Is that a Wisp?

[Region: Epic Hell]

[Entry Cost for the Region, Magnificent Forest: 100 Godly Points]

Upon noticing the change, Krune read the words displayed on the tablet, focusing on the cost necessary to leave the region and enter the next one, the one covered by the forest. Upon seeing its brilliantly horrible naming scheme, Krune realized the next region would be no different from his current place, Epic Hell.

"It needs 100 Godly Points," Krune frowned as he muttered, still unable to determine a method to obtain Godly Points. He then punched the tablet once, watching the contents displayed on its change.

[Region: Epic Hell]

[Number of cultivators: 71]

[Total Score: 16 Godly Points]

[Highest Score: 12 Godly Points]

"These guys are still accumulating Godly Points," Krune muttered, looking at the last row as he sighed. "Surprisingly, another one is added to the list. How are they accumulating Godly Points?"

Krune could not help but feel a bit troubled. Even though he still retained vast reserves of Godly Energy, it wasn't infinite. He was bound to run out of it sooner or later. He had hoped the Sub-Realm would be rich in Godly Energy so he could cultivate faster and improve his cultivation base.

Unfortunately, reality proved otherwise. There wasn't even an ounce of Godly Energy in the place. Rather, if it had been just that, then it would have been fine. Sadly, every speck of dust in his region was capable of growing into a giant by absorbing Godly Energy.

With that, if he got trapped, he would be wrung dry. Plus, since there was no Godly Energy, even if he were to lay down his Land Incarnation in the place, nothing would happen. He wouldn't be able to revive. In other words, it was almost a lost cause unless he determined the method to obtain Godly Points and leave the region towards another place.

Krune soon took out a shield, activated the Balance Laws on it before slamming it into the regional barrier. He watched the rainbow light coating the shield slam into the region barrier, trying to pull out something from within it. Unsurprisingly, a second later, the Balance Laws he had unleashed were fully expended.

Krune looked at the minute crack on the regional barrier, sighing when he noticed it heal almost instantly. This was enough for him to determine that the level of the laws used in the regional barrier was way too high a level. So, despite using his full strength, all he was able to do to it was just disrupt it a little.

Otherwise, he could have drawn all the laws forming the regional barrier towards the shield and made a large enough hole to pass through. Now that he found out it wasn't possible, Krune thought of something, unleashing a clone as it turned into a bird.

It then carried a shield using its claws and flew closer to the ground, focusing on a certain rock on the ground, one that was barely a couple of centimeters wide. It then opened its mouth and shot out a tiny fireball.

The fireball was exactly the size of the rock, landing on the rock and melting it. A couple of seconds later, the melted rock slowly wriggled and formed into a humanoid shape. It was still a wriggly form of lava, but having absorbed the remaining Godly Energy from the fireball, it had become a figure that was four centimeters in height.

Just when it had oriented itself, the bird landed on the ground with a tremendous force, slamming the shield onto the lava figure, causing it to splatter from the force. It had turned into drops of lava that splattered all over the ground.

Thanks to the splatter, more of its form was exposed to the cooler air, causing its body to turn solid. A couple of minutes later, all the splattered droplets had become solid. They then wriggled, slowly branching each part with new tendrils as they moved on the ground, inching towards a relatively bigger shard.

As time passed, they joined with one another, becoming the four-centimeter-high figure once again. Though, the moment it finished doing so, the bird landed on it again, slamming with the shield. To avoid any of its Godly Energy from being siphoned from contact, the bird only made the shield touch the figure.

The force from the impact lodged it deep into the ground, cracking it all apart. Moreover, it was flattened, causing the joined shards to break apart once again. Thanks to the force behind the impact, each shard was covered by cracks, seemingly on the verge of completely shattering apart.

As it began to gather together once again, Krune thought of something. Safely tucked within the stomach of the Escapist, he took out a shield, breaking it into two pieces as he unleashed the Laws of Fire, Force, and Gravity.

He then used the laws on the two pieces like a hammer, turning them into a mortar and pestle. Moreover, he changed the design of the mortar to ensure the contents within wouldn't spill out while being ground by the pestle.

As it was something he had prepared to use at the First Stage of the God Foundation Realm, the shields were pretty weak. Moreover, his current strength was enough to easily tear it apart. With that, Krune was able to swiftly reforge it into a piece of different equipment.

The rock figure just managed to put itself together once again when the bird hovered above it and began to flap its wings, causing fierce winds. It was just using its ability to draft the wind to lift the rock figure.

It was pretty tiny and was easy to lift. Even then, the bird was careful to not touch it or emit any Godly Energy. The mental pressure of being in the region was making Krune conscious of the Godly Energy flowing in him.

Because of that, he was making a note of the ways and the causes that he was emitting a trace of Godly Energy into the surroundings. Because of this, he was slowly but steadily improving his methods to retract his Godly Energy, reducing his emissions.

The rock figure was lifted using the flowing wind and dumped inside the mortar, causing a metallic sound. The entrance was then blocked by the pestle that slammed on it, repeating the process as the bird used its two claws to play with it.

The rock figure was repeatedly broken as it consumed the Godly Energy it had amassed to re-join itself. The process of recovering and shattering continued repeatedly before the rock figure failed to form anymore.

It had completely expended all the Godly Energy it had stored in itself and had returned to its prior inactive state. Upon seeing it, Krune realized something, heaving a sigh of relief as he muttered, "Physical attacks are useful. And since they're rocks, the best bet against them is a…hammer."

He then looked at his shields stored within his storage rings, thinking for a moment before he took out a couple of others. After a moment of thought, Krune felt bold, making the bird bring in the pestle and mortar.

The rock figure was fully ground into the finest of particles within it. It was a soft soil now. The first thing Krune did was to fix the pestle into the mortar permanently. After that, he slowly unleashed numerous fires, dumping the myriad laws in his arsenal into the fire.

This way, the properties of the fire constantly changed, refining the mortar-pestle combo. The material forming it melted, mixing into the power stored within. The influx of Godly Energy immediately caused the powder to begin growing.

Though, before it could fully grow, he first melted it, turning it into lava. Using his Mental Energy, Krune controlled the specks of lava, allowing it to seep into the pestle and mortar combo. This way, he fused the material into the item, creating a whole new product.

As the mental energy wasn't a product of the God Realm, even though the effect of the law of Cause and Effect acted on it, it was still absorbed at a pace slower than Godly Energy. Therefore, it allowed Krune enough time to manipulate the lava and fully mix it with the pestle-mortar combo, turning it into a single item.

He hadn't even finished reforging it when Krune activated the Calamity Laws, immediately imbuing numerous conditions on it. As he had already fused the lava into the item, they had become one. With that, when he used some Godly Energy, the item absorbed it and expanded in size.

Nevertheless, thanks to his actions, the substance of the rock figure in it could no longer act based on its wishes. It was imprisoned into the item completely. Moreover, it was so finely distributed and fused into the other particles in the item that its traits were carried over to everything.

So, the entire item absorbed the energy to grow in size. Even though that was the case, it retained the same appearance. If Krune had tried to make the rock in the region into an item, it would gain sentience the moment it absorbed some Godly Energy.

After that, it would be able to fragment itself and fuse itself into any shape it desired. It would be able to move and attack Krune. But now, Krune's quick thinking had prevented that possibility from ever happening.

Then again, if he didn't move fast, it was bound to grow beyond a tolerable state. Time passed in such a fashion as the Escapist morphed into a different bird-type demon beast, one that was the biggest of the flight-based demon beasts Krune had seen in the Lawless Plains.

And in its stomach lay an item that was currently 20 meters in length, weighing tens of tons. 64 days had already passed as Krune had gone through 64 failed attempts. Finally, when the weight of the item was about to increase beyond the capacity of the demon beast clone's ability to handle it, Krune teared up, relaxing as he could see a faint glow forming on the item.

He had awakened the equipment spirit of the item he was working on all along. The very moment it appeared, it absorbed all the Godly Energy in the item to raise its cultivation, slowly shrinking the item's size back to normal.

Matter and energy were being exchanged right before Krune, making the process seem absurdly simple.
