Is That A Wisp? Chapter 665

The good thing about all of this was that all the leaders themselves were united for the same cause. Even if their elders are divided, with the leaders on their side, it wasn't that hard for Krune to finish transferring all the leaders' links into their own Organizations' Cores.
Of course, they also asked Krune to transfer more of their members into the same core so that they could go out together. However, Krune blatantly rejected the idea.
"Out of the question. Our Planet outside has no Nascent Soul Realm expert. If I make it possible for all your God Core Realm experts to leave this place unscratched, what will happen to the powers outside? There are enough God Core Realms here to take control of any big power there. I will make it so that the four of you can leave. However, no other God Core Realm will receive this treatment. Even if you kill me, I will still not do it."
Krune's instance was adamant. Besides, he had control over the leaders' links at the moment. They would definitely die if they tried something to him. Of course, they also tried to negotiate more treasures in exchange for more members being linked, but Krune still refused it regardless.
"If you want exchanges, you can talk with the powers outside and reach an agreement with them. For now, I only want our Spatial Rings back, intact!"
It was then that Jamot offered.
"Link one more God Foundation for each one of us, and we will give your Spatial Rings back."
Krune narrowed before saying.
"One Mortal Rejection for each one, that's my last offer."
In the end, the four of them agreed and selected a trusted subordinate each. Of course, they all got someone at the Peak of the Mortal Rejection Realm so that he could breakthrough into the God Foundation Realm anytime.
With that finished, Krune's group got their Spatial Rings back. Of course, they immediately checked to see if everything was still there. Seeing that all was fine, Krune nodded, satisfied.
"Our trade here is done. Now, we need to leave since we are almost out of time. Soon, our companions, waiting outside, will leave without us if we take too long."
Krune wasn't all these events took them almost 40 days. Thankfully, time runs 10 times faster in this place. Otherwise, Jimage would have left a long time ago.
Jamot and the other three looked at each other. They were obviously somewhat hesitating if they should let Krune's group go just like that. However, Krune still had control over their links with the foundation. Before the foundation collapses for good, it will be his trump card.

"Very well, we will send you out with the other group. However, we still want you to deliver your elders outside a message. Of course, the Four Formation Cores are not part of the deal anymore."
Krune didn't mind that.
"That's not a problem. However, we are just lowly members of our sects. Whatever the sect decides will be up to them. I won't lie. They might even try to set up a trap to get your Formations' Cores from you. Well, it is not like you haven't considered this possibility yet."
All four leaders nodded. They are not idiots. They obviously thought about that and many other scenarios. Still, they had confidence in their own power.
"Tell them that we would gladly exchange any other items like the Elemental Essences available on this planet. We will try to gather as much as possible for future trades. If they are willing to cooperate, we can consider them as the first option to trade those items. As for the things we need, well, as big organizations themselves, they probably know what it is already."
Krune nodded, already expecting it to be something like that.
"Alright, can we go then?"
At the moment, they were at the Celestial Soul Organization. That being said, they used this organization's passage to go outside the Celestial Protection Formation. It was quite surprising that, in the end, they did not use Zule to go out of the Silver Core's Foundation Space.
'Well, that's a good thing since it reduces the chances of someone find about Zule's existence.'
They soon arrived at the Foundation Space border, where the Spatial barrier was present.
Just to test things out, Jamot decided to try to get close to it.
Sure enough, the Spatial Barrier reacted to him, trying to teleport Jamot out of the Foundation Space. Of course, Jamot immediately canceled the Spatial Power and retreated. He had a lot more things to do before leaving this place.
The other leaders also tried the same thing and got the same result. It was easy to see just how delighted they were when that happened. For countless years, the barrier had stayed still, not changing regardless of what they tried. But now, they can finally step out. How good is that?
"Alright, out you go. I hope we can meet outside again someday. Don't forget our message to your sects."
Krune's group nodded as they also approached the Spatial Barrier. It soon began to react as Spatial Power converged around them. Right after, they disappeared with a flash of Silver Light.

Seeing that, Jamot and the other three sighed.
"There are many uncertainties regarding those three, but this has been the best shot we've ever had so far."
Suelen agreed.
"However, if we can use the Formations' Core to resist that so-called Heavenly Tribulation and are successful, the outcome of our descendants here will be much better once Space Collapses. This is a bet would take as many times as you want."
Everyone agreed with Suelen too.
"Now, we only have to deal with those idiots who still intend to stay here forever."
A cold glint passed appeared on their eyes for a second before disappearing. The next few years are bound to be quite bloodied ones in the Celestial Organizations. They soon opened a Spatial Gate each and returned to their own places. As for what happens next, Krune would only know in the future.
Back outside the Silver Core, it had been almost four days since Jimage and Foltan's groups entered the Silver Core space. Both of them already began to consider whether they should give up their member and leave this place. After all, the day that the Sealed Space would get out too chaotic again was close.
Rui, who was beside Jimage, couldn't help but ask.
"Do you think they died inside?"
Jimage sighed after hearing that.
"First of all, we don't even know how big the space inside is. Before considering if they died or not, we need to consider if they are not lost somewhere in the Foundation Space. Still, either option is no good for us. I can only wait three to four more hours. After that, we need to leave."
Of course, he only waited until now because he has Bianca on his side. She had a way out of the Demon Beast's body. Otherwise, he would have left to look for an exit a long time ago. However, what surprised him was that Foltan's group was still there as well. That was almost proof that Foltan or someone in his group also had a way to leave this place straight away.
Foltan, of course, thought the same thing about Jimage and his group. Still, they kept their distance since no one wanted the other to activate the clusters' energy.
As for Bianca, she was still under the formation restriction that Iem put on her Soul. Whether she wanted or not, she had to follow their orders until she goes out.
There was also another thing that both Foltan and Jimage were puzzled about. The fact that Pharan's group hasn't appeared until this point. Bianca told them that their initial objective wasn't the core, but the head instead. As for what happened there or if it was true or not, that they didn't know.
Suddenly, one of the cracks on the Silver Core began to shine. Immediately, Jimage and Foltan's groups looked at that. Both of them were concerned about which group it was related to. Suddenly, a Flash of Silver Light came out. Right after, three figures appeared in front of everyone.
Foltan saw that and couldn't help but laughed out loud. Turns out that the first group to step outside was his own!
Back in the Silver Core Space, Foltan's group was led into a room where Gamadol's subordinates passed them a message. It was basically the same one that Krune's group received. Obviously, there were some differences. For example, they were told about the Deadly Marks left in their bodies and that it would take their lives if they didn't follow the orders. After that, they were released into outer space so that they could go back.
Because Krune still had to transfer the other leaders' links, he had to stay inside for longer. That ended having Foltan's group appearing outside before his own.
"Hahaha! Great! You guys are finally out."
Foltan then looked at Jimage with a smug face.
"Well then, you guys can stay here and wait as long as you want. I'll take my group and leave the damned place."
Dolmen's group didn't say anything and joined Foltan's side. Everything else could be discussed after they are safe once again.
Foltan didn't try to do anything to Jimage since he was beside the clusters. If he decided to attack it, all of them would die. His first concern was to get as far as possible from the Silver Core. Anything else could wait.
Jimage bitterly smiled as he saw Foltan's group leaving his field of vision. He also began to consider if he should just go straight away too. However, a minute later, another Crack began to shine. Soon after, one more Flash of Silver Light came out, soon showing another three figures.
Sure enough, it was Krune, Iem, and Sisan!
"Phew... we are finally out."

David will try to find out what it's really all about, what the aliens want, how they work, why is that Fay really helping him? You can kill somebody to get levels, and yet there is not even a form of police? Not gonna happen here.
