Chapter 1280: They've Asked For It
"What... are you talking about?" The old man shuddered, turning around to gaze at Krune.
Suddenly, one of the nerves on Krune's face exploded, spilling out blood with enough force. The old man was sent flying, coughing out blood in response.
He tried to heal himself but discovered that his Spiritual Incarnation was unable to do so. With his Godly Energy suppressed, he was unable to use the Divine Sense from his Spiritual Incarnation, turning weak immediately.
Only the passive strengthening of his body due to the various laws he had were what protected him. But against a raging Krune that had the body cultivation to use, it wasn't enough.
"Feifei," Krune responded, slowly uttering one word after another. "Are you referring to the Golden Gate Sect's Feifei?"
"What are you planning to do if we're aiming for her?" The other man that wielded poison snorted, taking out a thin needle from his sleeve that he threw at Krune. It was a poisoned needle, one that he carried with him always, intending to ambush his enemies with that.
It was made from a mysterious material that was undetectable to Divine Sense and was capable of phasing through objects, directly targeting the bodies of those he attacked. This was his trump card, one that allowed him to kill countless powerful cultivators.
After all, every cultivator relied on their Divine Sense and powerful treasures to defend against attacks. However, this needle was capable of phasing through them.
Plus, the poison within it was so strong that even those that the Elementary God Realm would be affected. Sometimes, they would even die, depending on the situation. As Divine Sense didn't work, he couldn't store it in a storage ring and had to carry it on hand.
Unfortunately for him, as the needle flew towards Krune, the Calamity Laws warned him. Moreover, it moved like a snail in his perspective as he calmly walked towards its side, probed it with Divine Sense before proceeding to pick it up using Mental Energy.
He then stored it within a storage ring and plunged his hand into the man's chest, crushing his heart. All of this happened before the needle moved a meter away from the man's hand.
Krune then condensed a sphere of Mental Energy and plunged it into the man's mind before pulling it out, collecting it. He then did the same to the old man, killing him as well before retracting the Godly Inhibition Tower.
He then used his Divine Sense to target the bodies of the two, scouring through the laws forming their Spiritual Incarnation as the means before discovering their countless Land Incarnations.
With a snap of his finger, he destroyed them all, ensuring they would never reincarnate. Sterlena had already taught him the best method to destroy the Spiritual Incarnations of others.
Done with everything, he flicked his hand, burning their bodies until not even dust remained behind. The moment he unleashed his Godly Inhibition Tower, the Land Incarnations they had unleashed in the place was destroyed as well.
"The Feifei they talked about..." Sterlena arrived next to him, watching Krune stare into the two spheres he had collected.
Using his Mental Energy, he probed through the memories of the two, getting a gist of things, nodding with an expression of anger. "Indeed, they are."
After a couple of seconds, he took in a deep breath, relaxing himself, healing his face, saying, "Sorry, I got too worked up. I was already prepared to face her enemies. But hearing about them speak of targeting her, I just lost it."
"Are there more of them here?" she asked next.
"Indeed. One of them is an ex-Primal God," Krune nodded as he replied.
"Then, why don't you leave those previously above the God Trial Realm to me?" She smirked. "Let's annihilate them right now. I don't like looking at your angry expression."
"I know where they are," Krune said as he condensed the Cloud Whale around the both of them before taking flight.
The Cloud Whale accelerated soon after, flying in a particular direction. Through the memories of the old man and the man with the poison, Krune had figured out where they were stationed right now.
They weren't just waiting. But instead, they remained behind to ambush the Golden Gate Sect members that had entered the infant supercontinent to strengthen themselves and fight their enemies.
One of them—the three-headed bull—that had valuable information had escaped, so two of the enemies chased after him.
Of course, whether it was the Golden Gate Sect, or their enemy, the Mist Sect, Krune didn't plan to leave either of them alive.
After all, the three-headed bull was from the Golden Gate Sect, but he readily leaked Feifei's location. Moreover, it was a fact that the Golden Gate Sect were the ones that had annihilated the Mist Sect in the past.
Plus, Feifei had only been a member of them for a few years.
But, to involve her in their fight?
The Golden Gate Sect had someone called the Divination Immortal that was able to divine Feifei's location. That meant even if the Mist Sect didn't know of her location, the Golden Gate Sect survivors would arrive at the Mountain Sect to look for her.
And obviously, the Mist Sect would follow after them, only endangering Feifei.
"We're destroying both sides," Krune spoke.
"Sure." Sterlena didn't even bat an eye at the claim. In the past, she had cooked up and eaten the bodies of both humans and demon beasts alike. After all, countless cultivators had treated wisps as a cultivation tool.
Naturally, True Spirits were dubbed as superior versions of the same. So, if someone that wasn't a wisp or a True Spirit got on her nerves, she cooked them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, whatever the time of the day was.
Having lost her entire race, after so long, she encountered a wisp, one that was really adorable in her eyes. And to see him expressing such rage, she didn't like it.
'Wisps are natural-born silly creatures. Such hatred and anger aren't part of their race's code,' she thought, firming her mind as her eyes glinted.. 'I'll kill them all before Krune has a chance to make a move.'
