Chapter 1423: Power Structure of the Mong Realm

But that was all they did, just borrowing. In the end, they were using the target's own power, which would be expended upon use.

It wasn't like what Krune achieved in his Realm of Suffering. He was still researching in this direction to see if that was a possibility. Now, he felt hope for its eventuality.

His hope was to recreate the power of his Star Imperial Arms and harness the power of nature in his attacks. Until now, he was using his own power to attack. But if he harnessed the power of nature, his power would be on a whole other level.

He could use the tribulation lightning of nature. And that meant he would be able to attack with power beyond his realm. Even considering their future, if he could harness the power of the Kun Realm itself, he'll be able to go against the champions of other realms.

With that in mind, Krune was able to feel that the three bald brothers had the solution for that to happen. That was why he was sponsoring them.

During the tribulation, the way of the heavens would become more open for them, allowing them to deepen their comprehension. With that, the three bald immortals might strengthen their abilities further.

Krune was hoping that their growth in strength would make it easier for him, allowing him to draw their powers for what he hoped to achieve.

That was why he sponsored them.

Anyway, it didn't matter if they became too powerful. If it seemed like he couldn't kill them, he could just lift his seal. There were plenty of options to deal with them, so he wasn't nervous in the least.

Slowly, after three days passed in such a fashion, the three bald immortals were finally done with their preparations. It had taken them so long because they had selected a foreign land to undergo their tribulation.

As for Krune, he didn't have such problems. All the needs for his breakthroughs were taken care of by the Mountain Sect in terms of resources.

He also broke through atop the Cultivation Lotus, which was the best place to breakthrough. Feifei had created it just for this reason, after all. He always had endless Godly Energy supporting him, along with resources.

Those part of a clan or sect had such advantages.

But for these three bald cultivators, they didn't have such privileges, having to trudge through scrap they had accumulated over the years.

Failure wasn't an option for them. If they failed, they would be bankrupt, having no other means to recover their finances. After all, they would also be significantly injured if they hadn't died already.

And recovering from such injuries would require materials with similar laws as their Spiritual Incarnation. In the Mong Realm, such resources had to be purchased from the organizations responsible for them.

So, there was no option to scour for them out in the open, an option lone cultivators had in the Kun Realm.

'I see.' Krune nodded in thought. 'As the Mong Realm stopped producing any resources, all the resources have to be sourced externally. And due to this, the stronger sects control everything. Due to this, their control over the populace is stronger than what anyone back in the Kun Realm could ever hope to achieve.'

In the Kun Realm, if someone in the Turia Continent didn't like the Mountain Sect, they could just leave the cities and look for resources in the wild. There was plenty of Godly Energy to support their cultivation.

As long as they obtained some beneficial items, they could return to the cities and sell that for God Stones. With that, they could buy all their needs and necessities.

As long as they purchased a Godly Energy gathering formation, they could plant it in the location they had settled in the wilds, allowing them to gather enough Godly Energy to cultivate.

Even though it might be slower than in sects that had gathered all the resources necessary for cultivation, it was still possible to become an expert in this manner.

Even reaching the Primal God Realm wasn't impossible.

But in the Mong Realm, that was pretty much impossible.

The resources required for a breakthrough were hard to come across and had to be scoured manually. And in the case of the three bald immortals, they went from one organization to another, buying the few materials needed to become God Trial Realm cultivators.

After all, resources required by immortals weren't sold to outsiders. Transactions were usually conducted by the sects and clans that had established trade relationships with such organizations.

This way, the clans and sects could exercise firm control over their members. Without obeying them, a cultivator wouldn't be able to grow.

This was how the Mong Realm controlled its experts.

You want resources to cultivate? Sure, if you join the sects and clans.

The Gods would then command the clans and sects to form armies and march forth into foreign realms. If they wanted to prosper, the clans and sects would have to accept such orders. Otherwise, they wouldn't obtain any Blood Pills.

'So, this might be why the Mong Realm isn't producing any resources. The Mong Realm Gods and the Mong Realm Spirit must be in this together.' Krune understood their scheme completely. 'Their objective is to make the Mong Realm stronger. And for that to happen, the entirety of the people should be in the grip of the powerhouses.'

'If even the commoners had access to resources, they'll just work to satisfy their selfish desires and be content with their lives. But now, they have to join the powerful organizations, all of which listen to the Gods.'

"That means" He grinned as he continued, "If resources are produced here, it might cause their structure to collapse automatically."

Now that he had a better understanding of the Mong Realm, Krune began to think of a scheme while watching the three bald immortals begin their breakthrough, observing thunderclouds slowly form in the sky.
