Having turned into a bird-type demon beast, one of the clones flew straight towards the end of the Zamuria Continent. As it approached closer and closer to its borders, through their shared thoughts, Krune realized that his earlier thoughts were wrong.
He thought the continents would at most be separated by a stream of water. After all, the entire God Realm was a massive stretch of land extending past trendously long distances, spanning countless light-years.
But now, as the clone approached the border, Krune was left at a loss for words. Spanning beyond the border of the continent was a chaotic mist forming a wall of swirling tornadoes that completely lined up along the border.
The sheer intensity of the wind was beyond what any cultivator below the Semi-God Realm could endure. On top of that, there weren't even any gaps that could allow one to proceed beyond it. Moreover, the wall of swirling tornadoes was sharp, not leaving any trailing winds behind that flowed into the continent.
The clone flapped its wings, hovering 10 ters before the swirling wall of tornadoes, occasionally spotting a couple of shadows move past. It was unknown as to what they were. Though, as it began to fly while trying to search for a gap to go through, out of nowhere, from within the wall of wind appeared a massive shadow.
Its whole body was formless, completely made up of shadows as its gaping maw clamped on the clone, shredding it apart, rendering it useless before proceeding to digest it. One of the six clones had already died.
In the Lawless Plains, the destroyed fragnt of Little Krune began to slowly take shape upon absorbing the dense Godly Energy in the area.
Another clone had also approached the border by this ti. But, in its area, the border was a stretch of mountains forming a range, with their height beyond what one could see. They were like a wall of earth blocking everything, preventing anyone from moving beyond.
This was the southernmost part of the Zamuria Continent. The clone had been making use of the Mind Splitting Technique to cultivate, basically absorbing Godly Energy while flying through the air. This way, the amount of Godly Energy it had was always at its peak. That's why it managed to cover such a massive distance so quickly.
The clone flew around in the air while making use of its ntal Energy Scan to scout the surroundings and inside the rock forming the mountain range. It tried to scale up the mountain, giving up halfway when it failed to see the tip even after traveling for two days.
For so reason, the walls seed to span till infinity based on what it saw. Even though Krune knew that was impossible since it should have finite limits, the limit seed beyond what the bird-type demon beast could traverse.
After all, the higher up it went, the lower the density of Godly Energy it could draw upon from the air. So, it made recovering energy much harder. But after a mont of thought, the clone flew higher and higher up, planning to see just how far it could proceed.
Another clone soon joined it before the two proceeded high up, intending to support one another as they went. As the two pulled in Godly Energy simultaneously, they used the sa technique allowing the suction force of Godly Energy to be beyond twice the amount they could pull in individually, alleviating their problems a little.
"There's a cave in this place," one of the clones muttered as it took on Krune's human form, landing on a rock protrusion. The other clone morphed into a bird-type demon beast that Krune and Cultivator had used to escape from the Predominated Vines.
As this form had the greatest evasive maneuverability in the air, it allowed it to escape from any danger. And, just as the two had expected, as if it had sensed them approaching, a demon beast drilled out from the cave and zood in on the clone resembling Krune's human form.
Without any hesitation, the human form clone raised its hand, sending a gust of wind that was also boosted by the laws of gravity. The force it unleashed caused the demon beast's approach to slow down to a crawl.
The demon beast was shaped like an earthworm, lacking any eyes while its body was covered by scales all over. It had a tough hide and spanned a length of 15 ters and a diater of a ter. It was a massive serpentine demon beast.
Moreover, it seed to have been in the demon beast form all its life and hadn't interacted with any other living thing, so its intelligence was the least among all the demon beasts Krune had encountered in the God Realm.
It was in the Nascent God Realm, the Ninth Stage at that. But, the two clones weren't flustered. Followed by a grunt, the human form clone unleashed its Land Incarnation, causing the Godly Energy in the area to converge into it.
Followed by a massive influx, possibly all the Godly Energy in the area, two Pseudo-Wisps were produced. As Krune had just consud one to cultivate while a clone had been killed just now, they could condense a couple of Pseudo-Wisps to take action.
The Pseudo Wisps were only at the Godly Fusion Realm and weren't sothing that could even affect the tide of battle in the place. But, that was in the case they were used normally.
As the human form Krune continued to generate wind that constricted its movent, the other clone used the laws of gravity to fully suppress the earthworm-type demon beast. Even though it retaliated, it seed it hadn't even fought any opponents all its life, for it was unable to even make use of its Godly Energy to unleash any attacks.
"Strange." The human form clone frowned as it muttered, "How the heck was it able to cultivate to such a level here then? The quality of Godly Energy here is way too inferior for even gifted geniuses to reach the Nascent God Realm before they die of natural death."
Simultaneously, the two clones looked at each other, beaming with a wide smile as they smirked simultaneously, saying, "Jackpot!"
Of course, they didn't take any action, solely focusing on constricting the earthworm-type demon beast, unwilling to kill it unnecessarily. They didn't want to kill it before understanding the whole situation. Moreover, if there existed more of it inside, or if they wished to make a path, this demon beast would prove to be useful.
So, that's why the two clones had created a Pseudo-Wisp each. The human form controlled its Pseudo-Wisp to gently touch the head of the bounded demon beast. Its hands then turned a shade of white as dense chillness emanated from it.
This caused a layer of ice to form on the demon beast's head. And, as ti passed, it could feel the effect, beginning to thrash around in an effort to escape. Unfortunately, it was tightly bound by the mixture of wind and gravity, unable to escape as it could sense the chillness pervade its body.
As the cause was a being in the Godly Fusion Realm, the seepage of the chillness was slow, too slow to even sting it normally. But now, it was unable to treat itself, so the seepage of the chill caused it to feel dread for the first ti in its unthreatened life.
At this ti, the other Pseudo-Wisp turned to resemble it as it coiled around the latter, gently unleashing warm energy that healed itself. One Pseudo-Wisp tried to freeze it while the other healed it.
But as the one that healed it looked similar to it, the demon beast lost all animosity towards it. As ti passed in such a fashion, it noticed it no longer felt cold in his head, turning around to see the enemy wasn't at the scene. Instead, there were only two demon beasts that resembled it, only a bit inferior in size.
And, both of them were unleashing that gentle energy that healed it. The earthworm-type demon beast sensed a feeling of kin from them as it was delighted to see them, playing around as the three demon beasts moved into the cave.
The Pseudo-Wisps dissipated naturally, returning the concentration of Godly Energy in the area back to normal as all traces of the Land Incarnation vanished. The two clones had accompanied the earthworm-type demon beast into its cave.
Even though they played around, it was primarily to not cause it to feel suspicious. Besides, the mont they entered, they thanked themselves for not killing it. For, inside the cave was a maze. Hundreds of tunnels spanned forth without end, moving roundabout as they sotis entered older tunnels or branched out into newer tunnels.
They seed to ignore the earthworm demon beast's handiwork to curb its boredom. The two clones didn't take any lead, playing around as they followed the demon beast through whatever path it took, coiling around so much they felt they were lost.
But thankfully, they were able to morize the route. It was thanks to leaving behind so traces of ntal Energy in the route they traversed in. This trail was subtle and couldn't be sensed by anyone other than soone who could wield ntal Energy.
A couple of days later, when they were getting tired, the earthworm-type demon beast took them through another tunnel, but one that was straight this ti. And, as they slithered through it for more than 20 kiloters, they reached a do.
The mont they entered it, the sa thought echoed in the minds of both. 'Jackpot.'
In the center of the do grew tiny herbs. And, these herbs seed to be what the demon beast had been feeding upon all its life. That had been the cause that made it reach its current cultivation.
By sensing through their ntal Energy Scan, they found out how there was a vein of Godly Energy trailing beneath the area the herbs grew upon. The roots of the herbs had taken root within the Godly Energy vine. With that, they grew to beco precious herbs.
After that, the attention of the two was drawn to the tunnel that traversed from the back of the do, seeming as if it would take them to the other side of the mountain range.
