Chapter 1184: The Wang Family’s Circumstances

'My current state is better than Su Zixin. Does the level of suffering change from every reincarnation? Or will I be able to improve my situation somehow?' Krune thought, patting Wang Hao as he told him, "Grandpa is fine. Now get some rest. We'll talk in the morning."

"Alright!" Now that he was assured his grandpa was feeling alright, Wang Hao fell asleep. 

Their bed wasn't anything fancy. They didn't even have a cot. What they called their bed was just a bag of cloth stuffed with hay, allowing them to sleep. As for their blanket, Krune brushed his hand over it, feeling countless signs of stitching. 

It was apparent that they hadn't changed the blanket and had been mending the tears all along. At present, it was more akin to a colorful rag. 

As it was the middle of the night, Krune was unable to see anything, even after his eyes had adjusted to the dark. There was just no source of light within the house. 

He then gently opened the window, allowing the moonlight to cast within, using it to observe the interior of the house. 

Even though he knew how it was thanks to the memories of Wang Hu, Krune still wished to see it once. There was nothing in the house except for a trunk on one corner. In it were their clothes and some miscellaneous items. 

Near it was a pile of wood used as fuel to cook. There were a couple of worn-out utensils placed in another trunk nearby. As for food provisions, there was just a couple of dried rice wrapped in a dried leaf, placed atop the trunk. 

It was Wang Hao's fruit of labor. That was how he sustained himself while nursing his grandpa back to health. 

Krune's gaze finally fell on Wang Hao's face, tearing up immediately. Bluish eyes, swollen face, signs of wounds everywhere on his limbs. It was apparent that he hadn't had a good time all along. 

"Don't worry, I'll ensure that you'll have a good life." Krune clenched his hand into a fist. As he had inherited everything from Wang Hu, he currently considered Wang Hao as his own grandson. 

It also allowed him to understand the dangers of the Principality of Precipice, commonly called the Zone of Suffering. 

At present, his mind consisted of three egos. The dominant one was, of course, Krune's original ego. The remaining two consisted of the egos of Su Zixin and Wang Hu. As everything that was theirs had now become his, Krune's decision-making was influenced accordingly. 

Wang Hu was currently in his early seventies. Before his death, Su Zixin was in his fifties. Just their combined experience almost reached half of Krune's lifespan. So, the extent of influence they had on him was tremendous. 

If he didn't do anything, it would cause his cultivation to go bonkers in the future. After all, for every situation, each ego would wish to solve it accordingly. It would stall his decision-making skills and pretty much complicate things further. 

'If I had known the sufferings in this place was like this, I wouldn't have come here in the first place.' He frowned in worry. Moreover, he was unable to sense his body or even his clones that were kept safe in the Mountain Sect by Zamura.

At present, wherever he was consisted of his entire self. It was a baffling feeling, causing him to feel bouts of fear. 

Krune then peered out the window, looking at a dilapidated street devoid of any human beings. A single glance was enough to understand that the village wasn't well off. Thanks to the recent bandit attack, they had been forced into a corner. 

A cold gust of wind caused him to tremble as Krune closed the window, sighing as he thought, 'Now, I should determine my powers. As Su Zixin, I didn't have the leeway to do so. My death came too fast.'

Thinking as such, Krune willed for his power to materialize, noticing that he was facing a hard time as the sense of exhaustion in his body was increasing. Eventually, he managed to condense his ability.

Cloud Whale!

Though, unlike the one he created before, the current Cloud Whale only spanned the length of his palm. On top of that, it was soft to the touch, looking like even he would be able to deform it if he clenched it hard enough. 

'Indeed, as I had feared, it had been heavily nerfed.' Krune sighed. At first, when the strange entity told him to select an ability and an item, he had thought of selecting the Ocean Heart first. 

The Ocean Heart was a reservoir of energy. Even if it was heavily nerfed, it would still be an extra reservoir of energy. Moreover, it companied with the healing and development effect. Just that alone would allow him to heal from his injured state and even grow stronger in the future. Albeit, this would take a lot of time, and the effect wouldn't be that substantial. 

It would have allowed him to recover from sufferings slowly. Though, he finally decided against it. That was because of just one reason: Efficiency after it was nerfed!

The healing effect would only be mildly superior to a human body's natural recovery. As for the development effect, it wouldn't result in anything. At most, it would allow one to have the strength of a bulky human while possessing a leaner frame. 

However, to attain that would take years. It wasn't good enough. As for any abilities related to Godly Energy, he couldn't use them as a mortal, so he didn't even bother to consider them. 

His choices were only among the active and passive abilities. After considering them all, he selected the Cloud Whale. 

It was because of two reasons. The Cloud Whale was the most energy-efficient. Its presence alone inhibited a person's killing intent. It also caused the minds of people to relax, preventing any chaos and heated discussions from happening. 

And finally, the Air Needle. This was a power it exhibited by compressing the surrounding air before unleashing the pressurized air in the form of a needle. It was a flying creature. 

All in all, even when nerfed, it was by far the most useful among all his abilities. Thinking as such, he used it to unleash an Air Needle, surprised at the power it exhibited, noticing a tiny hole form on the ground.. 'If they aren't protected by armor, the Air Needle can kill them if I target their vital areas.'
