Is that a Wisp?
chapter-1175

"It seems you're planning to use a Law Pool to cure the defects in your core," Sterlena could not help but say, easily determining Krune's reason for visiting the infant supercontinent.

"Yeah," Krune nodded as he replied. "Otherwise, it'll be impossible for me to even reach the Nascent God Realm."

"Had you immersed yourself in the Law Pools of a regular continent, your defects wouldn't have been cured completely. But since you're about to use the Law Pools in the infant supercontinent, you won't face any problems until you reach the Primal God Realm," she told him.

Smiling, she continued, "On top of that, once you cure the defects, you would be no different to a True Spirit in probably everything."

"Is that so? Then would I no longer be a wisp?" Krune asked in surprise.

"You'll still be a wisp. After all, a True Spirit doesn't face the wrath of the heavens during breakthrough. As for you, you'll definitely face them, even more so than the regular Wisps since you would be no different to a True Spirit." She laughed. "The heavens wouldn't like a defect imitating its favored daughter."

"…" Krune stared at Sterlena, scowling as he shuddered. "Damn it."

"Also, there's the Calamity Laws to worry about." Sterlena sighed all of a sudden. "It's capable of increasing the strength of the tribulation lightning. So, you'll have to become so strong that you're able to kill cultivators a realm above you when you are an immortal. Otherwise, you'll die from the tribulations."

Krune frowned after hearing that.

Considering his current strength, even if he were at the Godly Fusion Realm, he had the confidence of fighting against Nascent God Realm cultivators. After all, the difference between the different cultivation stages of the base realms wasn't that wide.

But, from the Semi-God Realm onwards, even a minor realm caused a vast difference in strength, not to mention a major realm. With his current strength, he was confident of killing a Semi-God Realm cultivator.

At the peak of the Nascent God Realm, he had the confidence of going against early-stage God Trial Realm cultivators. At the Semi-God Realm, he would be able to kill God Trial Realm cultivators.

At the God Trial Realm, he may or may not be able to kill Elementary God Realm cultivators. The higher up he progressed in cultivation, the greater the difference between each stage.

The advantage he possessed would continue to reduce. This was unless he comprehended laws all the way to the Primal God Realm before attempting the breakthroughs.

However, comprehending the laws as a Nascent God was at least ten times slower than doing the same as a Semi-God Realm cultivator.

With that being said, Krune would be wasting a lot of time in this case. He didn't wish to do that.

In the second case, he'll have to constantly gather stronger abilities in an effort to become as strong as possible. Only through this method would he be able to survive the tribulations.

Upon reaching this line of thought, Krune shrugged, saying, "Well, I'll deal with them at that time."

"…" Upon seeing Krune shrug off such a serious matter so nonchalantly, her eyebrows twitched as she could not help but say, "You know… I feel like I can understand why the Calamity Laws have targeted you."

"You're pretty annoying."

"They say that's one of my charms." Krune winked once before condensing his Cloud Whale, asking, "Wanna hitch a ride?"

"I'll pass. I have a mode of transport that's better," Sterlena quickly replied, waving her hand once before emitting a subtle Godly Energy fluctuation.

Nothing happened after that as she continued to fly across the void. Slowly, dust began to gather under her feet from afar as if attracted by her.

Within an hour, it condensed into a boat which she calmly sat on. The boat then unleashed that amoeba-like Divine Sense once again, absorbing the trace levels of Godly Energy from the surroundings to power itself.

After some time passed, Krune noticed her actions, deactivating his Cloud Whale as he stealthily climbed over her boat.

Her eyelids twitched at his shameless manner but didn't say anything, calmly closing her eyes as she meditated.

Then, upon seeing Krune take out the Godly Cup and place it near him, she lost her patience. "Hey..."

"Sorry…" Krune laughed wryly, retracting the Godly Cup. After all, the moment he brought out the Godly Cup, the boat slowed down to a halt. It was because the Godly Cup began to absorb all the Godly Energy it siphoned from afar.

To have a vast range, it had been stretched thin. So, it was pretty weak. That's why the Godly Cup was able to pry Godly Energy from it easily.

Since they were pretty much from the same race—almost—and had suffered under the machinations of the same annoying fella—little Cally, they had established a type of camaraderie between themselves.

After some time, Krune gazed at the back of Sterlena, grinning as he said all of a sudden, "Big sis~"

"Ugh!" Sterlena shuddered at the fawning voice as she turned around, eyes twitching as veins popped on her forehead. "What?"

"Gimme some Godly Stones." Krune extended his hands, putting on a pitiful expression. "I'm hungry."

"Here." She dumped a pile of God Stones onto Krune, perfectly burying him under it, turning around as she grumbled.

Even though she seemed like she was completely annoyed, there was a small smile on her face. After all, for one that had lost everyone, Krune was something like kin. At least, that was how she looked at him.

First of all, he was a wisp, cut off from the same cloth as her. Secondly, he was her successor—to be the one tortured by the Calamity Laws. And third, she was assured of the fact that there weren't any other True Spirits remaining in the God Realm.

True Spirits were incredibly rare in the first place. Even in her long life, she had only met three of them. And during her breakthrough to the God Realm, her failure and the intervention of the Calamity Laws pretty much implicated the remaining True Spirits on the God Realm, causing their deaths.

If not for that, there should have still been some True Spirits left on the God Realm and not become one of the legends, only known about but never encountered.

In short, Krune was the closest to her that she had encountered upon returning to the God Realm.
