Chapter 1445: Finally, Finding the Key
Following that was a short... burp.
"What? This is free resources, you know?" Wally said. "This spark is full of resources at the level of the God Realm. You can use it to create weapons suitable to be wielded by Gods. And it's free, from our enemy even."
"Only a refined, once-in-a-lifetime idiot would miss such an opportunity," Wally added.
Krune raised his hand after that. "Old man, I didn't even say anything."
"You didn't say anything, but you conveyed everything already." Wally snorted, saying upon gazing at Krune's confused look. "Don't you know that we wisps can share information telepathically?"
"Can we really?" Krune asked in surprise.
"Wake up to reality, brat!" Wally smacked his head. "Did you see any wisp use it until now?"
'This old freak's just messing with me at this point,' Krune retorted suddenly, acting like he suddenly remembered something shocking, pointing at Wally's golden Wisp Core. "Ah! I remember something. Mr. Second Most Handsome here hit his limit at the Second Stage of the God Foundation Realm."
"So many wives, so many impurities! Of course, it's all thanks to telepathy!" Krune smiled smugly, rubbing his hands as he gleefully stared down Wally's golden Wisp Core.
"Brat, that's called being popular!" Wally snorted in response. "Only the most handsome wisp has the privilege to accumulate so many impurities at the tender stage of God Foundation."
"Besides!" He glared at Krune, continuing, "Don't talk like you are better than me. No, you're ten times worse. If this grandfather didn't manipulate heaven's will and alter your fate, Feifei would never have fallen for a zero IQ wisp like you."
"Hey, that's being racist towards wisps," Krune protested.
"I'm the ancestor god of the wisps!" Wally retorted.
"Don't you have low EQ yourself?" Krune said, indignant.
"Yeah, but I have the most handsome face," Wally stated smugly. "I never had to lift a finger."
"..." Krune grumbled, glaring at Wally's golden Wisp Core.
"By the way, I noticed that you've been eyeing my Wisp Core from the start..." Wally spoke, smiling all of a sudden. "Are you envious?"
'Dammit yeah! But I won't tell him!' Krune thought, shrugging casually, "Nah, I just thought you have a horrible color sense."
"Er... we're in the most important location of the enemy territory, and you decided this was the right time to do a comedy sketch?" Gegrafikan said in exasperation, glaring at Sterlena. "As their senior, shouldn't you have..."
He then noticed Sterlena silently admiring their banter like a grandma watching her grandchildren play in the mud for the first time.
'This woman has lost it since long ago.' Feeling a headache, Gegrafikan took in deep breaths, calming himself down. Of course, he, Krune, and Sterlena were within Wally's ethereal form. So, they couldn't do anything rash, for that might damage the seal protecting them.
"Jokes aside," Wally turned serious after that. "We need to wait until an opening shows up in the core."
"We'll have to enter it?" Gegrafikan asked.
"Yeah, that's what it seems like," Wally said. "Don't worry, the sphere is also made of the Space Laws. So, the inside must be as massive as a Sub-Realm at least."
Wally slowly approached the Mong Realm Core closer and closer, devouring any sparks of resources ejected out of the core, soon touching the surface. Countless laws were twisting and turning like maggots here.
Actually, the Law of Space had surfaced right at the location Wally had touched. This was what he had been waiting for all along. And since waiting in silence was boring, he argued with Krune to pass the time.
The moment he touched the Law of Space, his figure vanished, appearing within what seemed to be an endless void.
"This is...bigger than a Sub-Realm," Krune muttered in astonishment at the sheer size of the place, one that was devoid of anything of substance.
"Wait, look at there." Sterlena trailed after a scent of energy, pointing in a certain direction at a tiny twinkling gem-like structure.
Key!
"That's not our key, though," Krune said, noticing his Soul Needle pointing in a different direction.
"But, it's still a key. We can steal it and use it as a substitute or trade it with the other realms for equivalent valuables," Sterlena spoke.
"Can we... convert this key into our realm's?" Gegrafikan wondered, intending to approach it when Wally stopped him.
"There are traps throughout this place," Wally told them. "So, just remain within me for the time being. Only that's safe."
"Besides," he continued. "There's a good chance the Mong Realm Spirit would notice our infiltration the moment we touch any of the keys. So, we need to find our key first."
"Why are you waiting then?" Krune pointed in the same direction as the Soul Needle. "Go, my transport. Bring us to the destination."
'This brat is talking too much.' Wally was moderately pissed as he snapped back, "Brat, once we return to the Kun Realm, I'll whoop your ass and paint your sect gates using it."
"You can try, old man." Krune mocked openly. "I'm within your body. How can you attack me now? And it'll be a lot of time before we return."
Ignoring a certain chirpy wisp that acted like it was on a sightseeing trip, Wally continued to move in the direction pointed by the Soul Needle.
Of course, he was this free because, first of all, he trusted Wally's strength.
After all, it could be said that Wally was a legendary figure in the Kun Realm. So, he wouldn't mess up during such a major task. Besides, the fact that he had the time to banter with him meant that the task was proceeding without any hiccups.
This was pretty rare. Of course, that was only due to the ongoing war between the Mong Realm and the rest of the Greater Universe.
So, the Mong Realm Spirit's attention was focused on it. After all, it had to support the God King the moment he decided to activate his powers as a champion.
"We're here," Wally muttered as they arrived before a strange item that caused their hearts to hump in increasing vigor, exhibiting unbridled excitement and relief.
Thump! Thump!
