Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 886 Conceptualization of his Theory

All the Pseudo-Wisps stopped cultivating as they surrounded the teleportation formation in the center of the dome-shaped structure. Soon after, Little Krune became whole again as he returned to Krune's Wisp Core. After that, Krune took in a deep breath, calming his mind as he inhaled and exhaled the Godly Energy. With what he was doing, he wanted to be in the best state possible.

He then observed the two teleportation formations, going over the formations carved in them, watching how they made use of all the materials forming the platform to create a teleportation formation.

Eventually, after a couple of hours had passed, Krune looked at two Pseudo-Wisps, telling them to come closer to him. At the very moment they did, he grabbed hold of them, slowly concentrating as he changed the appearance of their bodies.

Their ethereal Wisp forms crumbled as they gradually turned into a blob of jelly, trying to condense into a cylindrical platform as something sparked within them, causing them to shatter into specks of light. Unsurprisingly, that light was none other than Godly Energy.

The blast of Godly Energy sent Krune flying for a couple of meters before he could catch himself. Thanks to the density of the Godly Energy, the blast wasn't able to travel far with a lot of power. If it had been outside, he would have definitely been sent flying far away, not to mention with multiple injuries.

Then again, no injury mattered to the current him. After all, thanks to his Spiritual Incarnation, Krune was able to recover from any injury easily within a couple of seconds. That's why he was unbothered by getting hurt, continuing with his experiment.

"They can only turn into other living beings. Becoming inanimate objects is not possible…I think," Krune muttered as he looked at himself, noticing the Wisp Core at the center of his ethereal form.

As he stared at it for a long time, Krune realized that his earlier train of thought was wrong. He wanted to make the Pseudo-Wisps resemble the teleportation formations so he could have a mobile teleportation formation anywhere he went.

Sadly, as it turned out, such a thing wasn't possible. It seemed the Pseudo-Wisps could only take the form of something that had life in it. As the teleportation formation was just an inanimate object, Krune was unable to imitate it using his Pseudo-Wisps.

"Well, that experiment is a failure," Krune sighed as he muttered, feeling it was somewhat disappointing that he wasn't able to do it. Then again, it was just an experiment, so he wasn't too disappointed. What he had wished to create was something else. Krune looked at the teleportation formation before him as Little Krune took control of a Pseudo-Wisp.

It then entered the portal to his subspace and hovered above the teleportation formation in it. Similarly, Krune hovered above the teleportation formation in the center of the dome-shaped chamber.

Both were in their Wisp forms, which meant that they could fly. Well, to be more exact, it would be better to call it hovering slightly off the ground. Though, if the ground caved in, they would also fall.

Krune and Little Krune were both in their Wisp forms, each hovering above a teleportation formation. Ten Pseudo-Wisps soon entered Krune's subspace, surrounding Little Krune.

At this moment, they were in full sync. Any distractions, unnecessary thoughts, and so on were discarded in order to achieve this state of full synchronization. Surprisingly, their bodies started to melt, dripping on the teleportation formation like wax melted from a candle. The moment they fell on the teleportation formation, they infused themselves into it, immediately disappearing.

Krune could no longer think or even feel anything. He lost his sense of self, his ego, or what it meant to be Krune. At present, he was just a cluster of laws that were acting based on previous mental cues.

Little Krune, too, felt the same. Its body began to melt like wax and dripped onto the teleportation formation below.

Slowly but surely, their ethereal forms turned into the radiance of a rainbow as each respective color slowly melted away. It started with red, dripping onto the teleportation formation like it was blood.

If anyone were to see this, they would assume something was placed in the center that was dripping blood.

Drip Drop…Drip Drop!

The substances from their Wisp forms continued to cover the formations. Their bodies were no more, completely melting away as they formed into a cluster that continued to drip. The subspace in Krune's Wisp Core turned shaky, slightly trembling as faint cracks started to form in its borders.

Unsurprisingly, what Krune was doing made his Wisp Core unstable. This experiment he was doing was causing harm to himself and even putting his life at risk. If it failed, he didn't even have a guarantee just how many years, decades, or even centuries after he would revive.

Nevertheless, he had planned enough. Also, he believed in the saying that when presented with the opportunity, one must grab it. Otherwise, the opportunity would pass away, leaving one to regret his indecision in the future. That was why Krune acted promptly.

As the subspace began to destabilize, the remaining Pseudo-Wisps in the chamber collapsed one after another, turning into a stream of Godly Energy to reinforce the bubble and mend the cracks. This way, the subspace was prevented from being completely destroyed.

One Pseudo-Wisp—in the subspace—dissolved into Godly Energy and seeped into the teleportation formation, powering it up.

Similarly, in the dome-shaped chamber, a Pseudo-Wisp dissolved into Godly Energy and powered the teleportation formation, activating it. Once it was activated, the teleportation formation began to absorb the Godly Energy from the surroundings, increasing the power of its activation.

The spatial laws in the area gradually solidified as all the related laws from his Land Incarnation converged into it. While the two were continuing to drip, some of their drops coursed through the teleportation formation, replacing the original in the parts, completing them in one fluid motion as they became part of the formation.

The laws forming the formation turned into the respective laws that were part of Krune's Spiritual Incarnation. The dot representing the subspace gleamed with a resplendent hue as the Wisp Core radiated every color that could be found on a rainbow.

The Wisp Core began to spin, rotating faster and faster as the rainbow lights it emitted turned white to the eyes of the onlookers. And if one looked closely, present within the white light was a jet-black dot, forming a swirling mass as it resonated with the teleportation formation below. They were like celestial bodies, causing a stream of black energy to arc out of them before returning to their centers.

After a few more waves of energy were emitted, a black line was created from the jet-black dot as it clashed into the teleportation formation, causing it to melt. The laws in the area were in a state of frenzy as everything became chaotic. Godly Energy was consumed at tremendous speeds, forming a vortex at the center.

The jet-black dot began to fall as Krune's Wisp Core shattered and vanished. With that, the jet-black dot crashed into the teleportation formation, turning its surface into liquid as it penetrated through the formation's surface, like a rock moving inside water.

The teleportation formation turned into liquid as it spread on the ground for a fair distance until its volume was stretched thin. At this point, Krune's ethereal form was no longer in the air. It had completely melted and disappeared.

The liquid spread over the ground and seeped into it, causing something to be pushed away as it occupied the region, becoming the controller of the place.

Land Incarnation!

What Krune attempted here was something similar to the Immortal Severance Zone. Normally, even after using a Land Incarnation, the native laws of the area wouldn't be completely pushed away. Traces of it would still remain.

Then again, that was unless the Land Incarnation was something unleashed when one died. In such a case, it was the most potent. Such Land Incarnations would completely push away all native laws, solely becoming the dominant laws in the affected area.

That's why Krune attempted this, to obtain the greatest effect he had desired.

Godly Energy flowed into the area as faint specks of rainbow light gushed out, condensing into a sphere at the center that began to revolve, radiating with white light. Its speed began to slow down as the rainbow lights became apparent once again. Soon, the sphere stopped rotating.

It was Krune's Wisp Core. Inside it was a small dot depicting his subspace. It was filled with cracks right now, while all the Pseudo-Wisps within had vanished. Even the clone controlled by Little Krune had disappeared. They had been consumed to mend the damage. That's why it still existed without completely breaking apart.

As for Little Krune, it was present, resting in his Wisp Core.

After absorbing some Godly Energy, the Wisp Core condensed its ethereal form around it as Krune gradually regained consciousness. At the very instant he regained full consciousness, he peered into his subspace, noticing that it was empty. The teleportation formation within had disappeared.

The walls were on the verge of shattering as he opened a tiny hole, afraid to increase it any wider in fear that it would completely shatter. He then watched the Godly Energy enter through the hole, controlling the rate at which it flowed to a level he was safe with, using it to mend the cracks in the subspace.

It took a lot of time, especially since he couldn't use much force here as it would destroy his subspace. Thankfully, as he continued to mend the cracks, the size of the hole he could safely open increased, gradually increasing the amount of Godly Energy entering the subspace within a certain amount of time.

Ten days passed in such a fashion before Krune finished completely mending it, now taking the time to inspect the change in laws within. Immediately, a sense of euphoria washed over him as Krune shouted at the top of his lungs, "Success!"
