Chapter 53: That's a Real Brother!

The man in the illusory formation nodded.

The illusory formation then showed a space room with several paintings turned against their views, those paints were positioned in different places, some were close, others were really far away, it was obviously that the room had a space manipulation formation controlling its size, just like a pocket dimension.

"Very well, as a Divine Sense focused sect, our focus is on the soul of the participant, first we are going to test your perception through the Divine Sense and it's range according to your cultivation, as you all know, Divine Sense permits the user to see everything around them, the sect wants to know how perceptive to the details you are and from how far you can see those details, as you all know, the closer you are to something the easier it is to see the object, we are going to use a few paints especially prepared for this test, your objective is to find on the paintings the things we are asking you to."

After finishing explaining the first test, the illusory formation changed again, it's showing a common room now, the only thing inside was a shining sphere in the center, but something was odd about that sphere, it showed some ripples every few seconds, they couldn't see through its effects.

"On the second test, that sphere will test the endurance of the of the soul, your souls will receive a Divine Sense attack according to the level of your cultivation, the first attacks won't do much damage so you don't need to be afraid of suddenly dying or having you soul injured, but please be careful, there is several levels for this test, after you resist ten attacks, the level of the test will increase, this test has a total of ten levels, so if you notice that you can't resist anymore, immediately take you hand out of the sphere, do not try to insist, injuries to the soul are very hard to heal, it's not worth losing your future potential for short term results."

The illusory formation came back to normal and only the man was appearing again, he looked at Krune and the others outside and said

"For now you only need to know about those two tests, if you pass them, you will be recognized as part of the Mohie Sect and will gain the rights to participate in the further tests to receive the legacy of our sect, those tests have to do with Divine Sense attack, Defence and some other special uses like being able to see through formations that try to keep the Divine Sense out and some other uses, so you don't need to care about those for now, so what will you decide?"

Krune pondered a bit and asked him first.

"In general, how long those tests take? If we fail, can we try again?"

"The tests itself shouldn't take long, there is also no limit for the number of times you want to try either, in fact, you are quite lucky, in the past every cultivator could only take the test once a year, that's because we had too much contestants and it used a lot of resources, but now there is only the four of you here, and I doubt you have told anyone else to come to this place either, even if you had, they would have to pass the first test outside, otherwise, they won't even be able to come here to start with."

Krunes curiosity was picked here

"That's right, why is the illusion formations test outside made in a city of commoners, also, has there been any commoners living there at all in the past?"

The man in the illusory formation heard that and gave a quick laugh.

"Smart! Indeed, that was a city made for normal people to live in, not cultivators, but just as you have guessed, there has never been common people living there, I will give you four a hint, what do you think about common people, or in the case of this guy inside the illusory formation, what do you think about common beasts?"

Krune and the others were taken aback, what do they think about common people and beasts? They pondered a bit and it was Ao who thought about an answer first.

"Both common people and common beast, without them, there is no cultivators, except for a very few exceptions, no one is born a cultivator, we were all common people or beast in the past, so the common people city outside is just for us to remember from where we all came from… I guess."

Krune translated Ao words to the man, that answer made the man in the illusory formation very happy.

"Exactly, it's a pity we can't make a proper first test anymore, otherwise our friend here in human form would have been sent to a different place to understand that he was once a common beast, probably a forest I think."

Krune, on the other hand, didn't care, most of his time in Katiu Forest was spent fleeing from both humans and demon beasts cultivators, and he doesn't feel like he wants to remember that to start with.

"Very well, I will talk to my friends first and start preparing, when we are ready we will come back here."

Krune was just about to leave the illusory formation when he remembered one thing.

"Oh right, why is it called Mohie Sect?"

The man just laughed a little and said.

"Nothing much, it's just that the founder of the sect was called Mohie, his full name was Mohie Zarks, he was the one who gave the sect its name in the start, according to what I know he founded the sect alone, so he just made things simple and put his name there, that's all. Pretty boring, right? Even the higher ups thought it to be like that back then."

The man just laughed after that.

"Are you or were you a descendant of this Mohie Zarks guys?"

The man shook his head

"As far as I know, he didn't leave behind any descendant, of course, my position in the sect was very low, so I might not have been told about possible descendants, my name before I left a sliver of my will in this formation was Hase Hasik, a pretty common name from where I came from."

Krune nodded and then stepped out of the formation, as soon as he left, the formation deactivated and the man disappeared, Krune looked at everyone and then said.

"I shouldn't have too much of a problem to pass the first two tests with the power of my Divine Sense and soul, but I don't think it will be that much more difficult for you guys either."

Shinja and the others nodded, they know very well how ridiculous Krune's Divine Sense is, and it's not something one should have at his level of cultivation.

"How did you train your soul to this extent? Perhaps we can do the same before taking the test."

Krune shook his head.

"Remember that I'm a wisp, a wisps soul is connected to their core, when I was breaking through the foundation establishment, I wasn't simply breaking my inner core, my soul which is attached to it was also suffering greatly, all that time I spent to slowly grind my cores interior had in the end tempered my soul, but that was a process of excruciating pain, the problem is that you human don't have a soul inside your datians, so you didn't pass through the same process as me."

"After that my soul was tempered by the tribulation lightning at the end of my breakthrough, that was again, because my soul can only exist in my core at that moment, perhaps in the future when my cultivation is high enough, I will be able to separate it from my core, but that is something for later, now I'm using the tribulation lightning that is inside my core to keep this painful process of tempering, but you guys don't have something like that to start with."

Ao looked at Krune and then asked.

"Can't we use your tribulation lightning?"

Krune pondered a bit but before he could talk, Shinja intervened.

"I don't think it's a good idea, I also passed through the tribulation lightning when I completed my universe foundation, the lightning of the heavenly tribulation is something directed at the person, if Krune's tribulation lightning is still the same one, then it is probably something that only he can use to temper his soul. Changes are that if we try to temper our souls with that, the tribulation lightning will see us as someone who is trying to stop it from fulfilling its job and will increase its power several times to eliminate the thing that is in its way, although I can't be sure about that I believe I'm not wrong."

Yusa and Ao looked at them and asked.

"So, except for Shinja who already has a Soul Power and Divine Sense stronger than those at her level, we can only try it out with our ordinary ones, right? If it's not possible, we might as well enter straight away since it will make no difference for than me and Ao, the things that Krune went through were basically coincidences pilled together, and we can't do the same as him."

Krune smiled and then said.

"You don't need to worry too much, let me ask you, why do you think your control over your own elements increased so much?"

Shinja heard that question and her eyes lit up, she even smiled a bit, she knows what Krune is trying to say, so she left it for Ao and Yusa to answer.

"It's because of the pointers you gave us, thanks to that we could find the flaws in our own skills and improve their usages, that's how our control got much better."

Krune shook his head.

"This is only half right, remember that to increase the control over the elements, the higher the soul power and Divine Sense, the better you control will be, so how come your control over your own specialized elements can possibility you to jump cultivation levels to fight those at higher level than you without your soul power and Divine Sense being on par with that?"

Ah!

Ao and Yusa were surprised, indeed, thanks to Krune they have improved their control over their elements a lot, they can even fight those two stages above in the same realm, but just Krunes pointers shouldn't be enough for Yusa and Ao to have such achievement, without a powerful enough soul power and Divine Sense, it shouldn't be possible.

"Are you telling us that our soul power and Divine Sense got stronger because we learnt how to better control our elements?"

Krune nodded.

"I believe so, the reason you didn't notice it before is because ever since the three of us joined in a team, you have always left long range Divine Sense detection for me to take care of, first, because you were afraid that your own Divine Sense would be detected by the enemy, second, because you felt that with me here there was no use in spreading your own Divine Senses to the max distance possible."

Krune looked at Yusa and Ao

"That is especially so for the two of you, we have been together for much longer than what Shinja had, so the effects should be much more obvious with the two of you, also, because Shinja had got a much better training, her control over the elements was already good to start with, so her soul benefited from that, try to expand your Divine Sense to the max and see how far it can goes, the inner city doesn't have blockage for Divine Sense like outside, so you shouldn't be hindered here."

Yusa and Ao looked at each other and nodded, they are both at the 5th stage of the Foundation Establishment, although they can't reach Krune or Shinja's level due to their universe foundation, it shouldn't be that bad, an ordinary Foundation Establishment at the 5th stage should be able to spread their Divine Sense for over 3 kilometers.

But to their surprise, they were able to reach a little more than four kilometres, it was obvious that their Divine Sense were on par with ordinary cultivators at the peak of 6th stage or even 7th stage cultivators.

Shinja looked at that and nodded.

"It does make sense, my own Divine Sense has always been stronger than normal cultivators at my level, considering that their control over the elements is on par with mine, it goes without saying that they should have stronger Divine Sense and soul power than the others."

Yusa and Ao were ecstatic, they haven't paid attention to it before, although they obviously can't compare with someone like Krune, they are definitely much stronger normal cultivators.

"With this we should be able to see the details in those paints in the first test much easier!"

Krune then thought about something.

"I told you before that I have been using tribulation lightning to temper my soul, but in the end, I'm basically attacking it, I have an idea that you might be able to use too."

The other three looked at Krune with expectation

"Isn't the second test an endurance test? The guy in the illusory formation said that you soul will be tested through Divine Sense attacks to test how resilient it is, you might as well repeat the process instead of passing the test, keep doing it until you feel you have improved enough, although it shouldn't be as good as a heavenly tribulation, it should be possible."

Everyone eyes lit up, indeed, since Krune could temper his soul through constant attacks, they should be able to do the same, and the method seems much safer than his one.

Ao couldn't help but comment happily.

"Doesn't matter what cultivators at our levels have on themselves, with this improvement in Divine Sense and Soul Power, they won't be able to hide anything for us anymore!"

Shinja and Yusa nodded.

It was then that Krune suddenly thought about something.

Ao Sulian noticed that look in his eyes and had a chill on his back, just as he was about to leave straight away, Krune grabbed his arm.

"Wait a little before you go, I have a question for you guys."

Ao wanted to cry, he doesn't want to stay at all, he knows what is coming, Krune definitely had some weird thought again.

"It isn't anything complicated, it's just that I have never paid attention to it before."

He continued

"You humans always told me that you feel embarrassed to walk without clothes, but Divine Sense can see through everything unless some formation or something else is in place to stop it, what is the point in using clothes when Divine Senses can see through everything anyway? Not to mention that with Divine Sense you have a full 360 degrees view, which should be even more detailed."

Shinja's face immediately turned into a tomato, Yusa just let out a helpless sigh, she looked at Shinja and then said.

"Don't worry, Krune is a wisp, you should have understood by now that he has no interest in the female humans bodies."

Krune nodded and then looked at Ao, Ao noticed Krune's eyes on him and knew that a storm was coming.

"I indeed don't, but Ao is a male human, so you do have interest in the bodies of other female humans, don't you?

Ao almost fainted right there and then, he looked at Yusa and Shinja and could see that they were looking at him with disgust.

"Cough, cough, I do have interest in the other females bodies, I'm a man after all, but I don't use my Divine Sense to look inside."

Krune got puzzled.

"But if you don't do that, how can you find the best partner to carry out your seed?"

Ao was sweating rivers.

"Well, I guess the shape doesn't matter much, only if you like each other it should be okay to look."

Ao gave a thumbs up for himself mentally, he had answered it beautifully! He should have avoided the catastrophe now.

Too bad though, his friend was Krune.

"I see, just like how we like Yusa and Shinja, right?"

Ao's jaw dropped. Bother, please shup up!

"I understand, from now on, I will make sure to look through and pay attention to those who I like."

Krune spread his Divine Sense immediately after that, Shinja and Yusa could feel his coloured eyes on them, Krune was in line for another wave of pain, worst of all…

Poor Ao was dragged with him, what a friend! To pass through joy and pain together, that's a real brother!
