A few hours earlier in the Darkness Sacred Land. There is a ce called Soul me Hall. Inside, one could find thousands ofnterns with different colored mes. Under each of those mes, one could see a name written together with a little more information.


    Those mes represented the lives of all the essential members of the Darkness Sacred Land. Unless someone died or ascended, those mes would never extinguish. It doesn''t matter when or where that person or beast died, their Soul mes would definitely die with them.


    Ever since Uer and Mino Jan left for the Dalin Universe, the Sacred Land Headmaster, Hule Aforein, made sure that their Soul mes were given special attention. Today, a manservant was watching over those two when suddenly, Mino Jan''s Soul me extinguished.


    That guy immediately got frightened!


    "Not good, I need to inform this issue!"


    The guy immediately dashed out of the Soul me Hall. But while he was out, Uer''s Soul me also disappeared.


    A few minutester, the Headmaster arrived at the Soul me Hall. However, not only had Mino Jan me disappeared, but Uer''s was alsopletely gone!


    "How is that possible? The coating time always takes between five to ten years to wear off. There is still a little more than six months before the five years are up. Not to mention that the chances of everyone''s coating disappearing exactly at the Five Years time is almost impossible."


    "There are two possibilities. First, Uer and Mino Jan didn''t die because of the other Heavenly Fragments owners. Or second, they met with one of the Heavenly Fragment owners and lost. The second option is nearly impossible to happen due to the size of an entire Universe, which leaves me with the first option only."


    Little did Hule knows that it was precisely the second option that was correct.


    "So we are already out of thepetition this time? Could it be that we were the very first ones?"


    Hule then looked at his subordinate and passed the order.


    "Investigate! I want to know if the Soul mes of the Heavenly Fragment Owners of the All Life Sect and Extreme Yin Yang Pce are still alive."


    The subordinate immediately epted the order and left.


    Hule then started to ponder about this issue and thought about something.


    "So far, the Time, ckhole, and Space Heavenly Fragments haven''t appeared yet. If I can find one of them, my Sacred Land still has a chance. Heavenly Fragments always appear in the same generation, so the problem will be to find where they are."


    It was then that Hule thought about an issue.


    "Heavenly Fragment owners are decided by fate, that means that there is no guarantee that a Heavenly Fragment Owner will definitely cultivate or not. Considering that no information about Time, Space, and ckhole appeared until now, there is a high chance that they might be living an ordinary life and had never thought about cultivation before."


    Hule was correct. Since there is no way to control who will be a Heavenly Fragment Owner, it wouldn''t be weird if a clueless human or an ordinary demon beast that doesn''t have sentience received them. Both situations would do the search for those three extremelyplicated.


    "No, there is also a chance that some power is hiding them as well. It is not like only our Sacred Lands know about it. Several other powers in the center of our Universe also know about the truth behind the Heavenly Core and Divine Soul."


    Hule kept thinking about this issue for a while longer.


    "I guess it can''t be helped. It will reduce the control that our Darkness Sacred Land has over the Center of our Luvile Universe, but it will increase our search range several times. If we don''t get the Heavenly Core Owner this time, we would be suppressed until he ascends anyway. So there isn''t much to lose now that Uer died."


    "Perhaps, this was a blessing in disguise. Uer had a terrible personality and was extremely hard to control. If his Death Divine Soul evolved into the Heavenly Divine Soul in the future, there was a good chance that he would also cause us an unlimited number of problems."


    Hule looked at the other subordinates and said.


    "Pass my orders and let the Sacred Land protectors aware. Uer has died, so the Darkness Sacred Land will be shifting most of its resources to the Time, Space, and ckhole Heavenly Fragment Owners search."


    The subordinates acknowledged Hule''s orders, and a few of them immediately left.


    Sometimeter, Hule received the information he asked to be investigated.


    "We didn''t find any changes in the All Life Sect and Extreme Yin Yang Pce. From what we can tell, Wamie Zark, Rania Javiu, and Hobek Javiu are still alive. Also, we have spies in the Divine Path Sect and Wang n. Now that we know that Krune is probably the Elemental Heavenly Fragment Owner, we kept a close eye at the Divine Path Sect too. Still, both Feifei and Krune''s Soul mes are okay."


    Hule didn''t care much about those two. In his eyes, the inheritances from the Sacred Lands put their Heavenly Fragment owners several levels above what Krune and Feifei could possibly achieve.


    "Very well, keep watching everyone."


    The subordinate epted the order and swiftly left.


    "I can only hope to find one of those three."


    Somewhere close to the Southern Protectorate, right in the middle of the void. There was nothing here that one could see other than that far distant stars. Suddenly, a Parrot Feather with a Spatial Rind attached to it appeared out of nowhere. It then floated in the middle of the Space without moving at all.


    At the same time, at the Wang n main residence. Wang Milia and Xin were cultivating when suddenly, both of them opened their eyes at the same time.


    "It''s Feifei Parrot Puppet!"


    Wang Milia immediately got up.


    "I''m going!"


    But Wang Xin stopped her before she could leave.


    "What is it?!"


    Xin shook his head and said.


    "Just give me a second, I will ask one of the Divinity Realms of the n to go with you. The parrot appeared too far away. With your Semi-Divinity Realm cultivation, you will take a lot longer to arrive."


    Milia calmed down and nodded.


    "Alright."


    Xin then immediately reported the issue to Wang Mei, who quickly sent one of the Divinity Realm cultivators of them n to where Milia and Xin were staying.


    Xin and Milia noticed when that guy appeared, and they greeted him.


    "Ancestor Hao, thanks for your help."


    Wang Hao was one of the few Divinity Realm of the n, and he is at the 6th Stage at the moment.


    "It''s okay."


    Hao then put his hand on Milia''s shoulder and said.


    "Show me where it is."


    Milia nodded and used her Divine Sense to show the way. Right after, Hao made a movement with one of his hands and opened a Spatial Gate right in front of them.


    Milia and Hao passed through it, and the gate disappeared right after.


    Time passed, and the ce where the Feather appeared went through a sudden change. The space a few hundreds of kilometers away split apart, and a Spatial Gate appeared right there and then. Wang Milia and Hao quickly left the gate after that.


    As soon as Milia appeared there, he felt the presence of the Feather. With a single teleport, she disappeared and reappeared right beside the Feather and Spatial Ring. It was easy for her to recognize the Parrot Puppet''s Feather, but Feifei wasn''t there as she wished. Hao and Milia spread their Divine Senses but couldn''t find anything other than that.


    Hao''s Divine Sense could go much further, so he confirmed that Feifei was definitely not there.


    "Alright, let''s leave before we get into trouble. This is not our Western Protectorate, so the powers controlling this region will soon notice our presence."


    Milia seemed a little unwilling but still nodded in the end. Hao opened a Spatial Gate once more, and both of them disappeared inside it.


    The ce stayed calm until a few minutes after Hao and Milia disappeared, another three Spatial Gates opened close to the same ce. From inside, one could see two cultivators and one demon beasting out.


    The Demon Beast looked around with his Divine Sense and then said.


    "It seems like whoever came here has left already. Talia, can you check it out?"


    Talia was one of the two cultivators who came this time around.


    "Alright."


    Talia then started to control the Laws of Time, and soon, an image of what happened in this ce started to show itself in front of everyone. Talia kept reversing time until they were finally able to see what happened in this ce.


    "Hum...? I don''t recognize any of those two. They are not from the Southern Protectorate at the very least."


    "They came here for that Feather and Spatial Ring. Talia, can you reverse time even more."


    Talia nodded and said.


    "Sure, but I can''t go much more than a few extra minutes in the past."


    Talia continued to reverse time. What they wanted to check was how that Feather and Spatial Ring appeared in this ce. Sure enough, Talia was able to go back enough time to see just the moment those items appeared. Talia then finally stopped using her time reversal.


    She just so happens to have a Time Divine Soul, that''s why she could do such a thing. Still, it was very hard to show the past, so she could only go back 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the situation.


    "So those things appeared out of nowhere. Howe we didn''t feel anything?"


    The other cultivator shook his head and said.


    "Most likely, those items were marked."


    The demon beast then shrugged his shoulders.


    "Anyway. I will simply report it back since it seems like they already left our Protectorate."


    The other two cultivators nodded and did the same. They opened their own Spatial Gates and swiftly left that region.
