chapter-1121
Upon seeing that the Predominated Vine was able to live well in the surroundings, Krune and Zamura heaved a sigh in relief. However, they didn't take action hurriedly, watching what the Predominated Vine did.
It first remained in place before uprooting itself as it roamed through the place, carrying all its precious soil with it, soon stopping before the altar. It saw the equipment spirit emerge from the altar, looking no different to a Predominated Vine.
Upon sensing the source of the suppression effect was from the altar, it planted itself nearby.
For a moment, the two people felt as if the Predominated Vine let out a chuckle upon the comfort, muttering simultaneously, "So, they're heading towards the place with the greatest concentration of the Suppression Law."
"It would become chaotic if we drop too many at once. Let's drop them in small batches," Zamura said."Alright, using my clones, I can drop them at various locations simultaneously. This way, they won't have to fight each other for the spots around the altar," Krune said, letting out his clones that took up spots around the altar. At the very next moment, the subspace appeared within a clone that took out the Pocket Ring from within and let out a Predominated Vine.
Then, it placed the Pocket Ring within the subspace. The subspace appeared within another clone as the same process was repeated.
The Predominated Vines appeared in places one after another. And as expected, they began to march towards the altar.
Krune had planned accordingly, sensing through the Pocket Ring using his Mental Energy. Thanks to this, he only let out the strongest of the Predominated Vines first. He then released them in the decreasing order of their strength, eventually emptying them all out.
Eventually, he arrived at an empty spot on the large floating island, causing a clone to take the form of the Escapist as Krune and Zamura boarded it. All the remaining clones of Krune already left the place, heading out to perform their respective duties.
Now that they were high up in the air, Krune activated the Pocket Ring, pouring out all the Mashed Serpents on the ground. The numbers were enormous as they piled up into a massive hill.
They were startled at first before sensing the Predominated Vines situated nearby, forming numerous streams as they slithered into the forest of Predominated Vines."It's done." Krune sighed, noticing the suppression effect in the place slowly increase in strength as he spoke, "Unlike the Four Sectors' Border Region, there's a Godly Vein here that's fuelling them. So in the future, this would easily surpass the one on Zamuria Continent."
"Thanks to the altar spirit here, everything would proceed more smoothly," Zamura said. "I think what you spoke of will happen within a couple of centuries. All we need is for some of them to break through to the Semi-God Realm first. That'll condense the Suppression Law here to a considerable extent and allow their population to boom further."
"I plan to help them achieve that," Krune said. "I'll use my development effect on them, increasing their body weight first. This way, they'll grow stronger and be able to attempt a breakthrough soon enough."
Krune then thought for a moment before smirking, "In fact, I'm confident of making one breakthrough within a year. This was the strongest Predominated Vine that I managed to capture by luck since it was roaming in the outermost regions…"
Boom!
But right as he was talking, tribulation clouds condensed in the sky before a thick bolt of lightning landed on a Predominated Vine. It had attempted a breakthrough.
The altar spirit appeared once, taking note of the situation before disappearing. The amount of Godly Energy it produced with the suppression effect doubled all of a sudden, allowing the Predominated Vine some reprieve to withstand the tribulation lightning.
"I was planning to help it first. It would just die upon attempting to breakthrough now…" Krune was just about to retort when an intense sound of thunder caused him to shield his ears.
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
As sudden as it had appeared, the tribulation clouds increased in number before even more lightning bolts flashed. It wasn't just one Predominated Vine that had attempted a breakthrough, but almost thirty of them, everyone that formed the inner circle surrounding the altar.
Lightning flashed while thunder boomed. The light flickered, highlighting Krune's face in it, one that looked like it had been slapped numerous times. It was apparent that the Predominated Vines were angry at him and had taken action to prove him wrong.
"Wait…I think I know the reason now." Zamura thought for a minute before saying, "Remember how all the Predominated Vines in the Semi-God Realm were in the core of the region? Those beyond that core region were only at the Nascent God Realm, despite them possessing enough power to attempt a breakthrough."
As Krune nodded, Zamura continued, "It seemed the Semi-God Realm Predominated Vines were actually suppressing the others from attempting a breakthrough. I can't say the reason for sure, but it seems the cause had been to prevent the Suppression Law of the place from becoming any more potent."
"And now..." He laughed, pointing at the scene before them, "This is the best chance for these Predominated Vines to attempt a breakthrough and become an immortal themselves. Those that reach it first would be able to suppress the rest in the future just like on Zamuria Continent."
Right as he said it, even more Predominated Vines attempted a breakthrough, causing the number of lightning bolts attracted to the place to surpass a hundred. Of course, the number was only growing.
The commotion was so large that Krune felt the audience was too small. So, he brought in the three ladies using his subspace, causing them to stare in shock at the scene before them.
"What the hell did you do, Krune?" Feifei screamed in alarm. "The intensity of the tribulation lightning has increased. Too many would die a futile death at this rate."
"Hey, I'm not the culprit!" Krune raised his hands. "They did it on their own. We just finished planting them, to be honest."
"Trust me!" Krune screamed in despair, watching Feifei's doubtful look at him. "I didn't cause this problem."
