A Major Law is necessary to support the breakthrough. That's because the body is approaching the Divine Realms. As one can imagine, Laws are deeply related to the heavens themselves, and it is this connection that allows one to make a breakthrough. However, without a full merged Law, this connection won't be strong enough.

As Krune made his breakthrough, the power of the Divine that he felt when he entered the Divine Path Realm increased. Finally, he felt like he could see that power, although he couldn't touch it. That's also why it is called the Divine View Realm. This is a Realm where one will begin to understand the power of the Divine. The next nine stages would be focused on its comprehension.

As Krune's cultivation increased, his Divine Soul transformed once more. It was stirred by the connection of Krune's only Major Law, Fire, and the power of the Divine. It was a qualitative change that developed his relationship with the laws of the world even more.

As the breakthrough progressed, Krune's Godly Meridians absorbed the Godly Stones' energy faster and faster to support the change. He could hear the Godly Stones around him, breaking one after another before turning into dust.

Suddenly, Luvile felt a ripple of energy around the arena their group was staying. However, it lasted for only a fraction of a second, and it was almost imperceptible. If not for the fact that Luvile was in a full alert mode, he wouldn't have noticed it at all. Luvile then spread his Divine Sense around, but he couldn't see anything.

"Am I imagining things?"

Luvile asked Harold with a Divine Sense message if he had noticed any changes. Harold answered that he got nothing, though.

Krune heard that and asked.

"Is something wrong?"

Luvile pondered a bit as he kept looking around. However, there was really no changes. 

"Nothing. I think I'm just too used to your luck that I'm starting to imagining things."

Krune pretended that he didn't hear that comment and continued his breakthrough.

Finally, the breakthrough ended after most of the Godly Stones around were depleted.

As soon as that happened, Krune and Luvile looked to the sky and to the surroundings. Krune's Shields were orbiting around him as Arcs of Purple Lightning emerged from his body. Both Krune and Luvile were ready for anything.

Seeing that, not only Iem, but even Harold looked at them like they were idiots. 

A few minutes later, the area around Krune continued silent. No Heavenly Tribulation or some weird phenomena appeared at all.

"There is... nothing?"

Luvile kept looking as he answered.

"Seems like it."

Finally, both of them relaxed. Krune's Shields retreated as he returned to his human form. Of course, he was still alert to his surroundings just in case.

Iem then turned to the two before asking.

"Are you done?"

Krune nodded after checking the area with his Divine Sense and Mental Energy once more.

Contrary to Krune and Luvile's expectations, the breakthrough was over just like that.

"Well, we already had to go through two ascensions tribulations in the past two realms. Perhaps, the heavens took pity on us, allowing the breakthrough to go without a hitch."

Luvile snorted after hearing that.

"The last thing I expect is that the heavens would take pity on anyone. Whatever, as long as nothing happened, then that's for the best."

Krune and Iem then stepped on the teleport formation they came from and activated it to go back. The world around them warped, and they vanished with a flash of silver light. However...

"Sure enough, something had to happen."

Krune's group appeared in a completely different place from what they were expecting. Instead of going back to the building where they paid for renting the land for a day, they arrived elsewhere. Not only that but the teleport formation they came from disappeared right after they arrived.

Luvile couldn't help but sigh.

"How could we forget? It's not like something wrong had to happen with the breakthrough itself. As long as you are involved, everything around us has potential risks after you advance to the next realm. This is kind of a Krune-law already."

Krune's mouth twitched. 

"What the hell is a Krune-law?"

Luvile added.

"You might want to call it the Krune's Law of Disaster too. It's quite fitting."

Krune felt like crying but had no tears. He really didn't do anything at all!

Krune and Luvile's conversation was only between themselves, so Iem and Harold didn't hear.

Iem's eyes then narrowed as he looked at the land around them.

"Where the hell is this place? 

Krune and Iem seemed to have arrived inside some kind of cave. They had to use their Godly Energy to cast some illumination skills, too, since the place was pitch black. Other than a few passages, the place was completely empty. As they looked around, they got the feeling that no one had come to this place in a very, very long time. The thick layers of dust on the walls or the ground were proof of that conjecture.

"Did we take the wrong teleport formation?"

Harold immediately discarded the idea.

"What wrong teleport formation? There was only one teleport formation to start with, so how could we take the wrong one? It had obviously been altered so that we wouldn't be sent back to the previous place. However, how come none of us noticed it being changed? For someone to do that behind our backs without Luvile or me noticing is quite impressive."

Luvile agreed with Harold.

"Indeed. However, our own power and perception are limited by the cultivation of our hosts. As long as the culprit's realm was high enough, we wouldn't notice him. Of course, there is also the fact that whoever did this did not try to scan us with Divine Sense. Otherwise, with our soul power, we would definitely have noticed."

Of course, Luvile related this change to the ripple of energy he felt before, but he didn't tell anyone.

It was then that Iem remembered something.

"Right! I remember that the Formations Master Guild's seniors said that there are a few ways to make a formation to change by itself. Back in the Mortal Realm, I didn't know any formations with this capability, though. Most likely, it has something to do with the Godly Energy used in the formations of the Higher Realms. Unfortunately, I haven't tapped on this kind of formations yet."

It was then that Krune noticed something.

"Is it me or the flow of time here has been accelerated?"

Luvile immediately checked before confirming that Krune was right.

"The flow of time here is around a hundred times faster. Seems like there is a gigantic formation underground controlling it."

Harold confirmed that Luvile was right. He could also feel the same.

Krune then looked at Iem before asking.

"Can you make a teleport formation to the outside or make the previous one reappear?"

Iem shook his head.

"Without knowing where we are, I can't set up the coordinates. If we try to randomly teleport with a formation, chances are that we might be caught in a Spatial Storm. As for making the previous one reappear, that is even more impossible. Whoever created this place is far above me in Formation Skills."

Krune nodded as he looked at the ceiling of the cave.

"Anyway, let's use our Earth Laws and go to the surface. It will be easier to tell where we are after we get out."

Krune and Iem approached the cave wall, where they would quickly build a passage that would lead them up. After all, they couldn't fly. However, as soon as their Earth Laws, Element, and Godly Energy touched the wall, they dispersed without a trace! Obviously, both Krune and Iem were taken aback by that. Until now, they couldn't feel anything different from the walls. It looked like they were just like any other cave one. Unfortunately, that was evidently not the case.

"The cave is also surrounded by restrictions..."

Iem narrowed his eyes as his arm crystallized. He decided to use his Heavenly Race crystallization ability before punching the cave wall.

*Boom!*

With his Divine View Realm and his foundation in the first stage of the godly transformation, he could now control Godly Energy better than any ordinary Divine View Realm cultivator or demon beast. Of course, the strength behind that punch couldn't get even close to what he could do back in the Mortal Realm. Nonetheless, it was fatal to most demon beasts and cultivators at his level.

Yet, the cave wall all didn't even change. Only the dust around was raised in the air after that. The sound of the punch echoed deep inside the passages too, which showed that they extended endlessly.

Iem then retracted his crystallization ability and shook his head.

"Should we try the Devil Flames and Purple Tribulation Lightning?"

Harold and Luvile immediately refused the idea.

"Our power can probably open a passage. However, due to its sturdiness, it will take forever before we can really reach the surface. Don't forget that we are in the Higher Realms. It's better to keep our powers for emergencies."

Krune had already used his Divine Sense and Mental Energy scan. Not too surprisingly, they were even more restricted in this place. His Divine Sense could barely leave his body, going no further than 1km. As for his Mental Energy, which can also be affected by Godly Energy, could only go about 2km away. Iem was even worse since he only had Divine Sense. In either case, they couldn't tell which direction they should go.

*Geji, Geji, Geji, Geji, Geji...*

Suddenly, a weird sound began to come from the passage behind them. Krune and Iem narrowed their eyes as they focused their attention there. The sound kept increasing as whatever was coming got closer and closer. Finally, Krune was able to get a picture in his mind of what it was.

"Beetles?"

It didn't take long for Iem to see them as well. 

"Azure beetles?"

What was strange was that Krune and Iem couldn't feel any cultivation level from them. However, they were really fast.

Krune then summoned several Fire Balls as Iem used rays of condensed Light. Even though they didn't go all out with their attacks, they were still not something ordinary 1st Stage Divine View Realm cultivators or demon beasts could take. They thought that due to the lack of cultivation of those beetles, that would be enough to blast all of them in a single move. However, what happened in front of them left the two alarmed!

The beetles hit by their attacks were merely pushed back a few meters before the resumed their charge! They then passed by the sea of flames and light that was left behind after the attack as if there was nothing there at all!

Krune and Iem felt a chill on their backs as they nodded at each other.

"Run!"
