Chapter 1425 After Three Years  

"Is this all you want to exchange, Sir Pestlor?" The staff from a trading guild asked after looking through ten spatial rings that Krune handed out.

"Yes." Krune nodded in response.

"So, you want to convert them all into Rank 6 Blood Pills?" the staff asked.

"Pretty much." Krune nodded.

"That will be troubling." The staff sighed before saying, "The most we can trade out are Rank 5 Blood Pills. Rank 6 and above won't be given to any outsiders."

"Then, Rank 5 Blood Pills it is." Krune nodded, changing his request.

"Give me a second," the staff said before making a tally as he sent in a report, causing multiple immortals to arrive as they double-checked to ensure the Blood Pills hadn't been tampered with.

They then gave him a spatial ring in return. "There are an equivalent of Rank 5 Blood Pills here. We have to take a small commission fee for this transaction. I hope you understand."

"That's fine." Krune waved his hand, walking away from the trading guild.

He then boarded a teleportation formation, heading towards another continent where he dumped another bunch of low-leveled Blood Pills and exchanged them for Rank 5 Blood Pills.

Surprisingly, he had to change to ten continents before he managed to dump everything in his possession and exchange it for their higher-quality counterparts.

Krune acted this cautiously to ensure none managed to get wind of his actions. This was why he constantly changed places and identities to deposit his Blood Pills.

Of course, that wasn't all. While traveling, in every city he arrived at, he didn't forget to plant his Hunger Law in the bodies of everyone while stealing one percent of their wealth.

Plus, some geniuses among the immortals had the opportunity to be planted with the Heavenly Spark.

Slowly, Krune kept up with the task of the eventual crippling of the Mong Realm.

Since they had a wonderful transportation system, he used the myriad forged identities that he had prepared to travel everywhere, ensuring he left no traces.

Moreover, he always targeted the groups that wouldn't raise the concern of the powerhouses.

Rather, they would be glad for such groups to be weeded out, allowing them to concentrate their resources more on groups under their control and those that would charge out of the Mong Realm into the other realms for their benefit.

It wasn't long before Krune had gone through a dozen continents, having visited all their cities. He only avoided the cities where Primal Gods had been stationed, targeting everything else.

Moreover, sometimes, when he was feeling bold enough, he even targeted the cities with the Primal Gods. After all, it wasn't as if the Primal Gods were monitoring their cities through their Divine Sense all the time.

So, Krune took it as practice to target the people there as well. And that wasn't all. He recalled Sterlena's experiences that he had witnessed, weaving through the memories of the populace in the cities to find the friends and families of the powerhouses, targeting them with both the Hunger Law and the Heavenly Spark.

He only stayed in a city for a day, teleporting to another city the next day. And since he was stealing a lot of fortune all the time, his overall funds only continued to increase at an alarming speed.

Most of all, what was surprising or even scary was the fact that none had even discovered his actions.

Sure, investigations were indeed conducted when someone strong lost one percent of their wealth, which was indeed a large sum. But eventually, it was buried when they weren't able to find anything else.

Discussions indeed sprung up about this topic as, after all, everyone in the city lost one percent of their wealth mysteriously.

Strangely, they stopped investigating it after a while upon hearing that the same thing had happened in other cities too.

But before an investigation had been conducted, Krune had vanished already.

"Phew, that seemed close." He sighed in relief, having subtly influenced the minds of the parties that tried to investigate. This way, they investigated half-heartedly and eventually closed the case for a random reason.

This was what he did at the end of the day in every city. Honestly, it was a bit tiresome, but he had to do what he had to do.

Summoning his Soul Needle, Krune sensed that it was still pointing in the same direction. Other than that, he wasn't able to sense any treasures nearby, not even a single time all along.

There was indeed nothing in the Mong Realm of value other than the cultivators.

Eventually, the time of three years was up, and Krune began to teleport back, going from one continent to another. After a week passed in such a fashion, Krune returned to the original location where they had arrived at the Mong Realm in the first place.

"Krune…!" Sterlena was the first to arrive, waving her hands, seeming a bit tired. "I had to enter dangerous territories to gleam the Laws of the Mong Realm with greater clarity. But now, I managed to obtain a lot of information."

"What about you?" She asked in curiosity.

"I was stealing Blood Pills, infecting the people, and collecting their combat information. I've already relayed everything to the Mountain Sect," Krune said in response. "They're analyzing my experiences and devising combat abilities accordingly to face the Mong Realm cultivators. All the Gods have also chipped in to help accelerate the combat prowess of our realm."

"That only leaves him…" Sterlena muttered, saying in concern. "Honestly, unlike us, Spirit Aberrants aren't built for stealth. They're just natural disasters. So, I worried that he would face a lot of difficulties."

"Did you forget that I spent the majority of my life hiding and chasing after a solution to my race's defect?" Gegrafikan entered the range of her Divine Sense, transmitting the information first before he arrived in person.

He still looked the same as before, but there was a cunning glint in his eyes as Gegrafikan said, "I've determined a method to convert the resources and energy of Mong Realm into the Kun Realm's. "

"Now, we can start harvesting their foundation. There's a secret realm nearby that we can target first."
