Is that a Wisp?

"I'll say it now!" Having sent a God Trial Realm cultivator flying, Krune shouted, "I'll only kill you normally. So, you'll be able to revive without any trouble."

"After all, I'll be lonely without enough punching bags." He grinned malevolently soon after, displaying an attitude akin to a battle maniac. Of course, it was all an act. He wasn't a battle maniac at all.

This was only done to garner the attention of his opponents. After all, as long as he defeated his opponent, he would be awarded by the Sub-Realm. As long as he got on their nerves, even after getting killed, they would revive in a hurry and return for revenge.

This would create a beneficial cycle of rewards as he killed them continuously.

"Hmph! Take my sword!" A God Trial Realm cultivator snorted and condensed a sword beam that was condensed using a multitude of laws, going all-out from the start. The sword beam's length continued to increase as it made a mountain-length arc and slammed into him.

Krune condensed a thick layer of ice to defend against the attack, grunting in response as he was sent flying away for a hundred meters.

Heavy!

That was the thought that resounded in the God Trial Realm cultivator's mind, staring at Krune as if he were a monster. A normal cultivator at the same realm as him, even if he managed to defend against the attack, would have been sent flying at least a couple of kilometers.

Normally speaking, Krune ought to have been the same. However, the force behind the impact, when met with his body weight, only managed to send him flying for a hundred meters.

'Does his Spiritual Incarnation rapidly increase his weight?' The God Trial Realm cultivator frowned as his Godly Energy churned, condensing armor over himself. It shone with a metallic sheen, covered with various reddish-blue patterns.

They were all formations, condensing countless mysterious effects. The moment they appeared, it was as if he had become countless times stronger.

The mysterious formations each had a special effect, slowly spreading over his armor as they even spread into the air, dancing gently like the sea waves. The Godly Energy of the area swirled into them as the patterns acted like veins, condensing mysterious weapons in the air.

Soon, each weapon condensed a wielder, mysterious monster-like humanoids. There were five of them, each emanating a unique presence.

Upon seeing them, Krune was surprised, turning alert immediately, thinking, 'He's not your typical cultivator.'

At first, Krune had assumed him to be just another God Trial Realm cultivator that he could defeat easily. When he defended against the sword beam, his thoughts remained unchanged. The opponent's strength was only average.

But now, the moment the mysterious patterns appeared, the aura of the God Trial Realm cultivator climbed to the peak of the God Trial Realm immediately, not to mention the fact that it was continuing to grow in strength.

"I'm Krune. What's your name?" Krune turned serious, grabbing Pestlor tightly as the sounds of ocean waves resounded from him, slowly coursing throughout the battlefield.

Upon hearing the sounds, including the faint pulsing of a heartbeat within, some of the Semi-God Realm cultivators turned around, focusing on his location.

"This is… him! He's returned?" one of them muttered.

Of course, when Krune had participated in the war before, they were all elites among mortals, having cultivation at the peak of the Nascent God Realm. Unsurprisingly, Krune's strength was vividly etched in their minds.

After all, he had steamrolled through his opponents back then without trouble, made a deal with a Primal God and had vanished soon after. He was pretty much a legend in the Herakkan Delta.

And now, the familiar sound made them recall his figure.

"Of course, he must have become an immortal." Some of them sighed, leaving their respective battles as they flew in the direction of the sound, watching the figure of Krune facing against a God Trial Realm cultivator.

Upon seeing Krune's opponent, most of them exclaimed in shock, "Isn't that Senior Ferlash? Krune's already strong enough to fight against such an opponent?"

"When did Senior Ferlash return? Wasn't he in secluded cultivation after obtaining a major treasure from the Sub-Realm?" another person muttered.

"It seems he's obtained a breakthrough in his powers. The mystic beasts he created now are countless times stronger than the past," a Semi-God Realm cultivator that had once fought near Krune muttered, excited to see how the fight would proceed.

Of course, in the over two centuries since the appearance of the Sub-Realm, countless geniuses had appeared, making a name for themselves. Among them were those that had cleared the Sub-Realm in the Four Sectors' Border Region.

They were a notch stronger than most geniuses.

As for Ferlash, he was a subpar immortal two centuries ago. He didn't have any explosive power or abilities to speak of. He was pretty lackluster.

But one day, when he participated in the war, during the time when the battle between the immortals was the most fierce, he luckily stumbled upon a God Trial Realm cultivator that was on the verge of death.

He luckily managed to kill that cultivator, immediately obtaining an inheritance from the Sub-Realm that changed his life. From that point onwards, his Spiritual Incarnation began to evolve, causing him to morph from a lackluster cultivator to a renowned genius.

From there, he reached the God Trial Realm, always challenging opponents stronger than himself. A couple of times, he was killed. Nevertheless, he always returned, defeating his opponents as he continued to grow stronger.

From then onwards, no matter what he faced, he continued to grow, surprising most immortals, causing them to wonder what inheritance he obtained from the Sub-Realm that changed him so much.

He was one of the brightest examples that had received the greatest of rewards from the Sub-Realm.

"I'm Ferlash," he spoke as his figure vanished, appearing before Krune as he condensed a pike that he thrust, unleashing a beam of energy in response, sending Krune flying for almost a kilometer.

"Haha! This is great!" Laughing in response, Krune faced his palm towards Ferlash. "I can also launch beams."
