Chapter 1268: The Gate Opens

"It does feel strange to hear about him like that," Krune replied, unable to control himself any longer as he also burst out into laughter.

"Well, there's no questioning his strength. But…" Sterlena was unable to control herself, collapsing to the ground as she burst out laughing. "Wally had done this while as a Primal God. And worst of all, he didn't even pick that law to become a God."

"It's like the seat of the God is vacant, but the door to it is being blocked," she continued. "So, you can imagine his frustration. His original seat is vacant, but he can never reclaim it since his comprehension never exceeded Wally's."

The two shared a good laugh for a while after that, feeling like a heavy weight was lifted off their shoulders. 

Leaning on the wall, Sterlena groaned as she told Krune, "My trial was such a pain, you know? It was a world in which even grass didn't grow. On top of that, the only source of food was from a mysterious monster that ate the dirt and laid hundreds of eggs every day. People there were hunters with a high fatality rate."

"Most of them were small tribes with at most a thousand in number." She sighed. "Plus, these monsters protect their eggs pretty well, preventing them from being stolen. On top of that, once the baby monsters hatch, they would hunt the humans to feed upon."

"So, people lived in constant fear and hunger, never having enough food to eat or water to drink. The egg yolk was the only fluid they had for sustenance. There were no water sources. So…" She let out yet another sigh as she continued, "Every tribesman were only skin and bones, with most dying around the age of twenty."

"Then, how did you resolve their sufferings? How many reincarnations did it take?" Krune asked. 

"I reincarnated 19 times. The longest I lived in one reincarnation was 2 years while the oldest I ever grew up there was to the age of 12," she replied. "In every reincarnation, I investigated into the monsters, their biology, their habits, as well as the way their body worked."

"Eventually, I found a method to transplant the organs from a hatchling monster into our own. This way, we were also able to eat the soil and digest it," she said, laughing in the end. 

"What power and item did you pick?" Krune asked. "Were they suitable to be used in your world?"

"The power I picked was Divine Sense, of course." Sterlena laughed. "Because, no matter what situation you're in, Divine Sense is the most versatile, allowing us to perform various feats."

"But without cultivation, how can you even use it?" Krune was confused when Sterlena smiled, taking out a lamp from her storage ring. 

"I call it the Godly Incubator." Sterlena smiled as she explained, "I had created this item in the past just for fun. It has a tremendous reserve of Godly Energy within it. Its function is to create meridians in people and improve them."

"Also, when you break down Godly Energy into Spiritual Energy, you get a nigh inexhaustible resource," she continued. "That was more than enough for me to condense a set of meridians in myself each time and cultivate to a suitable cultivation base. Using Divine Sense, I researched into things and found the solution."

"But the operation alone isn't a solution, right? It's not easy to perform," Krune refuted.

"Indeed." Sterlena nodded in response. "So, my research continued further until those implanted with this monster organ were able to create a new organ in their bodies. This new organ was like a seed that would take root in their stomach before growing into the organ, allowing them to grow up healthy without any risk of operation."

"Plus, it took a couple of months to condense a seed per person. So, the tribe I was from managed to condense the organ in their bodies pretty quickly. From there, they spread around, giving the seeds to other tribes, allowing them to gain the monster organ as well."

"Surviving against the monsters was still tough, but as they were able to consume the soil, they became healthier and stronger over time, able to defend themselves better," she said. "With the prime suffering of that world being hunger and fear, I pretty much resolved hunger with this organ. As for fear…"

"Well, that took a lot of time and effort." She sighed before asking, "Tell me about your experience now."

Krune started with his life as Su Zixin, recounting everything he experienced. Sterlena listened to everything with rapt attention, praising his actions from time to time, getting emotional upon hearing his painful experiences, even raging at the enemies he faced. 

By the time he finished speaking, Sterlena was silent, only commenting after a long time had passed, "In your trial, the concept of suffering was more obscure and unclear. And, only at your death, the action of you dying was what achieved your victory."

"That's cutting it close, especially since a century is the limit to every trial." 

"A century? What happens if I fail to clear before that?" Krune asked, confused. "How did you figure this out?"

"I interrogated the Land Spirit…" Sterlena coughed, nonchalantly continuing forth, "If you fail to clear before the time limit of a century, you'll just become a permanent resident of that world. So, when your time is up in that place, you'll die a natural death."

"The moment this happens, your Land Incarnation and other backup plans in the God Realm would become erased automatically. So, you'll never revive," she concluded.

"Thankfully, I cleared it." Krune smiled.

Time passed in such a fashion as they talked and exchanged information related to their comprehension of the Calamity and Balance Laws. Days turned into years, and eventually, a century had passed.

The number of people on the plains had increased quite a lot as more and more cleared their trials. 

And now, followed by a great rumble, the mountainous door opened, causing a swirl of Godly Energy to gush out and slam into everyone, throwing them off for dozens of kilometers deeper into the plains. 

"Storage rings would work in the core. So…" Kirena whispered, "The moment we enter it, let's forge some first. It'll be easier to store any items within them. We'll worry about bringing them out of the infant supercontinent after that."

"Alright, leave the forging to me.." Krune nodded as the two began to run towards the opening door, sensing the concentration of Godly Energy continuing to increase.
