Chapter 1170: Taken Captive

The Cloud Whale flew through the void, traveling past giant clusters as he slowed down, watching the scenes transpire around him.

He wasn't gawking at the visual spectacle but was using this chance to comprehend the various laws at a faster pace. After all, quite a lot of the laws around the edges of the giant clusters had yet to fuse into the structures within.

So, as long as he focused on them, he would be able to comprehend the respective laws at a faster pace. Comprehending them here was superior even to comprehending the laws dominant in the danger zones.

After all, he would even be able to interact with them here without fear of any interruption or pollution from cultivators.

Among the laws that he saw in one of the giant clusters, Krune spotted some laws that he hadn't witnessed before. They were the laws that were part of his Spiritual Incarnation but weren't even in his knowledge.

So, he now planned to comprehend them and increase the potency of his Spiritual Incarnation. The stronger the comprehension of all the laws forming his Spiritual Incarnation, the stronger he would become.

That's why all those ex-Primal God Realm cultivators were so strong. It was because their comprehension of the laws forming their Spiritual Incarnations had reached the peak or was close to it.

There were already able to erupt with the strongest power someone at the Nascent God Realm was able to attain.

He was an exception thanks to also possessing body and soul cultivation. If not for that, Krune wouldn't have been able to even lift a finger before such powerhouses.

After all, most of the cultivators that dared to fight against such beings died from one hit. As for the rest, they needed a couple more hits to be killed.

Having already encountered two such powerhouses, Krune was pressed for the need of strength. Only then would he become stronger. And to attain that, comprehending lots of laws would hasten that growth.

After all, the laws forming his Spiritual Incarnation were innumerous. So, as long as he comprehended all of them to a basic level, he would become a lot stronger than his current self.

The greater the number of laws forming a Spiritual Incarnation, the stronger the resultant Spiritual Incarnation. Moreover, it would also become more complex and sturdier, causing it to resist attacks trying to destabilize it greater than others.

If not for the fact that he didn't even know about the existence of most of the laws forming his Spiritual Incarnation, most of the attacks that destabilized his Spiritual Incarnation before wouldn't have affected him that much.

At present, this was a weakness. Thinking optimistically, that also meant that he had a large room for growth.

Krune passed the days meditating, fully applying the Divine Sense Laws to capture the laws faster, comprehending them at a greater speed, fully realizing once again how powerful the Divine Sense Laws were.

Thanks to the two bags of God Stones he had grabbed, Krune had enough energy to sustain himself. It allowed him to last for three whole years in the void before he expended them all.

Left with no other choice, he began to move forward, intending to head towards a tiny continent or the sort to rest and recover a bit. After all, he was now beginning to consume the God Stones stored in the Triple Beast Ring.

Even though he had only consumed one God Stone, Krune was still worried. After all, this was his emergency reserve.

He didn't want to waste them unless the situation was urgent. Though, he had already departed when there was only a small pile of God Stones left among the pile. Unfortunately, no matter how long he traveled, he was unable to find any place to rest.

And as time passed, he burned through the pile, left with no other choice but to start using the reserve in the Triple Beast Ring.

"There's something there!" he suddenly shouted in excitement as the Cloud Whale accelerated a bit, charging towards a small dot that he saw far away.

He soon closed in on them, shocked upon seeing a massive ship sailing through the void. It was apparent that this ship was built in the infant supercontinent since it couldn't have been brought in from the outside without the aid of spatial rings that didn't work in the place.

The ship spanned twenty stories in height, possessing countless majestic towers and overarching bridges that spanned from one to another, connecting them in the air to create a wondrous architecture.

With a single glance, Krune was surprised, observing that the ship wasn't actually using any Godly Energy to row through the void. Instead, it had cast a domain of Divine Sense, but one that wasn't spherical in radius.

This domain stretched like an amoeba, constantly morphing shapes as it grabbed hold of any whiffs of Godly Energy in the void before using it to fuel its operations. The principle behind its operation was the same as his Godly Cup.

However, its range was tremendous. As a blacksmith, even he was unable to understand just how this was possible. The ship's range of Divine Sense seemed to span hundreds of kilometers, not to mention the amoeba-like structure with which it constantly varied with time.

It was a wondrous creation.

Though, the same could not be said for the people in it that jumped out the moment they noticed Krune, brimming with killing intent as they shouted, "Another straggler! Capture him!"

Even though Krune was alarmed, his mind whirred in thought, calculating the benefits and losses. He realized that as he was already in the range of the ship's Divine Sense, it would be hard for him to break out.

He would be wasting too much Godly Energy in such a manner. And, without any direction to proceed towards, all he would do was waste his Godly Energy and possibly be trapped in the void forever.

Then again, the second option was easier as Krune instantly converted all the energy in his body into Mental Energy. This way, none of them would be able to sense his energy reserves. And similarly, he used a technique to mask his Triple Beast Ring, preventing anyone from noticing it.

He then struggled a little bit, clearly displaying that he wished to escape but had already expended all his Godly Energy. Without much suspense, he was captured within a minute, bound by a special pair of chains, and dragged into the ship.
