldn't reproduce Krune's Purple Flames at all!

Krune's Blacksmith Level wasn't going any better. It had been just a few weeks since he reached the Two Diamond Stars level. Of course, being able to create Purple Flame Diamond Stars Level Equipments increased his profit several times. Krune even thought about improving the level of his new Shields. But for that, he will need to progress a little further and get even better materials. That won't be an easy task.

On the cultivation side, the speed of his improvement slowed down. Of course, Krune already expected that. After all, he is now creating Chaos Energy to expend his Universe Foundation. Chaos Energy needs Elemental Source Energy, which is the same energy that Krune would be using for cultivation instead. With less Elemental Source Energy for cultivation, his speed was obviously affected.

However, the benefits were already starting to appear. Until a year ago, Krune's Universe basically had a Sun and a Planet. Now, his Universe Foundation is taking the shape of a real one more and more. Orbiting his first Sun, there is a total of three Planets already. His Foundation one even had a moon orbiting around it.

As mentioned before, the more the Universe Foundation resembles a Realm Universe, the better will be the flow of all the Energies inside. Even though Krune's cultivation didn't move that much, his overall strength was definitely doing much better than if he used all the energy for cultivation.

Still, he was able to at least advance one Stage in cultivation, being now in the 5th Stage of the Soul Forging Realm.

Because Heavin is still considered Krune's Divine Soul, he was obviously not included in this comparison. After all, all the Laws that Krune has comprehended can be used by him as well. Heavin had also advanced into the Diamond Stars Level as a Puppeteer. But as soon as he did that, his progress got stuck!

The reason for that is very simple, though. There is not enough Chaos Energy! Krune is already using his Chaos Energy for both expand his Universe Foundation and Practice his Side Occupations. Simply put, he doesn't have Chaos Energy to spare for Heavin. That being said, Heavin stopped his practice and dived straight into his Soul Cultivation Technique.

The Soul Control level of his technique was made to work as an equivalent of the Void breaking Realm. That way, he would also be able to create his own Chaos Energy. After this entire year of gathering techniques to improve his own, it could be said that his Soul Cultivation technique is nearly complete. Krune had taken a look at it a few weeks ago and was impressed with the results. If Heavin suddenly said that his technique is ready, he wouldn't be surprised.

Wamie and Gilia successfully cultivated the Myriad Energies Technique. As expected, Wamie's Elemental Meridians turned out to be almost fully white. It is not that she is bad using other Elements. In fact, she could be said to be in the third position inside Krune's group regarding all the laws. It's just that her aptitude for Light Element is frightening high! But after Krune thought about how she was even able to use that Light Fusion skill, he had to admit that this was the only outcome possible. Krune is sure that he cannot use such a technique, at least, not at the moment.

'Fusing oneself with the element... I wonder if I can do it.'

After Wamie got used to her new Elemental Meridians, she challenged Krune for another fight. This time, Krune had to take her seriously from the very start to defeat her. Wamie's fighting prowess had just gone to the roof after the acquisition of the Elemental Meridians. Feifei also fought Wamie since she is also a Heavenly Fragment Owner. Sure enough, Feifei also won, but her to use her all.

One must remember that Feifei does have three Heavenly Fragments. Not to mention that one of them is Uer's Death Heavenly Fragment, which made Feifei's Darkness Laws improve by leaps and bounds since she acquired it. Even though her Darkness Laws can't compare to Wamie's Light Laws, it was more than enough to protect her against Wamie's Light Element. Feifei was also extremely proficient in other elemental laws and had her Illusion of Destiny Domain. That is a type of Domain that even Krune thinks to be overpowered.

Of course, Wamie had a lot to improve from now on, so she would only get stronger. This served as motivation for everyone looking at their battles.

Still, once Wamie lost again for Krune, and especially against Feifei that doesn't have that annoying Tribulation Lightning, she stomped her feet on the ground furiously!

"I don't accept it! You just wait, I will definitely surpass both of you!"

She then ran straight at Fie, who was also watching their fight, and hugged her tightly. Only fie could help to get rid of her frustration. Fie didn't mind it, though. Feifei would frequently hug her ever since she can remember herself, so she simply got used to it.

Everything seemed to be progressing peacefully until finally, Cinty came back from the Elemental Path Dimensional Realm. It took Cinty over two years to finally open all 9 Chaos Meridians. She had to admit that Krune couldn't be blamed for the time he took. It was indeed very hard to create them. One must remember that Cinty is already in the peak of the Void Breaking Realm and lived for much longer than Krune. Thanks to that, her control and laws were already very well developed. Otherwise, she would have taken even longer to finish them.

Cinty's mouth was twitching while looking at the Krune and his group. She had expected that Krune would go out to fight the other Heavenly Fragments owners while she was out. She even considered the chance that he might lose and even made plans for that case. But...

"How come there is an extra Heavenly Fragment owner for your Universe here?"

Krune shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, I wasn't expecting for things to turn out like this either."

He then explained everything that happened about him and Wamie's side. Cinty only relaxed when she heard that Krune got a Soul Slive from both Wamie and Gilia. Only with that guarantee would they be sure that the news wouldn't be spread around.

Cinty sighed and then shook her head.

"Whatever. During my time Opening the Chaos Meridians, I reached the peak of the Void Breaking Realm. I'm planning to enter the Divine path Realm in the next few days now."

Krune and the others got surprised by that news. Finally, a Divine Path Realm wisp was about to be born after thousands of Chaos Cycles! Ever since Wally's disciples 'passed away,' the Wisp Main World had seen tens of thousands of Wisp kings and Queens. Still, the Void Breaking Realm was their limits. Not a single one had succeeded in entering the Divine Path Realm before.

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"Are you confident about the Heavenly Tribulation? As far as I know, the Divine Path Realm Tribulation is a lot stronger due to the fact that one gains immortality at this point."

Cinty nodded.

"I asked Xiun, who is also a Blackhole Divine Soul owner, about this issue. He said that there is no difference between a wisp and another race's Heavenly Tribulation. As for how strong it is, he was pretty confident that I should have no issue surpassing it. I should just be careful once I land on the path to the Divine."

Krune nodded. He could only hope that Cinty would succeed.
