Chapter 1120: First Experiment with the Vine
"Now, there are 10 kilograms of metal with the Suppression Law," Krune said with reddened eyes, feeling mentally drained. It seemed repeating the acts of laying down a Land Incarnation took a toll on him severely, even though it was his clones that did it.
As all of them were extensions of himself, he was tremendously exhausted now. It was to such an extent his clones had retreated into his subspace and fell asleep. That's how he was still able to endure.
"This is good enough for a start." Zamura nodded, gently fusing all ten kilograms of the Suppression Law metal into the altar. He was incredibly careful, ensuring Krune's efforts didn't go to waste.
He used all his refining and forging abilities, spreading his Divine Sense carefully through the coral covering the entirety of the gigantic floating island. Once the Seamstress finished her task of merging the floating island cluster into one, Krune sent her back to the floating island with the gate to the outside world.
She still had a lot of work to be done there. As for the strength of the coral in the place, it was barely enough. After all, its goal was to prevent the Mashed Serpents from leaving the enclosure. As they behaved as the beacons for the Predominated Vines, as long as they didn't escape the place, the vines wouldn't try anything else.
Moreover, the Mashed Serpents only had cultivation bases in the Godly Fusion Realm. Hardly anyone managed to even reach the God Foundation Realm. It was due to the lifestyle they led, living off by eating the sediments produced by the Predominated Vines.
Thanks to the Suppression Law dominant in the place, it prevented their cultivation from advancing beyond the God Foundation Realm. Plus, the structure Seamstress created was enough to withstand attacks from an average Nascent God Realm cultivator.
With that, it was enough for them, as long as the Predominated Vines didn't try to bash it into pieces. After all, every Predominated Vine was at the Nascent God Realm.
Nevertheless, they had no other choice but to go with the current level of sturdiness. It was because even if the Seamstress spent any more time, the increase in sturdiness wouldn't make any difference. Moreover, all it would do would be to waste their Godly Energy further.
They had great ambitions. To sustain that, the Godly Energy collected by Krune wasn't enough. On top of that, the Godly Energy emitted by the Godly Vein fused into the sect wasn't much. After all, all the produced Godly Energy only circulated within the foundations of the sect, enriching it.
Since it took priority to make the sect sturdier, they didn't siphon any Godly Energy from it. Plus, since the cultivation chamber planned to make use of their third Godly Vine was yet to be finished, they couldn't use it.
If they haphazardly used the Godly Vein to cultivate and damaged it, then it would stop producing Godly Energy. After all, it was a delicate material. Zamuria was on the verge of breaking through any moment to the Semi-God Realm and invite tribulation lightning.
Hence, they were being careful about it. They also had other plans related to following her breakthrough. Unless all of the necessary things were constructed, Zamuria was putting off her breakthrough.
"Heuk!" Zamura grunted, feeling a mild ringing pain in his head as he manipulated the Suppression Law, a law that wasn't part of his Spiritual Incarnation and one he hadn't comprehended even a little.
Nevertheless, he didn't relent, pressing forth to manipulate it as he slowly dissolved the Suppression Law metal into the coral, spreading it throughout the coral forming the gigantic floating island. This way, the place would be more suitable for the Predominated Vines to propagate.
Krune was seated cross-legged right behind him, feeling like he was on the brink of death due to exhaustion. What he was doing was consuming his Godly Energy to activate the Suppression Law.
After comprehending it to the bare minimum, he was able to use the law. Right now, he was generating it, creating an environment where the effect from the Suppression Law existed. Even though the effect was only temporary, it allowed Zamura to spread the Suppression Law metal through the island better.
At opportune moments, some of the Suppression Law metal absorbed the suppression effect in the air, faintly increasing in strength. This was the reason Krune was releasing the suppression effect in the first place.
Zamura eventually completed fusing the Suppression Law metal, watching them be concentrated more within the altar. Soon, they were drawing out Godly Energy from the Godly Vein, unleashing the suppression effect into the air.
"Alright, it's done," he said, sighing in relief, collapsing to the place immediately. He then looked at Krune and told him, "Let's rest for some time. We won't be able to handle the Predominated Vines otherwise."
"Yeah, that would be better," Krune said in exhaustion, barely finishing his sentence before fainting.
The two of them only began to move after resting for a month because their minds were stretched thin from the various tasks they did. The moment they felt they were prepared enough, Krune activated the Pocket Ring, causing a Predominated Vine to fall on the ground.
Its roots were entangled around a large block of soil as Krune had uprooted them whole, soil included. The Predominated Vine looked a bit weak, having thinned up a bit after staying within the Pocket Ring for quite some time.
Even though it was a spatial ring where living beings could be stored, that didn't mean they could live comfortably without any food. Only thanks to their reserve of Godly Energy did they survive for so long.
The moment it fell on the ground, the Predominated Vine looked around in joy, feeling that its current environment was better than the Pocket Ring. After all, there were faint traces of the Suppression Law in the ground while the air was filled with the suppression effect.
The Godly Energy filled with suppression effect acted as a tonic for it as the Predominated Vine began to absorb them, slowly regaining its body mass. Not long after, its roots burrowed into the ground, adjusting the soil it brought with itself around the foot of its stem, creating a barely comfortable enough place.
Upon seeing that it was able to live at the place fairly better than their expectations, Krune and Zamura sighed in relief.
