"As you already know, they have two keys at the moment. One is the key I had. The other one was found by themselves. At the moment, there is still a need for two keys. Fortunately, you already know where those two keys are located."
Krune nodded.
"Yes. Zule told me their locations. I intend to go take the Mortal Realm key once I finish my Heavenly Core. After that, I'll go check out Luvile's body as well."
Wally nodded.
"At first, I was counting on Luvile to help deal with the situation in the God Realm. However, as long as you get the Four Keys, there should be no risk to the Four Realms' foundation. You know that Sentoi is a friend of mine in the God Realm. Since he said he could hold their exploration until you and Luvile arrived there, then he can definitely do so."
Krune couldn't help but ask.
"You called me here to help stop the gods with your plans?"
Wally nodded.
"Yes. Anyway, let me continue. Now that you have a way to get the keys back, the best solution is to obviously open the Four Realms. That being said, I think I'll return to the God Realm to prepare everything."
Krune was taken aback.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"You will return? Can you do that?"
Wally nodded.
"I can. I just didn't do it because of the risks."
"By the way, do you want me to go there and take the Mortal Realm key?"
Krune immediately shook his head.
"I know very well how much staying in the Mortal Realm is affecting you. It reached a point where you need to linger in a time slowing formation to reduce your power's deterioration rate. If I let you do that, how much would it advance?"
Wally was happy to hear that Krune cared that much.
"Alright then. I believe you will be able to do it. After all, I doubt this Zule would have told you that if he thought it wasn't possible. However, the fact that I'm going to eventually die can't be changed. If I return to the God Realm, it can be delayed quite a lot, though."
Krune pondered a bit before asking.
"Can you explain to me in detail what it really is? Back in the Holy Land, you told me that it was because of an injury you got when you fought the other ascenders in Dalin. What kind of injury is that?"
Wally thought that there wasn't much of a point in hiding it from Krune anymore, so he began to explain.
"It was a cultivator who created his own version of the Death Laws."
Luvile was surprised to hear that.
"What?! Is that true?"
Wally nodded.
"It is. It seems like Purple Lightning God knows something about it, no?"
Luvile confirmed.
"Yes. If the one you are talking about is the same as the one in my head, then it'll be very annoying. Does it mean that he also didn't die back then?"
Krune and Feifei became puzzled.
"Who is this guy?"
Wally then answered Luvile's question first.
"Don't worry. Wassan did die back then. At the very least, he disappeared after the last time you all tried to leave the Four Realms, but I'm pretty sure he is dead. After all, just how many gods can be as lucky as you, Cilia, or Harold? I already think it's a miracle that you three are alive."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWally then looked at Krune and Feifei.
"I'm not the best one to talk. You better ask Luvile about who Wassan is. Instead, I can talk about his successor—a woman called Galia."
Luvile immediately intervened after hearing that.
"Wait? Successor? Wassan was a maniac who didn't trust anyone. How could he have left a disciple behind? I've never heard about it."
Wally didn't find it strange.
It's natural that you didn't. Galia only appeared before everyone after she reached God Level. Before that, she had hidden in the shadows without anyone knowing. You know how long it takes for one to achieve the cultivation of a god, right? That shows just how scary her patience is. The reason I know she was Wassan's disciple was because she said it herself. At first, no one believed. But after she used her Absolute Death Laws, the rest had to trust whether they wanted or not."
Luvile narrowed his eyes. He might not know many of the past gods very well, but he definitely knew Wassan. Luvile then looked at Krune and Feifei.
"Wassan was a God who created his own Laws. His Laws were known as the Absolute Death Laws. Anyone hit by his attacks would absolutely die, no exception. You could suppress the effects of his Absolute Death Laws, but it would eventually kill you nonetheless. If Wally was really hit by that, then he can only wait for death."
Krune and Feifei were shocked.
"This... Isn't it way too overpowered? That would make Wassan and his female disciple invincible."
Luvile snorted in response.
"Do you think it's that easy? There is a huge price to pay to use the Absolute Death Laws, your cultivation! That is a heaven-defying ability, so a heaven-defying exchange was also necessary. To leave a Death Mark capable of killing another god is obviously incredibly hard. If I'm not wrong, Galia lost all her cultivation or almost all of it to succeed in using it against Wally. Can you imagine sacrificing your God-Level cultivation to guarantee one single kill?"
"That's why Wassan would usually not use this final trump card unless it was extremely necessary. At the same time, no one dared to force Wassan to a dead end since none of them would be able to escape a final struggle where he would bring them down together with him. Of course, he still used his Absolute Death Laws, but not to the extent that it could affect his cultivation. At the same time, it couldn't really bring absolute death to his opponents either."
Krune and Feifei nodded. Sure enough, it wasn't so easy. However... Galia made such a sacrifice against Wally.
"That makes things difficult..."
