Clang!
An old man that seemed like he was in his teenage years slammed a cup on the ground, crushing it in anger. "Damn it! My clone is dead."
"What happened?" Hovering in the air before him was an old man whose body was flickering in different states, turning from one law to another, displaying the frightening extent his cultivation had reached.
"The clone I sent to that infant supercontinent has been killed. If even that is dead, I fear the rest of our sect members have also" the teenager grunted in anger.
"Then, there's nothing we can do." The old man heaved a sigh in response. "But, don't think about such matters too much. We've already seized all the properties of the Golden Gate Sect. Their remaining forces have gone into hiding in a Sub-Realm. We'll eventually find them and destroy them."
"But first." His voice turned serious as he said, "We'll have to use up all the available resources to cultivate and become stronger. Countless surrounding sects are eyeing us. Our Mist Sect now controls four continents. We don't have the strength to protect it yet."
"Yes, sect leader. Your subordinate understands." The teenager bowed in response.
"Good." The old man nodded before waving his hands. "I want you to focus on reaching the peak of the Primal God Realm first. Let's send some weak immortals to search for Feifei and the remnants of the Golden Gate Sect. Our elites must solely focus on becoming stronger."
"I'll pass the order, sect leader," the teenager said before turning around to leave. But suddenly, he paused as his expression turned odd for a moment before an expression of delight appeared on his face.
He turned around, shouting excitedly, "Sect leader, my failsafe method worked. Even though that clone died, it passed me the related information. It was just that the information had to travel through a secluded law I cultivated and only managed to reach me now."
"Oh?" The sect leader lifted his brow, asking, "What did you find? Don't keep me in suspense."
"I dare not, sect leader." The teenager laughed before saying, "It's about Feifei's location. A decade ago, she was hiding in a place called Mountain Sect that's located near the Zamuria Continent."
"Zamuria Continent?" The sect leader frowned, deep in thought. "I see, that makes sense."
"Does sect leader know about the place?" The teenager was surprised by the leader's response.
"I do." The sect leader nodded, saying, "Once we've collated all our people and stabilized the four continents under us, I had planned to invade the trio of Zamuria, Rumria, and Guria continents. There are some lucrative Sub-Realms there that some Gods had created in the past."
"Such a thing exists there?" The teenager was surprised. "If so, we should hurry and"
"No, that'll be foolish." The sect leader shook his head. "That would mean we'll have to go against three continents. With our unstable foundation, we'll be courting death. Each continent has at least two Primal Gods defending them. That's six Primal Gods in total, not to mention any unknown elements that could be factored into the situation."
"I was foolish." The teenager bowed in response.
"I have a lot of expectations towards you, Gucheng," the sect leader told him. "Use as many resources as you need, but I want you to reach the peak as soon as possible. After that, we'll invade those three sister continents and seize the Sub-Realms before attempting ascension into the God Realm."
"Yes, I'll get to it immediately." He flew out of their headquarters before making an announcement to the sect members of the Mist Sect. "Those at the Nascent God Realm, Semi-God Realm, and God Trial Realm, form an army and begin preparations for war. This mission is of utmost priority."
"If we have to stop the Golden Gate Sect from making an uprising in the future, Feifei must be killed, no matter the cost. Plant your Land Incarnations here and finish preparations as soon as possible."
"Yes!" came a roar from the sect members that heard the announcement. Soon, war preparations were being made.
"Hmm, is that it?" Sterlena asked in confusion. "Are you sure this was the last of them?"
"Yes." Krune nodded, looking through the memories he had harvested. "Whether it's the Golden Gate Sect or the Mist Sect, we've killed everything that had entered the infant supercontinent. Though, it's quite unfortunate that the ex-Primal God from the Mist Sect was nothing but an unconnected clone. It would have been great if we had damaged him."
"Well, not even I have a guarantee of being able to damage a Primal God with my current cultivation base," Sterlena said to Krune. "Even though my comprehension is the same, the level to which I could dominate my laws grows higher with an increase in cultivation. This is not to mention the innate quality of Godly Energy, power of Divine Sense, the basic fusion of the various laws into my body during breakthroughs, and so on all contribute to a rapid spike in power."
She then stopped speaking, realizing that Krune was distracted. "Are you worried about Feifei? We'll be able to return through your subspace, right?"
"Yes, but the treasures here would rapidly help our sect grow. And that's necessary for the upcoming war. So, I've been unable to decide yet." Krune sighed.
"Then, let's do it like this." After thinking for a moment, Sterlena said, "We'll loot till our hearts' content for one year and then return to the Mountain Sect. It'll only take a minute through your subspace, right? We'll then become immortals and raise our cultivation as quickly as we can."
"Let's get as much battle experience as possible so that we wouldn't need to worry about facing any blocks while cultivating," she concluded.
"Thanks, sis." Krune laughed. "You've really helped me clear my mind. For some reason, I've been feeling mentally drained ever since I've arrived at the God Realm. Everything just feels"
"Shh" She stopped him from speaking further. "Don't think about such matters too much. The God Realm is just that messy. It has always been that way. And as a wisp, there are plenty of matters that you'll have to face in the future, especially the enemies that Wally had made."
"After all, when you reach the Primal God Realm, they'll come looking for you."
