Is That A Wisp? Chapter 535
Advertisement
Boom!
Immediately, all those who haven't completed their Heavenly Divine Souls got up! Obviously, they were extremely interested in it.
The female auctioneer then continued.
"I urge you to not forget. Heavenly Fragment Owners can only absorb fragments that are not related to the ones that they already have. For example, suppose you have a Blackhole Heavenly Fragment. In that case, you can't take in a Blackhole Heavenly Fragment of a destroyed Universe."
One of the participants of the auction immediately asked.
"Which Heavenly Fragment is this one?"
That was the question for most of the Heavenly Fragment Owners in the auction at the moment.
The female auctioneer shook her head.
"It seems like that little friend doesn't know much about it. Once its Universe was lost, it lost its properties too. Only when it is absorbed by someone, will it come back to life again. At that time, if you already have a Heavenly Fragment of this type, it will then be expelled from your foundation. But if you don't have one of its types, it will fuse together with the others as if it was part of the Universe you came from."
Someone found it strange.
"The guy or group who got it couldn't find out which type of Major Divine Soul its previous owner had? In my eyes, it is just so that even more Heavenly Fragment Owners here will bid for it. Am I right?"
The female auctioneer smiled but did not answer that question. In everyone's eyes, the reason was obvious.
"The starting bid is 400 Divinity Essence Bottles."
Krune immediately made a bid.
"500 Divinity Essence Bottles!"
But the others were not intimidated by his raise of 100 bottles. This thing is entirely different from external help, like pieces of equipment. As shown in the past, absorbing a Heavenly Fragment gives a huge boost in cultivation without any drawback. Of course, it also has a lot to do with the cultivation of its previous owner. If the guy was only at the Divine Soul Realm or lower, it wouldn't change much the cultivation of a Divine Path Realm cultivator or demon beast.
However, it can still open the doors of laws related to that Fragment. So regardless, it is totally worth having it even if the cultivation boost isn't anything impressive.

"550!"
"600!"
"700!"
Krune narrowed his eyes, it was obvious that a lot of those who haven't completed their Heavenly Divine Souls wish to have it at all costs. That being said, Krune didn't hold back either.
"1000!"
Everyone then looked at Krune's direction. 1000 bottles of Divinity Essence would take a Divinity Realm cultivator 1 million years to gather! Not many would be willing to spend this much in a Heavenly Fragment. However, there are always those who are wealthier.
"1100!"
"1150!"
"1200!"
"1300!"
The most frenzied Heavenly Fragment Owners were those who only needed a single fragment to complete their Heavenly Divine Soul. Even though chances were low, if they hit the jackpot, that would bring them directly into the Heavenly Divine Soul. Inside the Universe where the Fragments came from, it is impossible to use divination or detect a Heavenly Fragment Owner, different from when they leave their Universe. One must remember that Feifei and Krune were found out exactly through this phenomenon since they left Luvile Universe.
Having said that, as long as a Heavenly Fragment Owner knows that he has it and deliberated hides without showing any clues, it becomes quite hard to find them. After all, someone with eight of the nine possible Heavenly Fragments would definitely be much stronger than the last guy or girl with the last one. No one wants to lose their lives just to make the other side stronger. What use would have one of the Five Slots of Dalin if you are dead?
Of course, there was also the option to only destroy the foundation and Divine Soul to get the Heavenly Fragment without killing. Krune had done that several times in the Holy Land. However, that also implies giving up your Major Divine Soul, which is always the same type as your Heavenly Fragment. You could cultivate again, but you would become only ordinary. Who would accept that?
Even with the bids going up, Krune didn't cower.
"1500!"
However...
"1600!"
"1700!"
"1800!"
It began to reach a point where even Krune started to think about whether it was worth it. But then he remembered that he didn't really have other uses for the Divinity Essence bottles on his hands. Krune then showed a determined expression as he bid.

"3000!"
Finally, the entire auction went silent. With this increase in price, it was apparent just how much Krune was willing to expend to take this Heavenly Fragment.
The silence continued for a few more seconds. Ultimately, someone decided to test the waters one last time.
"3050!"
Krune shot straight back.
"3500!"
Krune's action was evident to everyone. Doesn't matter how much you offer, I will cover it.
Ultimately, the Transparent Heavenly Fragment ended in Krune's hand. Of course, Krune still felt pain when he thought about the amount of Divinity Realm Essence that he lost. After a pause, he sighed and put the Heavenly Fragment away. He would absorb it later.
The auction continued. Every now and then, a Purple Flame Weapon would appear. Just like the appraiser mentioned, none of those sold so far went for less than 200 Divinity Essence Bottles. The lowest one was a pair of chakrams, which weren't that widely used. It was auctioned for 243 Dinivity Essence Bottles. The ones that sold for the highest prices were the Swords and Spears, going for at least 290 or more.
The day quickly passed, and most of the purple flame weapons were auctioned. In the end, Krune got 5219 Divinity Essence Bottles, including the Auction House's fee already. Deducting 3500 of the Heavenly Fragment, Krune still finished with 1719. A Divinity Realm cultivator or demon beast wouldn't go crazy over it, but they would still be kind of jealous. Erzato included.
Once it finished, Krune and Erzato returned to the room they had rented for these days. Krune could feel a lot of eyes on him, but he didn't mind them. His Low Profile Life was over a long time ago, so he was used to it already. Well... his low profile life never started to begin with. Only he believes that it actually existed in the past.
That night, Erzato kept guard as Krune absorbed his third Heavenly Fragment. So far, Krune had the Elemental and Yang fragments, which are already fused into a bigger Fragment. Also, the chances of this one being the same type as those two are quite low.
When the Heavenly Fragment entered his Divine Soul, it began to awake. Its transparent color began to change into a black. Or to be more specific, it was not exactly black. It is just that no light could escape it, so it looked black.
"A Blackhole Heavenly Fragment. This thing will be good for Space and Time-related laws."
Krune was correct, that was the two main characteristics of the Blackhole Fragment. Of course, there was also the Gravity Part, but Krune's Gravity Sub-Law had long since reached culmination.
Finally, the bigger Heavenly Fragments began to attract it, as if trying to force its surrender. The Blackhole one still tried to resist, though. As much as it has lost its Universe bound, it was ultimately a Heavenly Fragment of another Universe. It wouldn't give up that easily.
Krune started to feed his Divine Soul with more and more Chaos Energy, which increased the pressure on the Blackhole Heavenly Fragment. This fight between the two sides continued for the entire night. Only when the morning arrived, did Krune's Heavenly Fragment succeed into subduing it.
Finally, they melted together, just like the last time. After some moments, the three melted Heavenly Fragments began to take the form of an even bigger Heavenly Fragment. Krune could also feel as if his connection with Space and Time laws had strengthened.
Of course, the Blackhole Fragment can't compare to the Space Heavenly Fragment in Space Laws. Same thing for it and Time Heavenly Fragment. It had more of a balanced structure.
As for Krune's cultivation...
It almost didn't even move.
"It seems like its previous owner had quite a low cultivation. He or she probably was at the Core Formation or even Foundation Establishment Realm."
Krune didn't mind, though. The advantages with Laws were apparent. Not to mention that Krune could feel that it became much easier to absorb Spiritual Energy from the surroundings.
Krune then took a deep breath as he exited his room.
Erzato noticed him and saw that his cultivation didn't change too.
"Did you succeed?"
Krune nodded.
"Yes, but the cultivation of its previous owner was too low to affect mine. In the end, I'm still at the 7th Stage of the Divine path Realm."
Erzato shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, in the long run, it will still be worth have it."
Krune smiled and agreed with him.
