Tika nodded in response.
"It has something more to do with a legend passed down in our Sacred Lands. Back then, a terrible evil spirit was assaulting universe after universe. No one knew what to do with it since it was much stronger than any peak Divinity Realm cultivator or demon beast. The story said that even after the Universes' main powers gathered, they were still unable to kill it. At most, they could only force the evil spirit to flee."
"However, it was then that a body was found. No one could tell if it was alive or dead, but that didn't matter. That's because they soon noticed something different in it. The body had an unlimited source of energy, pretty much similar to Tribulation Lightning."
"The powerhouses of that time had devised a plan. Since killing the evil spirit was impossible, they should try to seal it. They tried to do so several times. But even if the plan worked, the evil spirit was just too strong. The seals wouldn't last more than a year or so before it escaped and caused even more destruction."
"You can probably imagine the rest already. For the sealing plan to work, they needed a seal strong enough to hold it there forever. The problem was that they didn't have an energy source good enough for it. That's when that body came into place."
"To create a seal strong enough, they would need the power of an entire Universe. However, if you use the energy of an entire universe to seal the evil spirit, the universe itself will collapse in a short time. Fortunately, that body had the necessary energy for it."
Soren couldn't help but ask.
"Then why didn't you use the body's energy to seal it? Wouldn't it be much better than using the Universe's power?"
Krune was the one to answer that question.
"It wouldn't work. The Purple Tribulation Lightning is several times harder to control than normal Tribulation Lightning. If I'm not wrong, it was much easier to guide the Purple Tribulation Lightning to become the new Luvile Universe's Tribulation than using it on a seal. Chances are that the Purple Tribulation Lightning would destroy the seal instead."
Tika was surprised by Krune's answer.
"That's correct. The Universe Powerhouses then joined hands once more to seal the evil spirit. As for why they chose this Universe, that was basically because this was one of the closest ones to the place where the evil spirit was staying."
Feifei then asked something else.
"Tell me one thing. Why is this Universe called the Luvile Universe?"
Tika nodded.
"I'm not sure if this part's true. However, it's said that the name was written on a few belongings of the body. Since they were using it to seal the evil spirit, they might as well use the guy's name to honor his sacrifice."
Luvile didn't doubt that. After all, he really had many things with his name on back when the calamity happened. However, he snorted when he heard the sacrifice part. He was completely unconscious because of the injuries to both his soul and body. It was so bad that Luvile's soul took who knows how many chaos cycles to finally wake up again. Simply put, his body and Purple Tribulation Lightning Source were used without his consent.
Finally, everyone understood just how Luvile got sealed in this place.
Tika then continued.
"Anyway. The Universe Powerhouses didn't have the strength to kill the evil spirit but could force it to flee. After completing the seal, they guided the evil spirit into the Luvile Universe. Of course, it was after making sure that the Universe's Tribulations had been swapped by the body's Purple Tribulation Lightning."
"They then used the Universe's own source of energy and sealed the evil spirit in its underworld. Not only that, but they were even able to use a little bit of the body's Purple Tribulation Lightning to strengthen the seal without making it lose control. That's how it happened."
Heavin then mentioned one thing.
"I can't understand. If this Universe is such a big deal, how come it has become a forgotten place that most universes out there don't even know about? Shouldn't it have been tightly guarded to make sure nothing wrong happens?"
Tika, Lue, and Hule nodded.
"We agree with you on that point. However, we already told you, this is just a legend from a very, very long time ago."
Tika also added.
"I might as well be honest with you. We don't really believe this legend. Our Sacred Lands even tried to obtain the body for ourselves several times. Unfortunately, it was impossible to break the seal around it."
Feifei couldn't help but ask.
"Arent you afraid that the evil spirit could still be alive?"
Krune didn't need Tika and the others to answer since he already understood the Sacred Lands' train of thought.
"They don't need to be afraid at all."
Soren, Heavin, and Feifei looked at Krune, puzzled.
"Why?"
Krune shrugged his shoulder before explaining.
"That's quite simple. Once someone reaches the Divine Path Realm, they gain unlimited lifespan, right?"
Everyone nodded and waited for Krune to continue.
"Considering his strength, the evil spirit definitely surpassed the Divine Path Realm. Well, we don't even know if it was a spirit or not, just that it was alive. Anyway, the point is that everyone will continue to cultivate whether they want to or not."
"Now then, we already heard about how the Heavenly Core Owners stop cultivating so they can stay and protect their Universes for as long as possible. Still, it would usually take around twenty chaos cycles until they reach the Peak of the Divinity Realm while holding their cultivation back."
"Tell me, just how many chaos cycles has it been since the so-called 'Evil Spirit' was sealed? Tens of thousands! It doesn't matter how slow the evil spirit's cultivation was or how much it held back its own cultivation. Only two things were left to him."
"The first one, it survived the ascension tribulation and went to the Godly Path Realm. Or two, it didn't survive the ascension tribulation and died."
Feifei found something strange while listening to Krune's words.
"Wait a second. Can someone ascend from the underworld directly to the Godly Path Realm?"
Soren was the one to answer that question.
"I think you have a misconception here, little lady. Although we use the term 'ascension,' it doesn't really mean we are going 'up.' That's not how the Four Realms work. First of all, have you heard about any rule saying that you can only ascend from the Mortal Realm to the Godly Path Realm?"
Feifei felt a little embarrassed but nodded in the end. Indeed. No one ever said anything like that. She simply assumed that it was the case.
Krune patted Feifei's head with a smile, making Feifei feel like he was treating her like a kid. Well... she did like it...
Krune then continued.
"If I'm not wrong, that is the same reason why the Universe Powerhouses of that time left. There's no way that the evil spirit would be in the underworld anymore, so why should they protect this place? Luvile Universe was already considered to be a distant universe, so none of those powerhouses wanted to stay here. Naturally, it became a forgotten universe once again as time passed."
Tika, Lue, and Hule nodded their heads.
"Krune's right. That's why we also tried to take the body several times."
Heavin then asked something else.
"In that case, why did the Universe Powerhouses leave Luvile's body behind? It had an unlimited amount of Purple Tribulation Lightning, right? Would they really leave it be just like that?"
Tika and the others shook their heads.
"We are not sure about the answer to that. However, we do have a theory. The Sacred Lands tried to take the body for our benefit many, many times. Unfortunately, it's just too hard. If we are not wrong, it was not that the Universe Powerhouses left it behind, but rather, they couldn't take it. The seal turned out to be so strong that they couldn't undo it anymore. Without any other choice, they were forced to leave."
Everyone nodded. That made sense since it had to be strong enough to seal the evil spirit. They couldn't risk making it weak enough so that they could retrieve the body later. If they did, there would be a chance that the evil spirit would escape. They simply couldn't risk that.
Soren finally nodded, satisfied. That basically answered all his questions.
"Very well, your answers are satisfactory. With that, you can leave. We need to retrieve this body now."
Tika and the others were a little unwilling to do so. If Soren could really break the seal, wouldn't they be losing the body they wished to have after so long?
Soren saw that those Sacred Lands were static and narrowed his eyes.
"What? Do you want it as well? Forget it. Unlike you guys, I have a real use for it. I'll give you ten seconds to leave this place. You should know what will happen to all of you if I get upset."
Tika and the others felt a chill on their back. Without saying anything else, they immediately turned around and left. After going far enough, they opened their own Spatial Gates before leaving.
Feifei and the others could already imagine what the Sacred Lands would do.
"They're probably going to tell the Universe Powerhouses about it."
Soren didn't care, though.
"Forget those ants. Let's go."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Tika nodded in response.
