Is that a Wisp?

The Predominated Vine quickly broke free of the layer of ice covering its body, flustered as its surroundings had changed. There was no longer the Suppression Law in place. Moreover, it was unable to see any more of its kind around it, failing to understand just what had happened.

Thankfully, it at least had the soil held by its roots. Otherwise, it would have been thrown into this place without anything to latch onto.

"Alright, that was a success." Krune grinned, sending out five clones. All of them possessed the same abilities as him, so they were able to perform a lot of things. Each clone attacked a Predominated Vine, yanking it out of the ground along with the soil it had latched onto.

While in the air, it was swiftly frozen by a layer of ice when Krune sent it into his Pocket Ring. As all six—five clones and Krune—had activated their Ocean Turbulence, the sounds of the ocean waves were incomparably loud, causing the Predominated Vines to faintly shudder.

They were unable to win against him in a contest of strength, having no other option but to be uprooted and stored in his Pocket Ring. As it was currently wartime between three continents, there was none in this place.

After all, despite its value, it was also risky to tread upon. After all, a single misstep was enough to send all the Predominated Vines attacking them. So, none of the armies from the other two continents dared use this path.

Rather, there was no need to do so since everything of value had already been concentrated within the Royal Capital of the Zamuria Continent. As the other two continents too had done the same, they concentrated attacks directly on their respective capital cities.

This allowed Krune to calmly and patiently pluck out one Predominated Vine after another like uprooting grass.

In the meantime, spanning a vast ocean that almost seemed endless, barely littered with tiny islands, there was a barren island atop which an energy-gathering formation had been built using Krune's Land Incarnation.

One after another, people flashed atop it, starting with Feifei. They looked around, witnessing the vast stretch of ocean, spanning as far as their eyes could see.

"This is a good place," Zamura muttered.

"To think such a place existed beyond Zamuria Continent," Zamuria muttered, turning around as she noticed a mountain range far away, shuddering for some reason as she looked in the direction. "What…the heck is that?"

"An abyss of prayers," Zamura said solemnly.

"An abyss of prayers?" Zamuria asked in shock. "What does that mean?"

"Well, that's the name Krune gave it anyway." Zamura said, continuing, "Anyone that entered there would eventually turn into a wish-granting machine for the indigenous populace within. Once targeted, even if you end up committing suicide, it would only reset the corruption to your mind. You'll start to be corrupted right after your revival."

"Either you become their wish-granting machine or revive endlessly for all eternity to escape the curse," Zamura finished his piece. "That's the type of place it is."

Suddenly, they noticed the dense Godly Energy in the place stir up as Krune appeared. He was just a clone that was created, possessing a cultivation base of First Stage Godly Fusion Realm.

"I can converse through this clone," Krune told them. "The harvest of the Predominated Vines is proceeding smoothly. I probably won't be able to bring in the Immortal Predominated Vines. But as for the rest, I'll try to bring in as much as I can."

"How much did you capture until now?" Zamura asked.

"Just a couple. But, once I get a handle of their abilities, I'll be able to capture them better," Krune replied, frowning a bit before saying, "Though, it feels like I cannot take too many of them. The Suppression Law at the place would prevent me from bringing in any Predominated Vines from the core region of the place. At most, I'll be able to bring from the outer region."

"How many would that result in?" Zamuria asked, wondering just how Krune was able to capture them so easily. If it was possible, her family would have stored them all in their private sub-realm. After all, the Predominated Vines were the only ones that produced a Predominated Fruit.

On top of that, using the Predominated Fruit was the easiest way to condense a Spiritual Incarnation. So, it was a strategic resource. However, the moment anyone tried to affect the Predominated Vines, the Suppression Law in the place would act upon them.

All the Predominated Vines would latch onto the person until nothing was left behind. Even a Primal God cannot completely escape from being affected by the place. So, she was unable to guess as to how Krune was able to do it.

"Around the tens of thousands," Krune answered. "If my cultivation reached the Nascent God Realm, I should be able to uproot the entirety of the outer region."

His words shocked Zamuria, for she knew just how impossible to think such a notion was. Then again, Krune had the Mental Energy to rely upon. Using it, he was able to prevent any other Predominated Vines from acting up while he pocketed them one after another.

Without Mental Energy to shield his actions and the targeted area, it would be impossible to uproot them.

'I see, so it isn't just Feifei that's special. Krune is even more ridiculous.' She sighed, glancing at Zamura once. 'Of course, he's also ridiculous. No wonder they became friends.'

"Pick a good location to set up our sect. I'll remain here since the cultivation of this clone is too weak," Krune said.

"Alright, we'll tell you once we scout through this place completely," Zamura said before pointing at the ocean. "I'll scout it completely. I have abilities to suit this. Can the rest of you scout through this place?"

"Sure!" Feifei, Zamuria, and the Seamstress replied in unison before they used their respective abilities to roam and scout the surroundings.

"What about me?" Teng Zakutra asked, feeling left out from the start.

"Stay here and cultivate. At present, you're too weak. Once you reach the God Foundation Realm and obtain a Spiritual Incarnation, only then would you truly be able to contribute." Zamura jumped into the ocean water, leaving behind a statement. "The density of the Godly Energy here is high. So, cultivate first."

"If only my energy-gathering formation encompassed a larger area instead of this tiny island." Krune sighed as he muttered, "The quantity and quality of energy we could have accumulated within these past four decades would have been a stellar sum."

"In any case, it's still pretty good." He nodded, gazing at Teng Zakutra, saying, "I'll be guiding you from now onwards. Cultivate like there's no tomorrow."
