Chapter 1415 Pyrrhic Victory  

"Hahaha…cough!" The immortal reformed his body, laughing in joy at successfully landing his attack when he coughed out blood all of a sudden, gazing in shock to see that Krune wasn't dead yet.

"But I destroyed his mind!" he shouted in disbelief, his eyes widening as he suddenly noticed a lone Thundercloud Whale hiding under Krune's armpit all along, small enough that it wasn't noticeable, only the size of his little finger.

But with it being alive, it meant that Krune's mind wasn't destroyed. After all, he and Little Krune were of one mind. Even if his mind was destroyed, as long as a fragment of Little Krune survived, his mind would recover instantly from it.

And that it did now as Krune's eyes shot upon, shuddering in response from cold sweat as he quickly sent the sole remaining Thundercloud Whale—Little Krune fragment—into his subspace, unleashing a beam of cold light that began to freeze up the Heavenly Incarnation.

The immortal's body was already destroyed. He used the last of his Mental Energy to unleash his trump card, causing the Heavenly Incarnation itself to unleash a mental attack. That was what he had been hoping for to kill Krune, having already understood the ways in which Krune's power played.

Honestly, if not for him saving up a Thundercloud Whale, he would have indeed died here. After unleashing his trump card, the immortal was unable to do anything else, having expended all his Mental Energy. Now, he needed a lot of time to recondense a body through his Heavenly Incarnation.

Unfortunately for him, the Mong Realm's Godly Energy was way too thin. With his formation destroyed, the Godly Energy he had accumulated in the region spread out, rapidly thinning in process.

Due to this, he was unable to reform his body. Using this chance, Krune rapidly froze the Heavenly Incarnation, using the Law of Ice to destroy the laws forming it. "Damn you!" The immortal cursed through his Heavenly Incarnation that froze into a gigantic sphere of ice that began to shatter soon after. With a wave of his hand, Krune retracted all the laws that he had unleashed. He didn't wish to leave behind any traces of the Kun Realm Laws here.

Thanks to Kun Soul, it seemed like the laws were the Mong Realm's. But once he left the place, the veil on them would gradually dissipate. In that case, even the Mong Realm Spirit might notice his existence through the Kun Realm laws abruptly appearing in its realm.

That was why he retracted all his laws once he ensured he destroyed the immortal's laws. He then unleashed a fluctuation that traveled through the remainder of the immortal's Heavenly Incarnation, rapidly destroying all his revival means, preventing him from ever reviving.

With that, he was as good as dead.

"That was… dangerous!" Krune gasped for air, slumping on the ground in exhaustion. Even though he had sealed his strength to the Semi-God Realm, the base abilities were stronger than the opponent.

His foundation was more robust as compared to his opponent that was struggling to reach the God Trial Realm.

But instead, when they fought, Krune came close to death once. The reason for this was simple…

A lack of fighting experience!magic

Krune had fought a lot of battles in his life, a variety of them, in fact. But, all his opponents, to date, only cultivated one cultivation path. So, their range of attacks was targeted in only one aspect.

He had fought Zamura for training purposes, but Zamura typically depended on his Godly Energy and Body Cultivation to fight. That experience wasn't enough. Besides, both sides were going all out, not even once. The way they fought in the Kun Realm was like child's play as compared to the Mong Realm immortals.

After all, the cultivators here were trained to fight, which was pretty much what was expected in a warring realm that constantly invaded countless other realms. So, every cultivator had a lot of experience in fights.

Plus, their opponents typically cultivated all three paths. After all, they weren't just targeting undeveloped realms like the Kun and Tilk Realms. But, they were also targeting superior realms like Garg Realm, whose strength, to be frank, was almost on par with the Mong Realm.

Due to this, every single cultivator had a wealth of fighting experience under them. Thanks to that, the immortal quickly saw through Krune's fighting style, preparing countermeasures accordingly.

The fact that he had almost killed Krune displayed how superior his experience was in comparison to Krune. After all, even at the same cultivation base, Krune was way stronger as compared to the immortal.

'Then, what if I fight someone that's as strong as me?' Krune thought, shuddering in response. If he fought a Mong Realm immortal who was as strong as himself, he would definitely die.

His lack of experience would be abused by his opponent, resulting in his quick death.

"But no matter." Krune grinned all of a sudden. "Isn't this why I'm fighting them now?" "There are plenty of lone cultivators in this continent alone." He smiled. "As I continue to fight, I'll be gaining more and more experience."

'And, my clone in the Mountain Sect would transmit all these experiences to the Sect Members, making them live through this battle. This would usher their growth the fastest.' He muttered contently, "Over time, they too would become prepared to fight against the Mong Realm immortals and win in a one-on-one battle."

He then looked around, grinning. "Even though he's a lone cultivator, he was considerably strong. And judging by how he was preparing to reach the God Trial Realm…"

Krune grinned jovially. "His belongings should be stashed nearby. That'll boost my wealth further."

He began to look through the immortal's estate, finding countless Rank 5 Blood Pills and even some rare few Rank 6 Blood Pills. That wasn't all. There were all sorts of herb seeds around, not to mention precious materials that were hard to come across.

Though, Krune paid no attention to the herbs and so-called precious materials. They were precious only in the Mong Realm. They were pretty much commonplace in the Kun Realm. "The Mong Realm has indeed exhausted its foundation to strengthen itself."
