The item spirit was shaped like a humanoid rock figure. It was a meter in height, holding the forged item in its hand. The finished version was only 50 centimeters in length and barely weighed a kilogram.


    With that, it was pretty easy to handle. The item spirit held it and waved it a couple of times, causing faint winds to emanate. At the very moment he saw its actions, Krune smiled. Surprisingly, it didn''t release any Godly Energy while moving.


    Instead, it seemed to have the same trait as the item. So, any traces of Godly Energy around it was automatically absorbed into itself, including its emissions. This way, it didn''t emit any Godly Energy, the perfect aplice in the region.


    As he gazed at it, Krune couldn''t help but break intoughter. After all, the moment he looked at it, thews in his body stirred up as the 3D model of the item spirit appeared in his mind. With it, he could make his Pseudo-Wisps assume the item spirit''s appearance.


    This way, he was better prepared to fight in the region. The item spirit was shaped like a rock giant. Even though that was the case, it did have a pair of wings attached to it, ones that seemed to have been formed by a film of water or something resembling water.


    The wings did seem delicate, but they were also capable of lifting it enough for a short distance flight. It was quite impressive. The item spirit disappeared as Krune held the item in his hand, unleashing some Godly Energy.


    Being infused with Godly Energy, the item increased in size immediately. Though, it didn''t have any mechanism to give the Godly Energy back to him. With that, the only option was for the ring spirit to absorb the Godly Energy and shrink the item back to its original size.


    After a moment of thought, Krunemunicated with the item spirit, making it expend its Godly Energy to increase the size of the item. It worked the same, albeit a tad slower than if he had used his Godly Energy.


    On top of that, it had a limit since it was a newly formed item spirit and was only in the Godly Fusion Realm cultivation-wise. So, the amount of Godly Energy it could give was limited. Though, upon amand from Krune, the item spirit absorbed all the Godly Energy from the item, causing it to shrink back to its original size.


    As he repeated the same thing a couple of times, Krune observed all the details about it, nodding in delight as he thought, ''It can increase in size while its weight and material strength also increase ordingly. In short, the bigger it is, the fewer chances for it to be damaged.''


    Krune wielded it as he swung it a couple of times, feeling that it was rather convenient to use. The handle was the pestle, while the mortar was the attacking zone. It was a blunt weapon. Considering his character and the fact that he had been using shields all his life, this blunt weapon was preferablepared to sharp weapons like swords, spears, etc.


    Plus, its design did suit his tendencies. The pestle and mortar were attached to create the ridiculous-looking item in his hands. Nevertheless, its might was guaranteed. Even though the materials making it up weren''t anything great, they would do for now.


    As long as he wielded it while making it as big as possible, it wouldn''t be damaged as easily. That was one advantage that came with the item. As he used it for a couple of minutes, Krune said with a tone of praise, "Since I created this by attaching the pestle and mortar together, I''ll call this the Pestlor. Hmm, not to praise myself, but my naming sense has improved a lot recently, right guys?"


    He looked around, looking at the wriggling stomach muscles of the clone, chuckling embarrassedly. After all, all of them were himself. There wouldn''t be any difference in opinion. If he thought the name was cool, the same implied to all the clones inhabited by fragments of Little Krune.


    Now that its equipment spirit was created, the Pestlor was under his control. Otherwise, it would only be growing in size by absorbing Godly Energy. This was the reason he worked furiously to awaken it all along.


    Now that his n worked, Krune was just about to begin working on a simr armor when another thought struck him, making him recall the teleportation formation in his subspace. "Right, no matter what, this item''s base materials are inferior. If I''m not careful, it''ll shatter one day or another. So…"


    Divine Sense!


    Mental Energy Scan!


    Krune focused the entirety of his sensory abilities on the Pestlor, making the weapon spirit absorb all the excess energy and prevent the weapon from expanding in size. Through this, his senses swerved throughout it, making a note of all thews in ce.


    Most of them were tiny fragments present in the base materials. The remainder were those forming the rocks in the region, Epic Hell. He couldn''tprehend them outside since doing so would awaken them.


    But now, he could sense thews in them. After all, the weapon spirit was already under his control. It seemed rather pleased to be with Krune thanks to his zealous efforts in awakening it. So, it was adamant in helping Krune. Besides, it could also sense the passion in his gaze, realizing his ardent wish to elevate its potential.


    With that, it helped him understand everything there was to know about itself and the weapon it was birthed from. Krune spent another month meditating,prehending everything about Pestlor.


    The basews from the materials were already well within hisprehension levels. So, what Krune had been focusing on was thews in the rock that he had fused into the Pestlor.


    ''Thankfully, all the rtedws are in my Spiritual Incarnation, and I have surface-levelprehension of them all,'' Krune smiled as he thought, feeling a bit shocked at the fact such simplews could result in such an outstanding effect.


    Though, as heprehended more of it, he realized the cause for the soil, rocks, andva in Epic Hell to act as viruses wasn''t because of thesews. Rather, it seemed to be some specific arrangement done in the Sub-Realm itself.


    So, even when the piece of rock is taken out of the Sub-Realm, it wouldn''t act as a virus. Rather, it would lose that mysterious property and turn into a regr rock. After understanding it, Krune began to seriouslyprehend all thews in it, ignoring everything else, for that matter.


    He knew his priorities. Even if he were to make a move now, he didn''t have any means against the terrain. So, he was bound to simply waste his Godly Energy and suffer losses one after another. Instead of that, he was rather interested in seeing the development of his current project.


    After all, he was in this for the experience. He did have interest in the treasures, but based on his thoughts, Krune determined that if what he had thought of seeded, he would have considerable gains. With that in mind, he was willing to spend enough time and effort on that.


    Even if it didn''t seed, he was learning a lot in the unique environment. That, too, was beneficial for his growth. So, Krune was neither worried nor in a hurry. He took his time to go through his thoughts.


    "Something in this region is making everything here behave like viruses. So, this must be the only ce where such a phenomenon is effective," Krune muttered as he retracted his gaze, having finishedprehending everything there was to know about the Pestlor.


    He had spent a total of three monthsprehending alone. This was considering the fact he was aided by all the Little Krune fragments, except for the one that was controlling the clone—the colossal bird-type demon beast in whose stomach he was present.


    Now that he was ready, Krune summoned the weapon spirit, making it hover right next to him as he clutched the Pestlor. He then took in a deep breath as a Pseudo-Wisp flew out from the subspace and dissolved into his godly meridians, giving him a major boost in his Godly Energy reserves.


    Five clones then appeared beside him, surrounding the Pestlor. All of them kept their hand on it, grabbing hold of it at various ces. At the same time, all their hands melted as the weapon spirit emitted some Godly Energy, activating the effects of the weapon in its entirety.


    Multi-Land Incarnation!


    Apanied by the Godly Energy that was being absorbed into the Pestlor, the rtedws suitable to it were also being absorbed from their Land Incarnation. All thews suitable to it flowed into the Pestlor, subtly changing its insides, raising the concentration of thews inside it.


    Before, thews were of inferior quality and quantity. Moreover, they were mostly fragmented since the materials forming the shields he used made up the Pestlor. Now, simrws congregated all over the Pestlor, raising its quality as a whole.


    As it absorbed the Godly Energy he supplied, the weapon''s property was activated, bing bigger in size. It absorbed the Godly Energy and created matter. And, as the concentration of thews inside had increased, the quality of matter it created increased as well.


    Immediately, the weapon spirit converted the matter back into energy. But this time, it focused on the parts of the weapon that were made by the fragmentedws, breaking them down into Godly Energy. As it absorbed them, Krune infused even more Godly Energy into it, seeping in the necessaryws to fill in the void.


    What he was doing here was an advanced mode of forging, recing inferior particles with their respective superior versions. He had obtained insight into it after seeing Cultivator awaken the equipment spirit of that special hilt.


    After a month had passed in such a fashion, Krune stopped as he sighed. His melted body reformed itself back into his humanoid form. The other clones, too, soon returned to his subspace. Heaving a sigh of relief, Kruneughed boisterously, feeling excited at the improvement in his cksmithing abilities.


    In his hands was an entirely upgraded Pestlor, one that was suitable to be wielded by the current him. Thanks to its property, he could always upgrade it simrly whenever he wished. Even though he had consumed ten Pseudo-Wisps and a period of six months in total from forging topletion, Krune waspletely satisfied.


    "Now, I have a weapon suitable to use in this region. My hunt starts now." He chuckled once, feeling the higher quality of the Pestlor.
