Chapter 879: Welcome to the World of the Strong (1/2)

”Hello there, my friend,” Krune said as he smiled, greeting the person that landed 10 meters before him.

”Friend…?” The man with a crown was perplexed for a bit before waving back with a light chuckle, responding with, ”Nice to meet you, pal.”

Krune smiled after that, feeling that there was no threat emanating from the other party. After all, the one that probably caused numerous coincidences to occur, which led him to chase after Krune, was Little Cally. Now that Little Cally had disappeared, the feeling of threat had also vanished.

Krune realized that the other party was purely interested in him, or to be more exact, his abilities. That was what he was able to sense until an ethereal lady charged towards him out of nowhere, brandishing a pair of knives as she closed in on him.

Krune readily took out his shields as he defended against the pair of knives, manipulating the shields with his Godly Energy. When compared to before, his Godly Energy now flowed smoothly, as if he was back in the lower realms.

Before, when he used Godly Energy, he had to will it to function. But now, the Godly Energy flowed through him and acted against all threats naturally. Krune didn't even have to exert a ton of effort. Everything was automatic.

Energies Cooperation Sub-law!

Back then, he had to activate this sub-law while using his Balance Laws. It came with a lot of restrictions, which meant he had to concentrate on it a lot. It was more or less why he was unable to use the Balance Laws' sub-laws for more than a couple of seconds. First of all, his comprehension of it was lacking, and second, he had to consume a lot of brainpower to activate it.

After all, the Balance Laws was an agglomeration of all laws. Activating it meant that he had to think of all the laws that function in it. He didn't have to actively think about them, but activating the Balance Laws' sub-laws meant that all the related information flowed through his mind. This put a bit of strain in his mind, preventing him from doing anything much other than this.

But now, Krune didn't have to do anything. After all, the Energies Cooperation Sub-law had now become a part of him. It was like one of his organs, similar to the heart that thumped by itself voluntarily without rest.

Every law that formed his Spiritual Incarnation had become something akin to an organ to him. Among them were multiple laws similar to the Energies Cooperation Sub-law, Elements Cooperation Sub-law, and most importantly, the Law Cooperation Sub-law.

They all worked together as a cohesive unit, forming a body, in other words, him, that functioned based on their work. Therefore, Krune didn't even have to actively control Godly Energy to use the shields. Godly Energy flowed naturally through him, manipulating the shields without much effort. All he had to do was think about where he had to move them next.

It was like he had automated most of the things he used to do manually. This wasn't the case for a normal cultivator with a Spiritual Incarnation since their bodies were a result of the laws they had comprehended. On top of that, it could only result in changes brought about by their respective collection of laws.

As for Krune, since he had only comprehended the Balance Law's first sub-law on a superficial level, that meant he had comprehended all the sub-laws in it at a superficial level as well. Therefore, all of them became a part of him while forming his Spiritual Incarnation.

In the future, when he comprehended each sub-law to a deeper degree, his power would just become greater.

Moreover, it wasn't just Godly Energy flowing through his body without worries. Even his Mental Energy saw no problems moving around. His Universe Foundation had changed, becoming a law that occupied a part of his body. It synchronized with the rest of the laws forming his body.

Therefore, any attacks he did were made using both Godly Energy and Mental Energy. Back then, he was fusing them to increase the power of the attacks he could unleash. Right now, though, that wasn't the case anymore.

Depending on the situation, his Mental Energy and Godly Energy would fuse at various ratios, giving rise to various energy types that could unleash a numerous amount of properties. When Krune wished to defend using the shields, the resulting energy flowing in his body changed its property to one that boosted the shields' defense to the maximum.

Krune didn't even need to think or change the inherent structure of his Godly Energy, Mental Energy, how they melded, or anything for that matter. Everything happened naturally, as if it was just him breathing.

Krune stared in shock as the lady with the knives attacked him nonstop but failed to even make a dent on his shields. It was shocking because the shockwaves from each attack caused dust to fly. Nevertheless, his current defense felt like tiny mountains covering every angle one could attack from.

Each of his shields seemed like they weighed hundreds of tons, not budging or even trembling under the powerful attacks of the lady. This was why he was confident that no one in and under the God Core Realm had the ability to inflict harm to him. His confidence wasn't baseless.

'Everything is all thanks to the Balance Laws. If I didn't think of them or allocated some time for them, my strength wouldn't have become this cohesive,' Krune thought to himself. Cohesive. This was the word he focused on. The laws in his body acted as one as it unleashed effects using the two forms of energy, giving rise to effects he never knew were possible.
