Chapter 1377 Overwhelming Workload
Swish!
A massive waterfall emitted rumbling sounds as it cascaded into the lake below. But, there were two shocking points here.
First was how the peak of the waterfall began from the clouds. It was actually the rain that was concentrated on one spot that they formed a waterfall instead. And as for the clouds, they seemed too vast, constantly continuing to form as they never dissipated or decreased in size.
The second shocking point was the lake that wasn't on the ground but floated in the air. It was a massive column of water that began from a hundred meters above the ground surface and reached a height of three hundred meters.
The water from the waterfall continued to fall into it as countless streams spread out from this lake. And yes, all the streams were in the air.
This was the trait inherent to the Turia Supercontinent. All the water streams were in the air and traveled throughout the continent, forming massive networks.
They were like walls in the air that divided the supercontinent into different regions. And from time to time, rain fell over from these river streams onto the ground.
This unique dynamic caused the birth of a lot of demon beasts suitable to live in such environments.
And the source of all this water was this massive waterfall.
The waterfall wasn't just a flat curtain but actually formed a circle. And, behind this curtain, spanning the inner area of the circle, was a piece of flatlands.
It was an odd contrast as there were no clouds above within this circle. And here stood a massive structure in the air—The Mountain Sect!
The lake surrounding this region was named the Doldak Lake, and the falls the Doldak Falls.
The place where the Mountain Sect was situated was sunny as the size of the Sect itself had begun to increase from its initial radius of 100 kilometers.
Krune and Zamura had been working on it tirelessly to upgrade it, allowing it to expand in strength automatically according to the population increase of the Sect members.
They installed a formation to dictate this, leaving everything else to the Sect's Guardian Spirit.
And thanks to Doldak Lake and the countless streams spreading forth from it, the Mountain Sect had vast channels to travel and reach all corners of the supercontinent. After all, the river streams weren't affected by the nature of the habitat they flowed through.
This meant that they had a consistent travel route.
After all, the means to travel in a desert region, a region with terrible winds, falling rocks, etc., differed. Cautious methods had to be taken care of while the route wouldn't be accessible all the time.
And it wasn't something one could brute force their way through. After all, this wasn't a continent but a supercontinent. Here, there existed environments that could injure even Primal Gods.
And hence, these streams were of great importance. With that, the Monster Geckos could use them to speedily travel and reach all corners of the supercontinent.
It had been ten years since the Turia Supercontinent had finished forming. In this decade, the sect members of the Mountain Sect had been busy collecting data in regards to the Turia Supercontinent, not to mention laying out plans for various cities and settlements.
It wasn't just a simple task of erecting buildings and calling it a day. There were logistics involved regarding everything.
After all, they also had to create a hierarchy where the sect members would be stationed as authorities in the respective cities, taking care of its various needs and performing the tasks assigned by the Mountain Sect.
As they were the ruling power, the fate and livelihood of everyone on this supercontinent were in their hands.
Every immortal in the Mountain Sect was so busy that they weren't even able to spend a moment to take in a breather. They were overworked to the extent that fumes began to flow out of their heads.
Thankfully, they used their Mental Energy to persist with the task, performing their duties to their utmost.
Even the silly wisps had no time to engage with their race's innate silliness, being buried with work to the extent they wished to commit suicide and revive as mortals to escape work.
Actually, Krune had thought of doing that countless times. After all, adding on his thousands of clones, the amount of workload he could shoulder was the highest. It was overwhelming his mind so much that a thousand clones were only focused on cultivating to use Mental Energy and heal his mind.
After all, with their shared thoughts, it was like a network as the volume of information shared between everyone was overwhelming everyone. With that, this helped them as the subspace constantly moved from the bodies of the clones one after another as the clones cultivating within instantly used their Mental Energy to heal the mind of the respective clone.
This was how they managed to prevent their minds from collapsing.
Plus, it wasn't possible for Krune to escape from this task. It wasn't like any other Elders were forcing him or anything. They didn't even have the time to care if he escaped from the scene.
But, the reason persisted with the burden was for his desires alone. There were tens to thousands of habitats and cities being constructed in such habitats.
This was not to mention the various establishments being erected there, not to mention the roles of the logistics involved. Everything had to be drafted. And that means… a gold mine of potential things that he could name.
This was the true reason Krune endured the burden. As long as he could name everything, he would be content.
And to dutifully harness his abilities…to make him feel happy, Zamura gave permission for Krune to name everything.
That was pretty much why their work was proceeding at such a fast pace. Otherwise, without Krune, they would have taken ten times the duration to achieve what they had currently done.
The clones were also able to swim through the streams faster than their flight speed, allowing them to travel to every region of the supercontinent the fastest.
And this allowed Krune to first notice the bizarre regions that had formed. "Wait, why are the regions of the supercontinent reflecting our abilities?"
That was what Krune felt, gazing at a region where Mental Energy was being emitted naturally.
