Krune looked around and was taken aback by what he saw. He was totally expecting some kind of cave with lots of passages. However, let alone caves, there wasn't a single wall around them. It looked like they were floating in the void. Still, Krune was sure that he wasn't really in middle space. That's because the amount of Godly Energy here was just as big as when he was outside. From what he knows, the void outside the planets has very sparse Godly Energy. Obviously, that wasn't the case here.

In the distance, it was possible to see something that shined like a sun. However, only if you considered its brightness. Its shape was nothing like a sphere of fire. Sure enough, it looked like a ridiculously enormous white root. From the looks of it, the root was situated right in the middle of this Sealed Space.

Krune could tell that his group was really far away from it. Perhaps hundreds of thousands of kilometers, maybe more. Krune could also see several 'islands' floating in space as well. Some were hundreds if not thousands of kilometers in size. Others were no bigger than a few hundred meters. Of course, those with just a few hundred meters could only be seen because they were very close to the group. If they were too far, they wouldn't even see them.

They could also see that the Giant White Root had several other small roots coming out of it in the distance. Those small roots connected to those bigger islands, holding them in place. As for the smaller ones, they seemed to be floating around as if orbiting the main root.

Jimage Rancin, the leader of their group and their Peak Divinity Realm cultivator, looked at everyone before saying.

"Alright, our objective is to reach those bigger islands as soon as possible. Only after we get close will we know if there are other chaotic areas on them. If there aren't, the other two Divinity Realm members and I will help everyone to gather the Top Quality Godly Stones from the nodes. If there are, we will count the Semi-Divinity Realm members to enter and take it. Pay attention to Spatial Tears and the Space Creatures."

Jimage then looked at Krune and Iem.

"Elder Luako said that if you drag us down, we can leave you behind. That being said, don't expect us to slow down just for the two of you. This is a race against time as well, so you better take care of yourselves."

Krune and Iem smiled and nodded to Jimage.

"We understand. Thank you, senior Jimage."

Jimage and the others snorted but didn't say anything else. Jimage then turned around and dashed away. Everyone else also followed him. Jimage didn't want to waste time with Krune and Iem, so he kept increasing his speed as time passed. His plan was for the two of them to fall behind due to their lack of cultivation.

Time passed as Jimage kept his attention on those two. He was quite impressed that Krune and Iem could keep up to the speed of the Semi-Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts. He wasn't the only one, though. The Semi-Divinity Realm members noticed Jimage's plan, so they were happy to follow it. Still, Krune and Iem followed them like maggots. Not only that, but those two didn't seem the least bit tired. Jimage then increased his speed even more, however...

"Senior Jimage, can you slow down a bit? We can't keep up with your speed."

Jimage was taken aback. His attention had been focused on Krune and Iem all the time. Since they didn't seem to be getting tired, he kept increasing his speed. But he failed to notice that the Semi-Divinity Realm members were the ones got affected instead. That's right, they began to fall behind while Krune and Iem seemed to follow him without a problem.

Of course, Krune and Iem weren't that much better. They simply didn't show it on the surface. One must remember that all the Semi Divinity cultivators and demon beasts in the group were at the peak of that realm, the 9th stage. Krune and Iem were geniuses who could fight them on equal terms, but they definitely wouldn't be much stronger. They were literally an entire Realm below them, after all. If Jimage increased his speed just a little more, they would have to use some techniques if they wanted to keep up. Fortunately, the other members also reached their limit.

Jimage could only slow down when he saw that.

"Oh, sorry..."

Finally, the groups' impression of Krune and Iem changed a little. At the very least, they seemed fast enough to follow them. Of course, they wouldn't accept them that easily. They were just somewhat impressed. Some even thought that Iem and Krune were using some taxing ability do keep that speed while they were just moving forward normally.

Suddenly, Jimage's expression changed as he warned everyone.

"Careful, Spatial Tears!"

He lost his concentration for a moment when he noticed the situation of his group, so he was a little late to warn everyone. Spatial Tears began to surge around them one after another. They couldn't go against the inertia so quickly, so they could only try to dodge.

"Ahhh!"

Everyone heard the scream and looked in its direction. A female cultivator could not stop in time and was taken by the suction power of the spatial tear close to her.

"It's Ramona!"

She was using all her power to move away from it, but she wasn't strong enough. Jimage's expression changed, and he immediately tried to help her. However, he was too far ahead since he was guiding the group.

The other Divinity Realm members were also close to him, so they couldn't help either. As for the Semi-Divinity Realm members around, they immediately took distance from her. After all, if they were pulled together, they would be done for. Probably only Jimage would have enough strength to pull her out.

Jimage's greeted his teeth. Even with his full speed, he would be a second too late.

However...

*Zap! Boom!*

A flash of Purple Lighting passed by Ramona and struck the Spatial Tear behind her, exploding right after. Ramona's face went pale with that explosion. If it hit her, she would definitely be heavily injured since she was using her full power to counter the Spatial Tear's suction power. She had no energy to spare for the explosion generated by that Purple Lightning.

It was then that ten colored shields appeared between Ramona and the explosion. They connected together and formed a barrier, projecting Ramonas's body. Simultaneously, the blast of Purple Lightning Power pushed the shields in the opposite direction of the Spatial Tear's suction. Obviously, it also pushed Ramona's body with them.

*Zap, Zap! Boom, Boom!*

Right after, another two Purple bolts of Lightning exploded behind Ramona again, pushing her even further while the shields protect her body from the explosions. Finally, Ramona and the shields got far enough from the Spatial Tear suction power. Ramona didn't dare to waste the chance and immediately flew far away from it.

The ten colored shields then separated and flew back to Krune, quickly disappearing inside his Spatial Ring.

"Phew... Senior Ramona, you need to be more careful next time."

Except for Iem, everyone looked at Krune with shocked expressions. They didn't expect that anyone would be able to drag Ramona from there anymore. Even more than that was how Krune made it look something effortless. Of course, that wasn't the case. He had to use quite some Purple Tribulation Lightning to get explosions strong enough to counter that suction power.

Ramona then felt quite ashamed. Just like everyone else, she thought that Krune wouldn't be more than a burden. But in the end, the burden turned out to be herself. Jimage wasn't the only one paying attention to Krune and Iem's speeds. The others were also doing the same, including her. It was her fault to not dodge the Spatial Tear in time. In the end, she could only sigh.

"Thank you, Krune."

Krune smiled and nodded.

The others were relieved that Ramona didn't die. After all, every single loss would make the battles much harder in the future. Jimage and everyone else couldn't help but change their opinion about Krune. Considering how they treated him so far, there would be nothing wrong even if he had ignored that situation.

Jimage quickly came back to himself and said.

"Alright. Now that the danger is over, we need to keep going."

He turned around and departed once more. Everyone looked at each other and nodded as well, quickly following him. The same was for Krune and Iem.

This time, Jimage didn't move so fast as before. After all, he at least could tell that Krune wouldn't be that much of a burden. He saw the power of the explosions of his Purple Lightning. It was definitely as strong, no, even stronger than regular Semi-Divinity Realm attacks. No doubt, it reached the Divinity Realm level. That being said, trying to make him fall behind with speed wouldn't work, nor did he want to do that anymore. In the end, all that matters is the Top Quality Godly Stones. If Krune can really contribute to gathering them, Jimage will have nothing against him. In fact, he already did contribute by saving Ramona's life.

Iem, on the other hand, couldn't help but ask.

'Why did you help her?'

Krune shrugged his shoulders.

'It's both for our own sakes. The more combat power, the more Godly Stones we get. It doesn't matter if they like us or not.'

Iem shook his head but didn't say anything in the end.
