"Eh? Ehh? Ehhh? How come you have nothing on you?" The cultivator was flabbergasted as he was unable to find any item on Krune. It was shocking to see that the person he had been waiting for for two years had evaded while he had trapped someone else.

"So, this person you're trying to search for, what did he look like?" Krune asked calmly.

"He looked just like you…" the cultivator replied.

"I'm not talking about his appearance." Krune shook his head as he clarified, "Tell me about his Godly Energy signature."

"That…" The cultivator looked at Krune for a moment before realizing that the Godly Energy fluctuation he was sensing from Krune was completely different from the person he had been searching for.

In actuality, Krune was his target. When Kirena exited the Misty Plains and began to hunt for every cultivator she could find, he hid deep within the tiny continent using one of his abilities, only surfacing after he was assured that she had left. 

He then waited, having laid a trap all around the Misty Plains. This way, when Krune exited it, he would fall into the trap. 

And…Kirena had also fallen for the trap, getting stuck in it for a couple of days before she broke free. She then raged forth, trying to find the cause. However, since he had been hiding deep within the tiny continent, she was unable to find him. 

Killing a Galki directly increased the comprehension of all the laws in one's Spiritual Incarnation. So, they were tremendously beneficial to him. That's why he camped at the place, waiting for Krune to exit and fall into his trap. 

He was an expert in this field, having confidence in trapping people. That was how he was able to trap even Kirena for two days. 

Now that he had finished searching Krune, he was dejected, understanding that he had trapped the wrong target. 

"I'm sorry, sir. I mistook you for someone else." He cupped his fists in apology, retracting the chains as Krune grunted for a moment, watching his limbs heal automatically. 

Using the Divine Sense Laws, he determined there was nothing amiss in him anymore, nodding. "Thanks for being reasonable. Otherwise, the situation would have turned a bit sticky."

He then said after a moment of thought, "By the way, unless you're really desperate to find this person, I advise you from remaining here. Kirena would return soon enough."

"There isn't anyone here for her to kill…" the cultivator said when he noticed Krune laughed. 

"The last time she entered the Misty Plains, I gave her a pretty good beating. So, she'll soon return for revenge," Krune grinned as he said that. 

"Y-You did what to her?" The cultivator was shocked when he watched Krune's figure vanish from the place, causing him to become afraid. 

He then turned around in a hurry, noticing Krune standing a kilometers away from him, calmly, as if he hadn't even exerted the limit of his power. 

"I've warned you. Take care." Krune waved his hand, summoned his Cloud Whale and zoomed through the air, heading towards the border of the tiny continent.

Upon seeing the familiar Cloud Whale, the cultivator was stunned for a moment before his expression collapsed, "I've been tricked by him. Damn it!"

He stomped the ground in anger before trying to chase after Krune, only now realizing that the Cloud Whale had long since vanished from view. 

He slumped to the ground in defeat, muttering to himself, "With such strength, why did he resort to trickery?"

"It seems my usage of Mental Energy had improved." As the Cloud Whale moved, Krune grinned, looking at the Triple Beast Ring on his hand. He didn't hide it away. In fact, it was in the same place as usual. 

All he did was shield it using Mental Energy, activating an ability to ensure the cultivator wouldn't process the information despite his abilities sensing it numerous times. 

Until now, he had a lot of abilities that allowed him to go beyond his realm and defeat stronger foes. But with that, he realized his flaw. 

He was mostly depending on the fact that his brute force was able to overpower his opponents. But from now onwards, that might no longer be the case. 

Opponents like Kirena might be common. Even if someone wasn't an immortal, they might have remained as a Nascent God for tens of thousands of years. After all, anyone with a Spiritual Incarnation was considered immortal. 

By living a long life, they would have trained endlessly and deepened their comprehension of the laws to a frightening degree. 

So, even if he might be able to overpower his opponents, it would no longer result in his victory. Rather, as his enemies grew increasingly trickier to defeat, he would have to upgrade his skills. 

And Mental Energy was one of those skills. He had barely been using it. So, Krune made it a point to practice further with it and develop more abilities to activate using Mental Energy. 

It was something even ex-Primal Gods like Kirena weren't knowledgeable about. So, it would serve as his trump card against all old monsters.

He had a lot of abilities that either proved redundant now or weren't put to good use. So, before he became an immortal, Krune planned to complete his arsenal of abilities that he would use in various situations. 

"Single-target attacks, all-out attacks, defense, evasion, healing, reconnaissance, and growth. I'll have to finalize the abilities I would use for each part." Krune nodded as he recalled his plan in mind. "This way, I won't use all sorts of abilities and fail to output my true strength."

"My Mental Energy and body cultivation would play a prime role in this," he muttered. "Both of them aren't law-based attacks. So, they have their respective advantages and disadvantages. I should prioritize everything accordingly."

After traveling for quite a while, the Cloud Whale reached the border of the tiny continent as Krune looked at the vacuum of space beyond, where countless spirals of energy and matter swirled, colliding and separating. 

Just the sight of it caused him to shudder. "I'll simply die if I head there. I should find a direction to proceed at first."

Just as he thought of it, Krune was surprised when he noticed the Soul Needle whirring into response.. It meant a treasure was nearby.
