"Is that...?"
"Is that a..."
Th various Gods muttered in shock, staring at the terrifyingly vast entity that had appeared, feeling as if hope was renewed.
"Is that Krune?" Gautikh frowned, feeling a piercing pain as the front portion of his mouth had been destroyed by the penetrating lightning. Only then did he notice flickering sparks before him. As for Sterlena's figure, it had vanished.
Swoosh! Crackle!
A lightning bolt flashed throughout the battlefield, grabbing hold of all the injured and fighting before bringing them to one side.
"Thank you..." Sterlena said, gazing at the Thundercloud Whale that had saved her. Standing near her were the Dolk and Garg Realm Champions, also saved by it.
"Wally..." Krune stared at the injured figure of Wally, now unconscious, focusing on Wally's signature golden Wisp Core that was now in pieces. Wally wasn't dead, but he would never be able to wield his strength after this.
His life as the Wisp God was now over.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut strangely, Krune was calm as he brought Wally to one side, placing him in Feifei's hands. "Take care of him for me, will you?"
"He's fought hard." Saying so, Krune turned around, staring at the three Primordial Beasts before him. "Leave the rest to me."
Saying so, his figure flashed as the Thundercloud Whale vanished, causing Krune's body to be enveloped into lightning once again as his speed spiked, allowing him to appear behind Feura as he poked with his hand, unleashing a Lightning Needle that pierced a hole through her Primordial Beast hide.
"Keuk! He's strong!" Feura exclaimed in shock. "He's on the same level as an Adult!"
"I can see that," Zeit muttered solemnly, wondering, 'How did he become so strong in such a short time?'
He then sensed a tinge of death aura on Krune's body that dissipated shortly after, eyes lighting up as he communicated with Feura, "Where's Turmul? I need to ask him something."
"Turmul?" Feura was confused for a second, failing to find him in her beak. "He's not here!"
'Did Krune get him when his attack targeted her beak?' Zeit thought before noticing that Turmul was indeed alive. He had escaped from the battlefield, having teleported to the Kun Realm. 'Since when was he able to teleport like this?'
'Strange, I sensed the aura of four Primordial Beasts when I arrived here. But, there's only three now.' Krune frowned, staring at Feura. He had attacked her beak because he sensed another Primordial Beast aura from within, but now, that aura had vanished.
As it had been too weak, he wasn't able to determine who that was as Krune flashed around, evading Feura's attacks as he transformed into a lightning giant that slammed into Zeit, punching him away.
And when Gautikh intended to attack him, he flashed away, unwilling to fight the Taotie.
"If that's the case, then..." Gautikh stared at the group of Gods standing farther away, grinning as he exploded in speed, rapidly approaching them.
But suddenly, the space before him exploded, stopping his approach as a pale white light swirled around, condensing a fist that smacked him in the face.
"Ahhh!" At the sight of the white light, all the Mong Realm Gods kneeled in joy, roaring in response.
"Finally! You're here!" Dur-Te-Sara sighed in relief, watching the figure of Mon-Tu-Casha walk out of her body, having arrived here using her Law World.
"Haah... ha! Dammit!" Mon-Tu-Casha gasped in exhaustion. "I made it in time."
...
"What the?" The Qilin that approached the Mong Realm stared in shock after breaking through its spatial storm barrier, noticing that it was empty within. There wasn't even a speck of the spatial storm within, a region of void and nothing else.
The Qilin stared agape for a good few seconds before understanding what had happened, gritting in anger. "They've escaped!"
Indeed, upon seeing the state of battle at TTT, the Mong Realm and Garg Realm Spirits talked with each other already, causing both to escape using the Garg Realm's Realm Ability.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey began to head towards the Kun Realm, the safest location at the moment. After all, the closer they were to the Kun Realm, the stronger and faster it could create the spatial storm barrier to protect them.
"We should have done this from the start!" The Mong Realm Spirit muttered.
"But, there's not enough spatial storm near the Kun Realm to support us all," the Garg Realm Spirit replied. "Doing that would cause us to burn through our reserves faster."
This was why they refrained from moving before. Even if they could subsist with the portals created by the Rune Realm, that was only a substitute. It couldn't compare to the enormous volume of spatial storms a realm absorbed every second.
So, moving somewhere was indeed a disadvantage. But left with no other choice, they chose to escape, bringing all the Vassal Realms with them as they approached the Kun Realm, having talked with the Kun Realm Spirit beforehand.
This bought them valuable time as the Qilin and Black Turtle were in the original locations of the Mong and Garg Realms respectively. It would take them at least a week or two before they arrived at the TTT and even longer to reach the Kun Realm.
With this, the two realms were safe for the time being while Krune and Mon-Tu-Casha had arrived at the TTT to helm the battle.
However, the Gods had barely regained hope when news of despair hit them again. And this time, it was from the Kun Realm.
"Kyak!" Hazak's eyes slowly lost their light as Turmul munched on her body, devouring her, having ambushed them when they had been the most unguarded, having been working on producing more Satellite Realms for the war.
"Dammit!" Gegrafikan stared in alarm as more than half his body had been devoured by the opponent.
"A Spirit Aberrant Child..." Turmul grinned in excitement, having already recovered back to full strength, swallowing Hazak as his body brimmed with power, ballooning up massively.
After all, he went against the arrangements of the Tiangou Chief, swallowing Hazak the moment she appeared in the Graveyard of Gods, obtaining her power as he became an Adult Primordial Beast.
He then opened his mouth, unleashing abilities of all eight Primordial Beast races that he unearthed from Hazak's power, constricting Gegrafikan as he grinned in response, swallowing Gegrafikan. "Thank you for the food, Zule."
Chomp!
