Is that a Wisp? Chapter 1284 – Returning To The Mountain Sect

“Just what the hell is happening here?” A cultivator roared in anger upon seeing that a secret location of treasure that he had been aiming at for the past three days had vanished all of a sudden. 

Having lost his treasure, he was angry. After all, his hard work had been stolen. 

“I have an idea.” Taking the chance, Kirena Wohat made an entry, smiling as she said to the cultivator, “The culprits are two people, Sterlena and Krune. They’re the ones pillaging our treasures from everywhere.”

“…” The cultivator silently stared at her, unwilling to believe her.

Snorting at his actions, she turned around, walking away as she said, “If you don’t believe me, ask anyone else you come across. Everyone would tell you the same. A lot of treasures have been plundered by them recently that quite a lot of people have been searching for them.”

“I see.” After thinking for a moment, the cultivator rushed in a certain direction. 

A couple of minutes after that, an eight-year-old girl wearing a cropped dress appeared, sporting a frown on her face as she muttered, “What the heck is this woman planning now?”

She then kicked a random rock. “Well, not that it matters.” 

Of course, she was Krune’s clone, having been hiding there all along. She was experimenting to see if Kirena was able to detect her presence when she was cloaked by Mental Energy. 

‘Her detection ability is pretty fearsome. It made me expend my entire reserve of Godly Energy within a minute.’ She then smiled as she muttered to herself, “But, this only means my Mental Energy shield works even against an ex-Primal God as long as I could handle the energy expenditure.”

She then hummed a tune and began to walk towards another location. If she used the Wind element, then others might attack her, having seen other thieves use the same. 

Then again, it wasn’t like she didn’t have an option, casually amplifying her movements using the Laws of Earth, detecting the next location where the concentration of a respective law spiked. That would be a special region with treasures. 

Thankfully for Krune and Sterlena, they didn’t come across the ex-God after the Blank Law Core incident, allowing them to roam as they pleased. However, a couple of times, an ex-Primal God attacked Krune. 

Then again, Sterlena stepped in to thrash them into submission. She wasn’t called the strongest Primal God once for no reason. Only cultivators like the ex-God were her opponents. 

So, for an entire year, they roamed through the infant supercontinent as much as they could, storing enough treasures to fill the subspace to the brim. After that, they decided to return to the Mountain Sect. 

But, Krune had still left some clones behind to continue with their resource gathering process. This was the plan until the infant supercontinent finished forming and became open to everyone in the God Realm.

A massive war would erupt by then as the powerhouses would contest for the real treasures that only those at the Primal God Realm and above would be able to touch and vie for. Those present here weren’t able to obtain such treasures. 

Though, Krune had already obtained the Godly Inhibition Tower as an ability. This was even better than the Godly Inhibition Tower that Brenker had. After all, storing that was pretty hard, not to mention carrying it with him. 

He would only be able to do that when the infant supercontinent finished forming. And at that time, he would have to face the onslaught from Primal Gods. So, it was a pretty worrying situation for him. 

…

A clone formed in the Lawless Plains of Zamuria Continent before using the teleportation formation there to teleport into the Mountain Sect, turning into the figure of the eight-year-old girl. 

As she entered, the defensive formation of the Mountain Sect recognized her as Krune, allowing her entry. She then directly headed towards the main hall of the sect, noticing that Zamura was seated there. 

Upon seeing him, she shuddered for a moment in surprise as she thought to herself, ‘He’s become terrifying even more now.’

“Krune?” Zamura asked in surprise. “Did something happen?”

“I’m planning to return, that’s all. So, you don’t need to protect my clones,” she said before waiting patiently for a minute, soon condensing a portal as Krune and Sterlena exited it. 

Pointing at Sterlena, Krune introduced her, “This is Sterlena, my big sister.”

“You have a sister?” Zamura acted surprised for a completely different issue, pissing him off.

“Of course, I have one!” Krune cursed in response. 

“Well… that’s debatable, I guess.” Zamura turned his head, whistling away. 

‘Debatable my ass. What’s debatable in this?’ He grumbled internally before saying, “Anyway, sis is pretty much the strongest even now.”

“Hoh, can we fight?” Zamura asked, itching for action. “I’ve created a pretty powerful training ground where we can fight to our heart’s content.”

“Not now.” Sterlena shook her head before nudging Krune. 

Upon seeing the serious atmosphere between them, Zamura turned serious as well, asking, “What’s the issue?”

“Feifei’s enemies. The Mist Sect would be attacking us soon,” Krune said, giving a short recount to what he had found out in the infant supercontinent. 

“First of all, you’ve managed to cure your race’s defect, right?” Zamura asked. 

“Yep.” Krune nodded. “I probably wouldn’t be having any other problems for a long time.”

“See Gegrafikan after this. It seems he has a lot to talk to you,” Zamura said in response.

“Where’s Feifei?” he asked next, having observed along the way that the sect seemed emptier than when he had left it. “What happened here?”

“Huh? Oh, nothing much.” Zamura laughed. “I’ve just organized a sect competition. So, most of them are within our Sub-Realm right now to see the competition. The ones remaining here are just our forces to defend the sect if in the case of an emergency.”

He then groaned, “I wanted to see the competition as well, but the responsibility for defending the sect was pushed onto me. My mom and your wife are happily cultivating every day while I’m left with all the grunt work.”

“Well… good luck with that!” Krune said, intending to leave when Zamura grabbed hold of him like a predator looking at prey. 

“How many clones can you create now?” Zamura asked. 

“1000,” Krune replied, eyes twitching as he backed away instinctively. 

“Perfect!”

“I’m not doing it…”
