"Ah shit. Here we go again!" Krune grunted as he turned around, beginning to run at his maximum speed without hesitation. Though, he frowned immediately, muttering, "She's ten times faster than me."

He had yet to fully heal himself. So, the speed he could erupt with was only superior to a Red Demon. As for the other party, she was blazing through using a powerful godly ability to catapult towards him.

Just a glance was enough for him to know that she was bad news."Damn it. Just why are all these crazies always attracted to me? Can't a wisp explore places peacefully?"

Even though he seemed flustered externally, he was rather calm internally, slowly condensing strength in himself. Moreover, with the Sonic Radar, he noticed that the other party directly flew towards him, shattering the earthen hands in her way.

She hadn't noticed the tiny creatures on the ground yet.

'I can use it to my advantage,' Krune thought. He was careful to avoid coming into direct contact with her. After all, he had witnessed firsthand as to how she destroyed a cultivator's Spiritual Incarnation, turning him into a regular cultivator before sucking out his lifespan.

'She must be used to dealing with cultivators possessing Spiritual Incarnations. Her level of expertise isn't something a regular cultivator would have,' Krune thought as he continued to frown. Soon, he concluded based on his experiences, 'She must have been an immortal, a rather terrifying one at that. After death, she had revived herself at this stage for some reason.'

With a glance, Krune determined the other party's secret. He then muttered, "Right, there are items in this infant supercontinent that Lady Strombisu needs. So, this person that's chasing me should have arrived here with similar intentions. Since she has a greater grasp of the laws than a regular cultivator at the Nascent God Realm, she wouldn't face any danger."

"So, she'll be able to obtain any treasure that she desires." Krune nodded after that. "That's a pretty solid plan. Unfortunately, I have no intention of tussling with you."

Krune took out a Wisp Core from his bag, shattering it as he condensed the Cloud Whale around him, activating the law of the Wind to the limit as he positioned himself within its horn. In fact, he had returned to his wisp form.

So, after retracting his ethereal form, there was only his Wisp Core that could be placed within the horn easily. Moreover, he placed his bag in the mouth of the hippo in the Triple Beast Ring, causing it to vanish as he used the Soul Needle to hold the ring safely.

The Triple Beast Ring perfectly settled itself towards the end of the Soul Needle where it was perfectly fixed. This was how he carried it before, preventing it from falling off while he was only using his Wisp Core.

On top of that, as the Soul Needle's tip was sharp, it allowed him to face as little air resistance as possible when the Cloud Whale finished condensing all the power it could muster. Then, followed by an air clap, one that destroyed all the earthen hands in the surroundings, it shot him out.

Air Needle!

Like a cannonball being launched by a cannon, Krune's Wisp Core flew out at blinding speeds, vanishing in an instant. It made a streak in the air, heading at a straight line due to the amount of power it possessed.

Kirena was charging towards Krune when she suddenly stopped, scowling as she cursed, "Just what the hell did that guy do? How come he disappeared all of a sudden?"

She riled up all her laws, using a myriad of tracking abilities. But no matter what, she was unable to find him, cursing aloud, "Damn it!"

This was the first time her prey had escaped from her grasp so brazenly. There were always talented cultivators around that managed to escape from her grasp using mysterious techniques. However, she had always been able to track them and eventually grab them for herself.

But now, Krune simply disappeared from her sight.

"I'll definitely find you and devour you. None of my prey would ever escape." Kirena grunted before continuing her path of flight, unleashing countless investigative abilities to scour for his traces.

"Ahhhhhh!" Krune shouted as he was unable to sense anything. His travel speed was so fast that whether it was his Sonic Radar, Divine Sense, or even Mental Energy, none of them were able to see anything.

The funny but scary thing was how he crossed the waves that his Sonic Radar emitted. He was traveling that fast.

Krune flew in the same manner for a good half-day before his speed reduced to the extent that his Mental Energy was barely able to sense something.

He then thought of something, realizing that it was too dangerous to leave his Wisp Core so unprotected. After a thought, he condensed the Cloud Whale around him once again.

The air resistance faced by the Cloud Whale wasn't any higher than his Wisp Core. After all, it was perfectly aerodynamic.

However, the reason Krune had condensed it was because he was able to see earthen hands jutting out of the ground. It was like seeing something in slow motion.

After all, he was still traveling at such a speed that by the time an earthen hand barely peeked out of the ground, he would have long gone past it.

Then again, as he continued to travel, Krune noticed that the height of the earthen hands continued to increase, thinking, 'Did they sense my arrival in advance since I am traveling at a straight line?'

Of course, he wasn't too worried now that he had the Cloud Whale to act as the first layer of defense. After all, he had condensed it in its full glory, spanning a length of 25 meters.

Plus, it began to suck in the air, beginning to compress it as the height of the earthen hands slowly began to reach it little by little. Soon, when it was about to touch the Cloud Whale, it unleashed a powerful Air Needle once again.

The earthen hands before it suddenly sported a hole in them, instantly cracking them due to the swirling winds that accompanied with a powerful shockwave.

And after that, the Cloud Whale crashed through them, shattering them into pieces.

After crashing through a lot of earthen hands, the Cloud Whale's speed had drastically reduced, allowing Krune to whip up both his Divine Sense and Mental Energy, freezing the tiny creatures that appeared in a cage of ice before picking them up.
