Pharan then stepped forward to ask.
"First, how about you let us take a look at what is inside that building?"
Jimage and the others narrowed their eyes. However, they weren't surprised by this. With the situation having reached this point, there is no way that their group would be able to stop both the Flower River and the Three Peaks. In the end, Jimage shrugged his shoulders.
"Let them pass. It's not like we have found anything yet anyway."
Krune and the rest nodded their head and quickly stepped aside.
Pharan and Foltan nodded, satisfied. If the Sky Shifting Sect really tries to stop them, they could simply attack them together. However, they would rather avoid this until they make heads and tails of what is happening.
Just like that, the three groups entered the building. Obviously, each team had at least one member who knew about formations, so the other two groups immediately understood what it was about.
"What is Heaven Break?"
Jimage shook his head.
"No idea. It might be a cultivator or a demon beast. Maybe it is a Sect or some kind of ancient organization. Regardless of which one, I have no idea."
Pharan and Foltan didn't know whether it was true or not. However, their groups already confirmed that this teleport formation is indeed extremely old.
Xanala, the other Divinity Realm member of Krune's group, asked the other groups' formations masters.
"We can stabilize the formation to make it more secure. However, it would cost quite a few materials, which I don't have enough. In a certain way, if you guys didn't appear, we would not be able to fix it. Of course, we could have tried to use it as it is, but it would be too risky. So how about this. Let's share the materials necessary and work on the formation together. I believe neither of you would have an issue with this arrangement, right?"
Pharan and Foltan looked at their formations masters, and both sides nodded. They knew that this would be the best thing to do. After all, it would be dangerous to let just one of the groups to work on the formation.

'We could join our forces and take care of the Sky Shifting Sect first. Then we could go inside to take a look after.'
Foltan shook his head.
'We have the advantage in numbers, but considering the similarity in power, there is no way we can take care of all of them. If we were to enter the formation and they come back after to destroy it, we would be trapped inside. We don't know what is there, so I don't wanna risk losing our way back.'
Pharan pondered a bit and accessed the Sky Shifting Sect's group. They could leave some people outside defending the formation. But that also would mean that their forces inside would be affected. That's not all. If he were to guess who of the Sky Shifting Sect would be able to escape, that was probably Jimage and the other two Divinity Realm members. That meant that the ones who needed to stay outside protecting the formation were himself and Foltan. Pharan immediately cast that idea away. There is no way that he would stay out waiting.
There was one more problem. Pharan couldn't really trust the Three Peaks Sect's group completely. Nothing guaranteed that they didn't instead form an alliance with the Sky Shifting Group to take care of them.
'What about we deal with them after we enter the Dimensional Realm?'
Foltan pondered a bit and nodded.
'That is plausible.'
Jimage knew that they were talking in secret with Divine Sense, and he could also imagine what they were thinking. However, he simply smiled and didn't mind that too much.
A moment later, Pharan and Foltan turned their eyes back to the Sky Shifting Sect's group.
"Alright. We will fix the formation and enter it together."
Jimage laughed.
"Great! Now then..."
Jimage took out an item and threw it at Kalen, one of the Peak Semi-Divinity Realm members of their group. When Pharan and Foltan saw that item, they were taken aback.
"God Thunder Beads? What is the meaning of this?"
Jimage smile was still as bright as ever.
"Nothing much. As you know, God Thunder Beads can release an attack roughly at the Divinity Realm early stages of power. It's quite expensive and easy to avoid, but it will serve the purpose I need it for. I will simply have one of my members wait outside with this thing. After all, formations can't dodge."
Jimage then threw another item to Kalen. This time it was half of a collar.
"Kalen, I will bring the other half with me. If you see your half shattering, that means we were ambushed or perished. In that case, use the God Thunder Beads to destroy the formation."
Pharan and Foltan's expressions went dark after hearing that. It was evident that he was threatening them to not try playing any tricks.
Jimage ignored their dark faces and continued.
"Of course, your two can also leave someone outside to watch over the formation. If any of your teams dies inside, you can have them destroy it as well. Or maybe we will all die inside, who knows? Regardless, I recommend your two groups to not try anything weird. I'm not very good at controlling my strength. I might shatter the half of the collar in my possession by mistake. I don't think either of you would want it, right?"
Although Foltan and Pharan were displeased with it, they knew that Jimage would not change his mind about leaving a member of his group outside. Without a doubt, he will demand that all Divinity Realm members enter the formation, leaving only a Semi-Divinity one protecting it. This place also never got Space Creatures or Spatial Tears, so there was no risk to leave them here. The worst part was the God Thunder Beads. Jimage had given three of these to his group member. If he activated all three simultaneously, the other two who stayed outside wouldn't be able to stop him from destroying the formation.
However, it was also true that their own members could do the same thing. That guaranteed that neither side would be idiot enough to ally with another to get rid of one.
Of course, Jimage knew what they were thinking.
"However, I can also go away with my group and leave you guys on your own. To be honest, I'm still uncertain if it is better to collect more Top Quality Godly Stones instead of entering the Dimensional Realm. Not to mention that we only have a week to stay inside, so we might not have time to do anything there. If you agree with my idea, we can begin to repair the formation together and enter it. If not, I can totally leave and promise to not get close to this place anymore."
Jimage wasn't lying. He was really in doubt about which was the best course of action. If he leaves with his group, he can use Krune's ability to acquire a large number of Top Quality Godly Stones. Obviously, the sect wouldn't blame him even if they lose something important. In case there was nothing worthing a look inside, then he would have made the right decision.
"Hmph! Who can guarantee that you really won't come back? Very well, my Flower River Sect group agrees with your idea."
Pharan then turned to one of his group members and threw him an item with a similar effect to Jimage's two half collars. Also, he passed to him God Fire Beads, which basically had the same impact as Jimage's God Thunder ones.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Sevodan, you stay outside. Destroy the formation if you see that something happened to us."
Sevodan quickly received the items and nodded.
Foltan pondered a bit and nodded in the end.
"My Three Peaks Sect group will also do the same."
He selected a member of his group and made similar arrangements with him. Just like that, the three groups were ready to start.
"Alright. We have been inside the Sealed Space for half a day already. Let's start the formation repair."
Jimage then looked at Xalana and Iem before asking.
"How long do you think it will take?"
The two of them looked at the formation again for a few minutes before saying.
"It isn't anything complicated. The Dimensional Realm is situated inside this Sealed Space, so it is very close. It shouldn't take us more than two hours if all three sides join hands to fix this thing."
Pharan and Foltan's groups also reached the same conclusion.
"Very well. Everyone, bring out your items and see what we need to repair it."
All three sides already knew more or less what they would need to repair it, so they quickly brought out one-third of the necessary materials each. They spent a few minutes talking about how they would fix and each one's roles. Finally, they began their work.
Time passed, and the formations masters paced back and forth above the formation. Thankfully, Iem was also a Formations Master, so things got even faster with his help too. Instead of two hours, they only took one and a half, which was already very good. After that, they stepped outside and tested it with some random items.
With a flash of silver light, the items above the formation disappeared.
"Alright, the formation seems stable enough. Everyone, let's go."
