Krune and Sterlena increased their speed, being one of the early groups to enter the core of the infant supercontinent, immediately feeling the difference.

Once entering, Krune quickly realized that the only restriction at the place was on their cultivation bases. None could become immortals here yet. On the other hand, everything else was possible.

Then again, the restriction on the cultivation was slowly weakening as the infant supercontinent was approaching closer and closer to completion.

Krune pondered for a bit, smiling immediately as he said to Sterlena, "Let's not stop. We'll have enough storage rings after a minute."

"Alright." Sterlena was surprised at his claim but didn't stop, continuing to run as they immediately felt a suffocating aura.

It was from a stalk of grass, one that bore a tiny fruit at the top. Size-wise, it was nothing spectacular. However, the aura it unleashed was on a whole other level.

God Trial Realm!

It was a precious herb that even God Trial Realm cultivators and above coveted. To think such a herb grew out in the open here.

"Move out of the way!" Suddenly, a burly man bellowed, riling up the ambient Godly Energy in the surroundings as he condensed a colorful bird, sending it hurling towards Krune and Sterlena, intending to pick the herb first.

Since they were the closest to it, they were targeted.

"Hmph!" Krune snorted as he snapped his fingers, causing a thick column of ice to condense behind him, stopping the impact.

But a second later, the colorful bird broke through the column of ice, intending to head towards them, when a column of rock jutted out, trapping it within. It then retreated into the ground, making the surface return to normal as if nothing had happened.

A couple of seconds later, a resounding boom occurred as the colorful bird exploded.

All along, the speed of the duo didn't lessen in the least. Even though it seemed like this herb was growing nearby, that was an illusion caused by the powerful aura it emitted.

In truth, it was located somewhere far away, spanning almost a minute by the time Krune and Sterlena appeared next to it.

"Here!" Krune shouted suddenly, handing her a high-quality storage ring. It was enough for Semi-God Realm cultivators to use comfortably and store objects in their realm.

"Thanks," Sterlena said, causing rainbow radiance to gush into the storage ring when its quality was forcibly raised, allowing it to now store God Trial Realm-related objects.

The rainbow-colored radiance spanned out and wrapped around the precious herb, instantly uprooting it without damaging it. Sterlena then snapped her fingers, causing the ground nearby to morph as a box jutted out, suitable for storing the herb.

Storing the herb within, she placed the box in her storage ring. She also laid down countless inscriptions on the storage ring to prevent the divine senses of others from intruding into it.

"Give me your ring," she said, grabbing hold of Krune's as she upgraded it similarly, also adding countless arrays before returning it to him. "There, it's better this way."

"Thanks." Krune nodded, feeling at ease. After all, he now had the qualifications to do so. After all, his subspace had returned.

It had already grown in size to house a massive city within. After all, a century had passed. The ten clones in the Mountain Sect had been comprehending the laws related to it all along. So, the space it contained continued to expand at a considerable rate.

Not only that, the Cultivation Lotus within had reached the Semi-God Realm in quality, producing Rank 5 God Stones.

After all, there were some clones in charge of unleashing tribulation lightning on it all this time, mechanically repeating it for a century now. With every refinement, it was upgraded a little.

Eventually, the Godly Energy within the subspace had saturated to the extent they began to condense and turn into God Stones.

So, he could say with assurance that he no longer had to worry about Godly Energy usage, able to use as much as he needed.

He condensed a couple of clones within, making them condense pills using the development effect of his Ocean Heart. It was for Sterlena to improve the strength of her physique.

Since they would be fighting against terrifying enemies next, giving her the edge, no matter how minimal, would still prove useful.

As for himself, Krune took in a deep breath as the Godly Energy from his subspace flowed into his triple dantians, circulating as it alternated from one form of energy to another.

Soon, the pressure they created reached a qualitative point when Krune's aura suddenly burst forth, making a breakthrough.

First Stage Nascent God Realm!

"It's good that you've attained a breakthrough" Sterlena was just about to congratulate him when she noticed Krune's aura spike once again.

Second Stage Nascent God Realm!

"That's amazing" she said in surprise when Krune's aura exploded once more, turning her numb.

Third Stage, Fourth Stage, Fifth Stage

In the Realm of Sufferings, Krune had attained a breakthrough in his Mental Energy. Since his Deific Wisp Technique was based on all three forms of cultivation that he possessed, just the sheer upgrade to his Mental Energy affected the others, elevating them as well.

So, without any suspense, his cultivation base continued to climb up, quickly reaching the peak of the Nascent God Realm.

Not only that, it continued to climb up as Krune was shocked. "Just how much did I accumulate?"

The conditions for breakthrough not only depended on painstaking energy circulation through the meridians alone. Obtaining enlightenment also helped it a lot.

And for Krune, after obtaining the life experiences of four other people, his growth potential had shot up a lot, beyond what he had expected, enough for him to not even face any obstacle to shoot up towards the Semi-God Realm.

Unfortunately, the restriction at the place prevented him from doing that. "Well, I'll be able to stabilize my realm"

He had just uttered it in expectation when Krune realized that his cultivation base was as stable as it could be. It was as if he had broken through long ago and had completely stabilized his renewed powers.

"Experience." Sterlena smiled at his confusion, explaining, "Experience plays a major role in our cultivation. That's why everyone fights or explores different places. It is to widen their horizons. Your experience in the Realm of Sufferings gave you what you lacked before."

"So, your foundation has only become more solid."
