Is that a Wisp?

The boat continued to travel through the void as Krune gradually felt tired, casually returning to his wisp form before sleeping.

Sterlena looked at his sleeping figure, grinning as she patted him once, watching him snuggle upon contact as she smiled in content, sighing as she looked beyond. 'To think there would come a day when I would find solace in a wisp.'

She also began to sleep after some time had passed, wishing to rest first. After returning to the God Realm and having healed her Spiritual Incarnation, she had created a small force of bandits.

The purpose was to have this force help her in the infant supercontinent. However, since they were annihilated by the Abolition Tower's attack, her plans had suffered a major setback. It was pretty emotionally draining for her to start from scratch once again.

'I'm done. I'll stop relying on others.' She sighed, no longer thinking of plans to rely on others. She didn't wish to spend a lot of resources on them just for them to die a futile death. Instead of that, she decided to just use the resources for herself.

'Now, it'll be hard to head into the Principality of Precipice.' She sighed in response. 'I'll have to work something else for that.'

…

Two years since they had begun to travel through the void, Krune and Sterlena had gotten pretty close, constantly bickering like a pair of stray cats as they traveled atop the boat.

During the journey, they shared experiences with one another while slowing down the boat's speed. Krune used the now excess obtained Godly Energy to unleash the development effect to increase the strength of her body.

In exchange, she provided him knowledge and experience in relation to the usage of the Calamity and the Balance Laws.

"I thought that I was the first one to create the Balance Laws." Krune sighed as he thought about it.

"I had the same thought when I also create," Sterlena said. "Then again, the Balance Laws are just a derivative of the Calamity Laws meant to oppose it. So, it's just a natural product that's attained as long as you're talented enough. From the looks of it, not everyone troubled by the Calamity Laws managed to derive the Balance Laws."

"Have you met others?" Krune asked in surprise.

"Nope." Sterlena shook her head, saying, "I've come across some ruins where past experts have left some notes related to this. That's how I came to understand that I wasn't the only one troubled by Little Cally."

There was another reason Krune and Sterlena hit off so well. It was because both of their naming senses were peerless.

On top of that, Krune had been pleasantly surprised at the start to see that in her human form, Sterlena also had... rainbow-colored hair. That was why they hit it off so well.

Their similarities made them feel as if they were real siblings. It was honestly a novel feeling for Krune, making him appreciate the encounter.

"We're here." Sterlena became serious upon gazing at a massive spherical cluster spinning before her.

Swirls of energy swathed out of the spherical cluster, forming tongues of heat and light before coiling around it. An abundance of Godly Energy was being condensed and circulated within the cluster.

The phenomenon caused the hearts of both to thump in increasing intensities. The energy emanating from it was at a level of power that surpassed even a Primal God.

"Even at my peak, I wasn't able to achieve such a display of power," Sterlena muttered as she tried to control her breath.

As for Krune, he was shocked. Had he witnessed such a scene when he was in the Godly Path Realm, he wouldn't have paid it much attention.

But now that his comprehension of the laws has increased, he was actually able to understand the true extent of the power swirling within.

"That's our entrance." Sterlena pointed at a tiny portal that looked no different from a black hole situated at the edge of the cluster, touched by a sliver of energy, fuelling it.

As the boat slowly approached the gate, the hearts of both continued to accelerate as they didn't even breathe, pensive and alert.

The moment a tongue of energy from the cluster blasted out unknowingly, they would be eradicated easily. So, they had to be alert at all times.

Krune had already informed her of a method he had devised to escape the fastest. Since they had practiced it quite a number of times over the past two years, they were ready to do the same in an instant.

Unfortunately for them, trouble always seemed to be brewing along as the cluster emitted a Godly Energy fluctuation, sending out a blast of energy in their way.

"Go!" Krune bellowed at his limit as he condensed the Cloud Whale in its largest form while he and Sterlena returned to their actual forms, shrinking their ethereal forms until only their cores remained behind.

Air Needle!

The Air Needle sent them flying towards the gate when Krune condensed the Cloud Whale once again around them, sending them flying with the Air Needle a second time, accelerating them further.

As they were in the void, they could accelerate without trouble. Upon seeing the energy wave closing in on them, Krune continued to accelerate them while Sterlena used the laws of the wind to compress the wind within the Cloud Whale even more.

This way, the speed at which they traveled soon surpassed the limit that he could sense using his Divine Sense.

Thankfully for them, Sterlena was still able to keep track of things, taking charge of the situation as she directed them, barely managing to enter the gate.

The moment the two cores fell into the gate, the energy wave arrived, destroying the gate itself, passing along casually, as if it was a natural process.

After some time passed, the gate began to form once again. After all, it was a naturally forming location created by the infant supercontinent. So, despite the number of times it was destroyed, it would reform.

Moreover, it seemed that by reforming after destruction, it would grow in strength, repeating the process.

Countless energy fluctuations slammed into it in discrete intervals, destroying the gate from time to time before it reappeared.

After some time passed in such a fashion, a massive ship that spanned for tens of kilometers arrived at the scene and entered the gate.

Similarly, countless other ships had also appeared at sporadic times before entering the gate.
