Chapter 906: The Region Absorbs Godly Energy And Births Monstrosities (1/2)
The clone moving through the vacuum soon erected a barrier of Godly Energy around itself, defending against the Laws of Fire and Gravity. Through the shared thoughts, Krune figured out the laws in each sphere.
”Gravity, Fire, Earth, Force, Movement, Restraint, Light, and Sound.” Krune made sure that those laws were in those spheres, muttering in the end, ”There's quite a lot of them. Then again, only the Laws of Gravity and Fire are the most concentrated. The rest aren't as great.”
The sphere formed by the Law of Gravity was positioned in the center of all the spheres. Because of that, it was the biggest. It was then followed by the Law of Fire and Earth. Beyond that, the remaining law clusters weren't so pure. Unsurprisingly, they were tiny and, at times, interacted with the others.
With that, Krune was only interested in the laws of Fire, Gravity, and Earth. As for the rest, he didn't wish to take them since they served no practical use to him. Only as pure clusters would they complement his comprehension speed of the respective laws.
As the clone moved towards the center, its Godly Energy expenditure became massive as some of the radiation began to pierce through its defenses and damage its body. Thankfully, it could recover by expending some Godly Energy.
After all, the goal was to reach the spheres and grab them. If it was destroyed before that, then all his efforts would have been for naught. With that in mind, Krune wasn't bothered too much about the Godly Energy expenditure.
The clone soon arrived at the center as it fished out a storage ring. Having taken on his human form, it reached out towards the sphere of fire with its hand, having covered it with enough Godly Energy after activating the Laws of Fire and Ice. The ice protected the insides, while the fire formed the outermost layer, using the dissipation of heat to counter the radiation slamming onto it.
This way, it could resist the temperatures and prevent itself from collapsing. The hand with the ring soon arrived before the sphere of fire as it was activated, causing a formless activation of the laws of space.
The sphere of fire was wrapped around by the Laws of Space in an effort to drag it into the storage ring. This was the first time Krune felt so much resistance from an item. Usually, putting an object in a storage space and taking it out took only a single thought.
But now, it was as if he was physically carrying a heavy boulder, trying to stuff it through a narrow window. It wasn't fitting. No matter how much the clone activated the storage ring, the sphere of fire failed to budge.
All it did was tremble in place a couple of times before becoming still. The clone then focused on the tiny law spheres, trying to store them, only to find out that they behaved the same. They didn't budge from their spots at all.
The clone then focused on the sphere of gravity, realizing that it was the culprit that prevented it from storing the other spheres of law. After all, the Laws of Gravity could affect the Laws of Space. So, they were inter-connected.
The clone then tried to pull in the sphere of gravity, feeling even more difficulty in doing so. The Laws of Space in the storage ring were too inferior to affect it. Fortunately, Krune realized the issue immediately. All the storage rings he had were of inferior quality.
Most of them were those he had haphazardly forged without much experience in the God Realm. Therefore, they couldn't pull in objects with tremendous 'spatial weight' like the spheres of law clusters.
'There's only one place with enough laws of space,' Krune thought to himself as he gulped, feeling somewhat nervous thinking that he was going to use his subspace as an experiment. It was definitely bound to be incredibly risky, not to mention scary.
After all, all the Pseudo-Wisps were currently inside it. A single misstep would kill them all, leading to him becoming stranded in the rock, no longer able to escape. As long as the Godly Energy in the Pseudo-Wisps didn't escape from his subspace, he could still use them.
Then again, that didn't mean the risks weren't there. If the spheres of law clusters absorbed all the Godly Energy, then they would cause a fiery hell in his subspace. That would prevent him from making use of it until he figured out a way to salvage the situation.
Just when the clone was about to act on the sphere of gravity using the subspace, it stopped. Krune had backed out, unable to come up with a good plan. He didn't want to risk his life so soon. Besides, he had no reason to do so. After all, neither his life was threatened, nor was he pressed for time to grow stronger.
He was only here for the experience. Embarking on something that would definitely destroy his accumulation wasn't something he desired.
”I can return here whenever I please and retrieve them,” Krune muttered sometime later, followed by a sigh, ”After all, I only need to expend a Pseudo-Wisp's worth of Godly Energy to reach the center from the surface of the sea of lava.”
To be honest, it was a wise decision. Krune couldn't determine the extent of the damage he would have to suffer by taking in the spheres of law clusters. He had to pursue efficiency. After all, in order to improve, if he destroyed all his current accumulation, the backlash would send his progress backward.
