Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 877 The Typhoon of Godly Energy

Unfortunately, the egg didn't hatch naturally but forcefully cracked from external pressure. Krune gazed at its inside, tearing up as he looked at the figure of a demon beast baby that was squirming inside it on the verge of death.

If left alone, it would die. After all, it still needed time to be nurtured within the egg before it grew enough to hatch.

"Too bad there's nothing we could do to save it." Yulian sighed in slight disappointment, feeling helpless as he sensed the lifeforce of the demon beast baby gradually fade away.

"What's the use of cultivating if we fail to save a single child. Dying before being able to see this vast world, isn't that cruel?" Krune said in response, gently touching the demon beast baby.

"Gue..." The demon beast baby's hand gently touched Krune's, making the latter sigh as he decided to help the little guy.

Myriad Energies Technique!

Calamity Laws!

Balance Laws!

Mental Energy!

Krune activated all of them as he focused every technique he activated on the demon beast baby, using the laws concerning life and healing on the baby. As both laws were composed of all laws, Krune made use of this to help the demon beast baby.

The demon beast baby wasn't injured, though. Rather, it was dying because it hadn't finished forming. Unless Krune did something about it, he wouldn't be able to save it.

Elements Cooperation Sub-law!

Krune ensured every element forming the demon beast baby functioned perfectly. After all, anybody, whether human or demon beast, was a mixture of numerous elements in a certain ratio that were birthed using life energy.

Such a thought appeared in his head as Krune immediately focused on the aspect, keeping all the bodily functions in the demon beast baby in harmony as he made the laws related to healing treat its potential growth as a form of recovery and something to be attained. This way, its present state was considered as an injury as the healing effect became a nurturing effect on its growth.

Laws Cooperation Sub-law!

The innumerous laws unleashed by the Calamity and Balance Laws were forced together into harmony based on his thoughts, focusing on what he wished to achieve. The laws that were unrelated to the task immediately suppressed themselves while those related to the task were magnified, cooperating with each other as they seemingly gained sentience, changing their ratio to suit the needs.

Krune felt Little Cally appear for an instant before disappearing. The Calamity Laws soon experienced a change after that, subtly overlaying themselves on the demon beast baby. Krune felt that it was subtly changing the effect of the laws to temper the demon beast baby's body so it could prolong its life until it completed its nurturing.

Nevertheless, it still wasn't enough. After all, what he was doing was a process of nature at the end of which life would be birthed.

Energies Cooperation Sub-law!

Krune poured in his Godly Energy into the demon beast baby, trying to circulate it into itself. After all, the baby was already at the Ninth Stage of the Mortal Rejection Realm. If it had grown fully in its mother, it would have reached the Godly Fusion Realm by birth.

At present, the Godly Energy failed to circulate in the demon beast baby's body. It was struggling to do so as the meridians in it were beginning to fail. Krune also noticed that its heartbeat began to become slower and weaker.

"Am I going to fail?" Krune sighed as he asked, watching everything he did fail to save it. He was unable to give it the effect that allowed the natural growth within its mother's uterus.

He then saw that a tinge of his Godly Energy moved into its meridians and circulated a little, eventually getting converted into the lifeforce that nurtured it. Unfortunately, this speed was insanely slow, almost negligible considering the rate at which the baby was losing lifeforce. There was no helping it since Krune had just started to create the Balance Law's first sub-law. It was this loss in lifeforce that allowed Krune to sense its presence from afar in the field of death.

Krune used his Mind Splitting Technique, causing thoughts to collide in his head as he grasped every tiny detail to find another way. He then looked at himself, thinking as he took out all the God Stones from his storage ring, including those he accumulated from the realms below.

Even though their quality wasn't the greatest, their quantity would still give some benefit. After all, they were enough to make a small hill. Krune didn't look away from the demon beast baby, transmitting his voice to Yulian, "Yulian, please leave me alone here for now. I don't wish for anyone to see what I'm about to do next. Also, please prevent anything from disturbing me."

"Alright." Yulian found it strange but decided to follow Krune's words. He disappeared from the scene right after, landing atop the carcass of a demon beast far away as he stood guard. He was a professional, so when he complied, he ensured there wouldn't even be a chance he might glance at Krune by mistake. It was the sense of professionalism he lived and abided by.

"Hah!" Krune shouted as his human form crumbled. Soon, his flesh disappeared, becoming a mass of pure energy. It was energy in the purest form, condensing into a sentient entity.

A wisp!

Krune returned to his true form as his manipulation abilities spiked in prowess. He used his Godly Energy to imbue the Myriad Energies Technique in the demon beast baby, artificially engraving the godly meridians in its body.

Since its meridians were failing, he resorted to this. Moreover, as long as Godly Energy circulated in its body, it would eventually survive. At least, that was what he hoped. But when he was just about to start, Krune noticed a faint rejection from the demon beast baby's body.

It hadn't even been born, so such changes were too much for it to bear.

'Beings born from heaven and earth, condensed by the energy flowing through the air, the land, the people, and so on. In a land rich with energy, a being of nature would be birthed, the purest form of energy with sentience, a Wisp.'

Krune thought to himself, 'Since your fleshly body is failing, I'll give you an energy body. Or at least, I'll try to. There's nothing else I can do if this doesn't work.'

Krune then used his ethereal wisp flames to envelop the demon beast in it. As mentioned all the way back, Krune could change the shape of his ethereal form as he wished, and so he did. The moment he saw the demon beast baby's lifeforce stabilize, he sighed in relief.

Like an insatiable vortex, Krune absorbed Godly Energy from the air and all the surrounding God Stones.

A massive phenomenon soon appeared as a result of this. A typhoon had been created, causing all the Godly Energy in the environment to be pulled over to Krune. Heaven and Earth were condensing energy into one place, the same phenomenon that occurred when a Wisp was born.

The energy flowed into Krune, turning it into his lifeforce before being infused in the demon beast baby. Its body slowly turned transparent as the fleshly part of it absorbed a tremendous amount of energy as it was being converted into an energy form.

Then again, as Wisps were beings of energy that were naturally unable to cultivate, the demon beast baby's meridians collapsed, causing its situation to take a turn for the worse. Without Godly Energy circulating in its meridians, its lifeforce began to slip away.

Krune actively infused his Godly Energy into its body while his Balance Laws prevented its situation from deteriorating further. If it wasn't for his Balance Laws, it would have died long ago.

As for the Calamity Laws, what it was doing now was similar to when Krune used it to awaken equipment. It threw in conditions to help the baby stabilize its condition, treating it as a piece of equipment. Every condition that could help its survival was automatically absorbed by the baby.

Krune steadily formed the godly meridians in its body, engraving it one after another to create the circuit. He had his own circuit to reference, so he did just that. He didn't change anything upon seeing the demon beast become more and more like him. A harmony of sorts was established between them as they synchronized.

"What the...?" Yulian trembled in shock as he looked up, watching the typhoon of Godly Energy rush towards the place Krune was at. Since it was covered by the carcass of a massive demon beast, Yulian was unable to see what was happening.

It was the reason he had arrived at such a place. Even in the case he was shocked and turned over to look, he wouldn't be able to see what Krune was doing. Yulian controlled his curiosity from getting the best of him as he stayed put, gazing at the broiling energy in astonishment.

Hundreds of kilometers away, the man with the crown noticed the phenomenon, stopping as he gawked while asking, "Where is Krune right now?"

"…At…the center of it." An astonishing voice resounded from the pouch hung on his hip.

"Hahaha, amazing, just amazing!" The man with the crown laughed, taking out a ring from the pouch. He activated it, summoning its ring spirit. The ring spirit was shaped like a demon beast with wings, large enough to carry him.

He hopped onto it as it took off to the air, ordering, "Let's head there! Quick! Before it finishes!" He wore the ring on his ring finger as the equipment spirit sped through the skies.

"Ugh..." Krune grunted as his godly meridians creaked under pressure. If it had been anything other than the godly meridians, it would have long exploded under the pressure of Godly Energy flowing into it.

Under that pressure, the amount of Godly Energy inside Krune spiked all of a sudden as his cultivation base had instantly returned to the Second Stage of the God Foundation Realm. The Suppression Law that had been suppressing his cultivation was absorbed into the baby automatically.

"What the…fuck?" Krune heard Little Cally's shocked voice full of disbelief as it was also sucked into the baby. It was followed by the Balance Laws, and every other law Krune had comprehended or came across. The laws he had only come across were recorded in the Calamity Laws.

As both the Calamity and Balance Laws were composed of all the laws in existence, the moment they were sucked into the baby, Krune was deprived of all his laws. Moreover, he had been using all of them, whether actively or passively, to aid the situation. The moment they all disappeared, the condition of the baby worsened.

"Aaargh!" Krune bellowed as all the God Stones were sucked dry of Godly Energy as a massive pillar formed in the sky, a beam of Godly Energy that impacted him. His godly meridians cracked further under the pressure as Krune finished engraving the godly meridians in the baby.

The moment he did so, all the Godly Energy flowed and circulated in it. The laws also seemed to have stabilized and condensed within it. Krune gasped for air after that, feeling weak as a protective instinct of sorts wrapped him.

He looked overwhelmed with joy as the baby's condition not only stabilized, but it had succeeded in becoming someone similar to him, a Wisp. However, it was also a demon beast at the same time. In a certain way, it was very similar to Fie, his daughter. But instead of wisp and human, it was a wisp and...well, Krune didn't know what race this demon beast was. There was a big difference, though. Although it kept its demon beast form, it didn't have a flesh and blood body. Its demon beast form...was ethereal, just like Krune's.

'Should I call it a demon wisp?' thought Krune for a second.

Its right hand trembled for an instant before its mouth weakly opened, emitting a voice that was transmitted using some Godly Energy as it asked, "…Dad?"
