Laka smiled playfully and then showed 4 tokens. Seeing them, Laex immediately got shocked.

"You! How did you get this many tokens?"

​​

Laka laughed out loud.

"You were right to say that the Uelin Universe did their best to get me a slot. But it wasn't only for me but all the remaining Heavenly Fragment owners. At first, they didn't know if the Battle for the Heavenly Fragments would finish fast enough or if it would even finish. After all, the Uelin Universe is controlled by more than a single faction."

"Because of that, they got a total of 4 slots. Each faction was expecting to send their own Heavenly Fragment Owners inside. Perhaps, the Heavenly Divine Soul would be born during that time. But who could have guessed that due to some agreement between all parties, the battle would be carried over earlier? In the end, other than my own token, I also got the other three."

Laex couldn't help but ask.

"But how exactly did you convince them to give the other three? As far as I know, each one of them is extremely valuable. There is no doubt that those factions in your Universe lost a layer of skin for these tokens."

Laka shrugged his shoulders and said.

"That was part of the agreement back then, and all factions were more than happy to accept it. After all, as long as their Heavenly Fragment Owner was victorious, they would be the ones getting these tokens. As for why I'm the one holding them, that is because I demanded it."

The others got curious.

"Demanded it?"

Laka nodded.

"Since I will be the Heavenly Divine Soul Owner for the next few Chaos Cycles, I obviously had to use the power of this position. I simply told them that I want to be the one to select the users of these tokens. Anyway, as valuable as they might be, the extra three tokens were not bought by the faction supporting me. Thanks to that, I was able to convince them."

"At first, I was intending to sell them, but a Purple Flame Dragon Pearl is way more valuable than anything I could use at my current level."

Krune then decided to warn him.

"I have never tried to make a Dragon Pearl Before. Also, I don't know if the Purple Flame Effect will work on it. Even if it works, I can't guarantee that it will be a good thing. Since you already know so much about my Purple Flame Equipments, you definitely understand that it is a tyrannical power. Are you willing to go ahead with this trade regardless?"

Laka nodded.

"Just the chance is already enough. If such a Dragon Pearl falls on my hands, I will probably be able to get one of the Dalin Universe's five seats during the next Heavenly Competition. You definitely know just how vital such a position is for a Universe as a whole."

Krune had to admit that he was right. Being one of the Universe in control of Dalin would increase the whole Universe combat power by several times. It is definitely worth a try.

"Very well."

Krune then looked at everyone and said.

"Now, we just need to decide who are going to use those three extra tokens."

Laka shook his head.

"There is no need. Every token owner has the power to bring two companions with them. If you count my own, there are 10 positions available for you. That should be enough to bring this entire group. Oh, right. I say 10 because one slot is already reserved for a protector that my Universe forced to my side."

Krune was taken aback. It was already an excellent deal to have three slots, but he didn't think he would be able to bring everyone in.

"That is quite generous. Why didn't you offer a single one instead? I would definitely go ahead with this deal regardless."

Laka shook his head.

"I want you to put your all into this Dragon Pearl, so I'm putting my all. Besides, although I planned to sell them earlier, the fact is that I don't lack resources. Don't forget, I'm the Heavenly Divine Soul Owner of an Entire Universe. Do you think I need more cultivation resources than what I can get? This grandfather is rich! If I wanted, it would be easy to get a common Dragon Pearl."

The others couldn't help but agree with him.

"Oh, right. When will the Holy land be opening?"

Cinty answered that.

"It should happen 1 year from now."

Krune pondered a bit and then said.

"Very well. Six months from now, I will start Laex and Laka's Dragon Pearls creation. This is also an excellent opportunity for me since such a laborious crafting process will help in my Blacksmith practice a lot."

"Six Months?"

Krune nodded.

"I want to reach the Five Diamond Stars Level first."

Only then did Laka notice a huge issue.

"Wait! I thought your Diamond Stars weapons were being forged by someone else while using your Purple Flames. Wasn't that the case?"

Laka couldn't be blamed for thinking like that. After all, one can only become a Diamond Stars Blacksmith once they are able to use Chaos Energy. But Krune is still in the Soul Forging Realm, so Laka found the notion of Krune becoming a Five Diamond Stars Blacksmith ridiculous!

"Oh! Indeed. My first ten or so Diamond Stars Weapons were really crafted by someone else. But I have no need for this help anymore, I can create Chaos Energy myself."

Laka was shocked to hear that. He had never heard about a Soul Forging Realm creating Chaos Energy before.

Laex patted his shoulder and said.

"Let's make our Dragon pact. I'm also adding in the terms that you shall not say anything about Krune and the others. So make sure to keep this information for yourself. Haha!"

Laka sighed and then nodded. As impressive as it is to create Chaos Energy at Krune's level, it has nothing to do with him. If anything, his Purple Flame Dragon Pearl will be crafter a lot earlier than expected, so it is a good outcome.
