Rock fragments of the floating ind soon fell off like andslide, falling into theva streaming on the ground below. It was as if the floating ind was copsing from the inside.


    But in actuality, it was getting destroyed by something, working its way through the interior of the floating ind to break its structure apart. On top of that, everything seemed to be done manually, without any aid from Godly Energy.


    That was why the floating ind couldn''t retaliate. All the particles forming it were dead at present.


    Thanks to the exceptional eyesight of the Escapist, Krune was able to notice everything that urred in the ce from far away.


    There was a demon beast currently rampaging within the floating ind. Surprisingly, it seemed to be exceptionally good at digging, considering the rate at which it moved through the tough rockyyers of the floating ind.


    Followed by blinding light of orange and red, droplets ofva soon sshed out. It seemed that there existedva at the core of the floating ind, protecting something within. The Escapist flew ordingly in the air, positioning itself above a certain tunnel the perpetrator had dug.


    Through this, it managed to see everything that was happening inside. ws shaped like a mole, a body of a serpent, the whiskers of a cat, and the scales of a lizard, at first nce, one might assume it to be a dragon.


    But upon closer look, it didn''t have the elegance nor the absolute might and authority of one. It was a type of demon beast Krune hadn''t heard of before. Currently, the demon beast hadtched onto theva within the floating ind, striking it with its ws.


    Theva sshed out as something within seemed to be moving. From time to time, the fins of something peaked out of theva before swiftly disappearing. The demon beast seemed to be aiming for it from the start.


    It couldn''t directly enter theva, for that would damage itself. So instead, it grabbed hold of the surrounding rocks, ones that had been facing the heat of theva for ages, and adapted ordingly.


    Using such rocks, it attacked theva, causing it to spill out. The demon beast was in a hurry, but its actions were anything but hurried. It continuously attacked theva, spilling it out, forming ripples that disturbed its flow, causing the entity within to appear on the surface from time to time.


    Every time this happened, the demon beast would try to snatch it but would always fail. Hours passed in such a fashion as finally, the entity within peaked out more than usual, thanks to a change in the rippling of theva.


    The abrupt jerk caused it to miscalcte, making ite out of theva surface to an extent greater than before. The demon beast naturally didn''t miss the opportunity, iling arge piece of rock it had shaped into a spoon.


    It inserted it timely into theva and made a fierce scoop to the top, hitting the entity along the way. The entity lost its grip on theva and was sent flying out from the attack. The moment it appeared, Krune was surprised.


    For some reason, it wasn''t a living entity. Instead, it was a rock figure, but wasn''t shaped like a humanoid this time. It was shaped more like a serpent. Moreover, condensed in its center was a cluster of rocks that faintly glowed. They seemed different from the rest.


    The rock cluster was shaped into a sphere, outlining a faint design. But, thanks to his vantage point, Krune could immediately guess what the design was. It was the diagram of the floating ind.


    Just that alone was enough for him to guess that the rock cluster sphere was the core of the floating ind or the reason why it was floating in the first ce.


    All along, he was intensely staring at the tablet while observing the actions of the demon beast.


    The demon beast then ripped out the rock cluster sphere and stored it in its storage ring, immediately causing the floating ind to destabilize. It then began to copse as boulders of rock fell into the sea ofva below, causing loud sshes.


    "So you''re Grancey," Krune muttered as he chuckled, understanding the method to amass Godly Points. Without making any contact, the Escapist soon turned around and flew away.


    After obtaining the core of the floating ind, the demon beast jumped and escaped the falling rocks, shrugging off some that were leaching Godly Energy from its body. By returning to its human form, Grancey used the difference in size to escape from getting attached to the rocks.


    She had been operating on the floating ind for quite some time already. So, the faint Godly Energy emissions she was releasing while moving had already caused some of the soil around her to turn alive. They immediatelytched onto her demon beast form and began to suck out her Godly Energy.


    But as she was concentrating on taking the floating ind core, she couldn''t distract herself. That was why, the moment she obtained it, she returned to her human form and flew away, watching the tiny sentient rock figures il in vain as they plummeted into the sea ofva.


    Attached on her back was what seemed to be a piece of equipment, one specifically designed for flight. It was simr to a pair of wings but seemed to be lodged into her flesh and was connected to her meridians.


    This way, they allowed her to fly without emitting any Godly Energy. Then again, there were considerable emissions whenever she moved. It wasn''t the perfect solution to the ce, but it was enough. Grancey swerved her head, immediately noticing a demon beast flying away from her.


    She frowned as she muttered to herself, "Was it spying on my actions all along?"


    For a moment, she wanted to chase and corner the opponent. But, upon seeing the flight speed of the other party, she frowned, soon saying, "Leave it, I can''t waste that much time and energy. Besides…"


    She summoned her tablet, looking at her score as she soon said to herself, "Matternock and Stockpil, just how are they able to obtain these so fast? Especially this Matternock guy, he''s quite the fearsome individual."


    "She didn''t give chase." Krune smiled as the head, formed by morphing the Escapist''s tail, reverted to its original appearance as a tail. It had morphed to look at the actions of the other party.


    "Now that I know what to do." Krune chuckled, ying catch with the Pestlor before saying, "I still have 18 days."


    "Time to earn some Godly Points."


    …


    There was a certain floating ind, rather tiny, spanning 300 meters in radius. It was peacefully floating, devoid of any signs of life. On its surface was a small hill, almost considered a mound. It was only 60 meters in height.


    Suddenly, arge shadow cast on it as a massive pir mmed into it from above. The cause of that shadow was none other than Krune. After flying up as far as he could, reaching a height of one kilometer from the floating ind, Krune soon took out the Pestlor.


    The weapon spirit immediately took action, infusing all its Godly Energy into it, expanding it to a length of 80 meters. It was the current limit for its cultivation base. Nevertheless, even though it was tremendously massive, the weight it possessed was beyond what the weapon spirit, Krune, and all his clonesbined could handle.


    So they just dropped it, watching the Pestlor fall in a straight line. Since its front was the mortar, it was incredibly heavy. With that, it made a beeline towards the target, unwavering even the slightest.


    There was a distance of a kilometer, so it elerated to a tremendous extent. A clone trailed along by grabbing onto its end, intending to act after the Pestlor made contact. As for the weapon spirit, it retreated into the weapon.


    The Pestlor was aimed towards one side of the floating ind. At the very moment the Pestlor crashed into it, the force of the impact caused cracks to form all along its surface while the impacted section broke downpletely and fell like a waterfall into theva below.


    The Pestlor also slid off and began to fall towards the sea ofva when the weapon spirit rapidly absorbed all the Godly Energy in it, shrinking it quickly. Even then, it took almost four seconds, which was also by the time it had almost reached the sea ofva.


    The clone began to pull it up the moment its weight began to decrease. This was the reason the Pestlor hadn''t plunged into theva yet. The moment it became small enough, the subspace appeared inside the clone.


    The clone stored the Pestlor inside it as the subspace disappeared, reappearing inside Krune. Krune took it out as the weapon spirit expanded it to the limit once again, dropping it towards the floating ind.


    Another clone apanied its fall while the first clone began to fly up.


    They had basically formed an assembly line of carnage.


    As the Pestlor fell, Krune positioned himself above the next ce of attack. In this manner, he slowly chipped outrge blocks of the floating ind, soon only leaving behind the sphere ofva. He hadpletely chipped out all the rocks surrounding it.


    A clone—having transformed into the Pestlor''s weapon spirit—carried the Pestlor and expanded it to a length of 8 meters. This was a size that it could control to a fair extent. The clone then swung it, sshing some of theva along the edges.


    The ssh caused theva to spill out of the sphere. Once it did so, it was acted upon by gravity and fell to the bottom, plunging into the sea ofva. The clone looked at Pestlor, swinging it in the air a couple of times to rid of all theva covering its end.


    It then noticed that though the Pestlor did take some material damage, it wasn''t much. A minute influx of Godly Energy repaired all the damage instantly. Also, thanks to its properties, not even a tinge of Godly Energy was emitted in the process.


    Then, as if spurred by adrenaline, the clone jabbed the sides of theva sphere with the Pestlor, nicking it little by little, soon reducing it to the extent that a portion of the entity''s body in the center was visible.
