Is that a Wisp?

Their heart rate accelerated as the quartet gazed at what seemed to be like a small sphere, blinking from time to time as it pulsated with a mysterious energy. Though, that wasn't all. Its shape continued to morph like it was a droplet of water suspended in a vacuum and was affected by foreign interferences.

"There's a formation installed here," Wally said after inspecting the key. "The moment we try to break the seal, the Mong Realm Spirit would know. And, it would be able to appear here instantly."

"Even I won't be able to do much in that situation," he continued. "So, we only have one chance."

"I can destroy the formation," Sterlena told him. "With my Heavenly Destruction Law, I'll be able to destroy the seal. The only thing to note is that I need a tremendous amount of Godly Energy to do this."

"There's the Cultivation Lotus in my subspace," Krune said in response to that. "Use it."

"Don't cross my body," Wally said. "Accumulate as much power as you can. Only send it out on my command. I'll help cover up the rest."

He then looked at Gegrafikan, telling him, "Sterlena would only act like a sword and cut the chains. I want you to swallow all of them. Even though it might take a lot of time for you to digest them, it's the fastest way to make them vanish. So, be prepared."

"Alright." Gegrafikan nodded after hearing that.

"What about me?" Krune asked.

"Prepare your tribulation lightning," Wally told him. "The moment the Mong Realm Spirit arrives here after being alerted, attack it with all your power first. In that fraction of a second, we'll take the chance to escape."

"Can the Calamity Realm Spirit reach you here?" Wally asked.

Krune focused for a moment before saying, "It cannot arrive here, and the speed at which my subspace moves is too slow in the eyes of the Mong Realm Spirit. It would be able to target us easily."

"Then, why don't you create a second wave?" Wally smiled, asking, "You've left enough of a backup, right?"

"Yes." Krune nodded, saying, "There's still enough infection in every city that has yet to be activated. After obtaining my God Seat, I've already begun to spread its effects. And this time, there won't be a Hunger Law in their bodies."

"There won't?" Wally was surprised to hear that. "Then, how will it take effect?"

"Annexation." Krune smiled as he explained, "Their laws would turn sentient and devour the other laws. All traces of my Hunger Law would vanish immediately after infecting them. So, my enemies wouldn't even be able to devise a counter for something that has vanished."

"It's just like someone remaining angry for at least a couple of days after being slapped on the face." Krune grinned. "The slap doesn't leave an impression, but the memory is enough to trigger them into a fuming reaction that would persist for long durations."

"I see. That's a solid principle." Wally nodded. "When I give the key, activate all of them."

"Yep, that's the plan." Krune nodded, closing his eyes as he began to concentrate, sensing all the Hunger Law scattered within the bodies of cultivators and immortals alike.

In the meantime, Sterlena continued to create a jet-black substance that she began to condense, turning it into a pair of scissors that continued to darken in color as the amount of Godly Energy she infused into it was to a suffocating level.

She continued with the process, slowly increasing the number of scissors. Each scissor was meant to sever one fragment of the seal.

The seal resembled chains wound over the key. The only difference was the fact that these chains were actually created by a cluster of Laws that were compressed and wound together by immense power.

Only the Realm Spirit was capable of a feat on this level. After all, if the laws were brought together to such an extent, it would pretty much create an explosion.

After all, the laws couldn't just casually be merged together. When the immortals used such an attack, that was possible thanks to the Divine Sense that acted as a boundary between each law.

That was how they were able to use various laws together in one attack or ability.

But what happened here was entirely different. There was no trace of Divine Sense on the chains. They were purely compressed together and wound into chains. Surprisingly, even with that, the laws remained docile.

"Since the Laws are pretty much part of its body, the Mong Realm Spirit has full control over them. If you're not a Realm Spirit, this would be an unimaginable feat," Wally spoke.

Time passed in such a fashion as Sterlena finished using up all the Godly Energy stored within the subspace, creating enough scissors to cut all the chains twice.

"Ready?" Wally asked, slowly condensing a mysterious barrier through the region. This was protection against any other traps that might activate when they stole the key.

"This is our key, right Krune?" Wally confirmed, just in case.

"Yes, this is our fourth key." Krune moved the Soul Needle up and down, watching it tilt itself accordingly like a compass, pointing right at the key.

Now that they had enough conformation, Wally slowly guided her as Sterlena sent the scissors out of Wally's ethereal body, positioning them over each chain that formed the seal.

"Are you ready, Gegrafikan?" Wally asked next.

"Yes." Gegrafikan nodded, taking on a miniature Spirit Aberrant form, having compressed his body to a fair extent. He was even able to hide within a law on a cultivator's body. So, something of this scale wasn't even a problem.

Gegrafikan had already prepared himself to devour everything to the limit, preventing the Mong Realm from reacting on time. As long as he devoured the severed chains first, the remainder wouldn't have enough time to grow and wrap around the key once again.

Slowly, everyone completed their preparations as Wally took a deep breath, looking around to ensure he didn't gloss over anything, double-checking everything.

He scanned around until he was sure this wasn't just the Mong Realm Spirit's trap. With that, he gave the command.

"Start!"
