Is that a Wisp?

"Let's head there immediately," Sterlena said, intending to move when Krune stopped her, pointing at the mountain in confusion…

"Why haven't they scaled up the mountain yet?"

"Naturally, there's a natural formation around such places," Sterlena replied as if it was a matter of fact. "Plus, there would be many obstacles along the way before we can manage to arrive there. So, we'll lose our advantage if we're late. We might take a lot of time."

"Then..." Krune smiled, gazing around to see that most of the cultivators were rushing towards the mountain. "I'll take care of that. Let's continue to hunt for the Law Deity Cores here."

Saying so, he let out thirty clones from his subspace, causing them to take on different appearances. This way, they would seem different. On top of that, all of them had cultivation bases at the Ninth Stage of the Nascent God Realm.

So, they were pretty strong. To ensure the success of the mission, Krune didn't waste any time with them, sending them towards the mountain, whispering to Sterlena, "If any one of them manages to reach the destination, we'll swap places with them."

"Alright, that's a better choice." She nodded. After all, there were still plenty of Law Deity Cores around them, including the ones at the Semi-God Realm.

Most of the higher realm Law Deity Cores were still left as is, for most didn't wish to take the risk for the time being.

After all, their cultivation was only at the peak of the Nascent God Realm. Even for strong cultivators like them, killing a Law Deity in the God Trial Realm would consume a lot of effort, leading to them revealing their cards.

On top of that, they would also become prone to ambushes. So, not many took the risk to fight against such beings.

The ones left behind were those at the Nascent God Realm that wasn't some immortal that had committed suicide to revive at this stage. They didn't have the confidence of reaping the rewards from the mountain, not when so many tough opponents were contesting for the same.

After all, they were struggling to even kill a Law Deity Core, barely managing to do so before requiring a lot of time to heal and recover.

"Let's first obtain all Law Deity Cores at the Semi-God Realm. Even if they are excess, we can give them to the sect members," Sterlena said before her figure vanished, attacking the various Law Deities.

Of course, Krune did the same, getting more and more accustomed to dealing with them. They weren't sentient, only acting based on the law that formed them. So, they only had a fixed attack pattern.

After fighting them for some time, he understood their patterns, casually aiming through their gaps as he killed them faster. Even if they had defensive means on par with Semi-God Realm cultivators, as they were like sitting ducks before him, they fell prey one after another.

…

"Hmm..." An eight-year-old girl frowned, skipping from one location to another as she observed everything, cautiously observing some cultivators brandishing attacks into a natural barrier. Only after entering it would one be able to scale up the mountain.

Despite the attacks from countless ex-immortals, the natural barrier held up. From time to time, ripples formed on it, allowing the auras of the Blank Law Cores to waft out, causing the eyes of the cultivators to turn red every time.

After all, the aura they unleashed determined the realm of their effect. Meaning, if they were consumed, the comprehension of the respective law would straight up shoot towards the respective realm's worth.

For a Fire Deity Core at the Semi-God Realm, one needed to consume at least ten before their comprehension reached the Semi-God Realm. This was in the case they didn't have any comprehension of the Law of Fire before.

No matter what, one Fire Deity Core at the Semi-God Realm wasn't enough to comprehend the Law of Fire to the Semi-God Realm.

However, a Blank Law Core was different. Suppose one fed a fire-attributed attack into a Blank Law Core that gave out an aura of the Semi-God Realm, then once it turned into a Fire Law Core, consuming it would cause the cultivator's comprehension of the Law of Fire to straight-up shoot towards the Semi-God Realm.

Just one was enough. That was why everyone was red-eyed. After all, among the 12 Blank Law Cores, the aura they exhibited varied.

Eight at the Semi-God Realm, three at the God Trial Realm, and one at the Elementary God Realm. This was the reason everyone didn't even bother to hunt the Law Deity Cores anymore.

As ex-immortals, they might possess mysterious abilities using rare laws that only existed in discrete locations on the God Realm. So, comprehending them was difficult, if not impossible, without inspiration to draw from nature.

After all, only by using their Divine Sense to look into the complexity of a particular law in nature where it was abundant would one's comprehension increase.

And now, with the Blank Law Cores, they could be upgraded to terrifying levels, instantly making their trump cards into something frightening.

As everyone attacked in a frenzy, the eight-year-old girl threw out fireballs from time to time as she mixed herself among the crowd, acting weak.

She was one of the thirty clones Krune had dispatched, having taken on such a form to ensure people would gloss over her existence.

After the cultivators rained down attacks nonstop on the barrier for almost a month, it began to crack, soon creating a crack wide enough for people to squeeze through.

Using her small stature, the eight-year-old girl rushed through it like a fish, soon entering the place. Immediately, the ground trembled as ethereal giants manifested before them, emanating suffocating auras.

Without any delays, they attacked the people.

"What?" A cultivator had just managed to squeeze through the entrance when the attack slammed into him, alarming him when he realized his Godly Energy had failed to circulate anymore. An instant later, his meridians ruptured, causing him to cough up blood and collapse to the ground.

Immediately after, for some reason, his Spiritual Incarnation deactivated, preventing him from healing himself.

The ethereal giant grabbed hold of him and clenched its fists, causing a rain of blood to spew out.

Mental Energy!

The eight-year-old girl layered her body with Mental Energy, preventing people from recognizing her.. Then, using the peak of her physique, she flickered around, evading the ethereal creatures that were targeting others around her.
