Is that a Wisp?

The Bolg Realm was indeed lacking in a lot of areas. In response, the Kun Realm planned to fill them all up and then help birth more Gods, thereby elevating its foundation higher.

Feifei's task was to create cultivation techniques for the Bolg Realm immortals, allowing them to cultivate all three paths. Basically, her task was to establish Soul and Body Cultivation in the Bolg Realm.

Her helpers were Soren and Wally. In the meantime, Zamura worked on upgrading their weapons using the latest techniques researched by the Kun Realm after transactions regarding the various techniques with countless other realms.

This was what the Kun Realm was doing the most. They were buying information, techniques, Godly Abilities, etc., from every single realm, researching upon the ingenuity of the various realms to adapt them to their own.

As for the payment?

Heh!

Gegrafikan converted the resources obtained from the Soul Trading Hub's tax into the power structure of other realms, using that to transact.

This meant that even when someone investigated, they would never realize that one of the major transactors using the Soul Trading Hub was the Kun Realm. But through this conversion, every time they transacted, they posed as Gods from other realms.

It was a solid plan that allowed them to remain concealed while the actions of others could be discovered to a certain extent based on the resources they sold.

After all, either through the power system or the type of unique resource they sold, the source realm could be easily identified.

The Kun Realm was the only one with the advantage here, thanks to Gegrafikan.

With that, all the purchased information ended up with Feifei, the Spirit Deity that worked on improving their abilities as a whole.

Any idea they obtained, they approached her to develop that idea further, rapidly skipping centuries of research.

The more she used her abilities in various forms and factors, the greater her growth. So, what would happen if she did the same for others as well? Her growth would be faster.

In this manner, every God of the Kun Realm had their respective advantage. And to use that, they had to 'help' other realms.

The Bolg Realm was the first in line to experience this. Well, now that they had pledged their loyalty to the Kun Realm, things could be kicked up a notch.

Their plans transpired like this: First, they would develop the Bolg Realm's Body and Soul Cultivation, strengthening them as a whole. Second, they would train the immortals to bring more Primal Gods to the peak.

Third, Zamura would take action on their Realm Core to gradually birth a Realm Spirit, no matter how weak it was. Taking advantage of its birth, the Primal Gods at the peak would initiate their final tribulation to become Gods en masse, rapidly raising the Bolg Realm's foundation.

Following that, they would become training partners for the Kun Realm.

And here was where something intricate lay. The Kun Realm had attained the status as a Greater Realm. Meaning, they could actually take in Vassal Realms.

In other words, once the Bolg Realm declared their loyalty, they would be considered a Vassal Realm to the Kun Realm. Basically, even though they still exercised their sovereignty, they had to follow orders from the Kun Realm to a certain extent.

And this was established between their Realm Spirits themselves. So, even if the Bolg Realm Gods wished to break free in the future, it wouldn't be possible as their Realm Spirit itself obeyed orders from Turia.

There was one major tangible benefit to this: a show of authority.

And this show of authority was only effective for Greater Realms. The greater the number of Vassal Realms under them, the greater their authority in the politics of the Greater Universe.

On an internal scale, the laws of the Kun Realm itself would be mildly strengthened as a result. In other words, the greater the number of Vassal Realms under them, the greater the strengthening of their own laws.

For example, there was a Fire God in the Bolg Realm. After they became a Vassal Realm, the God's Fire Law would mildly reinforce the Kun Realm's Fire Law. Thus, the Kun Realm's Fire God would become stronger.

In any case, the one that obtained the greatest reinforcement through the Vassal Realm was Krune.

After all, tribulation lightning was the principal foundation present in every single realm and one of their greatest and most innate Laws.

So, it was a direct boost to his strength. And it was in this manner that Krune wished to grow stronger as a Champion, enough to face the Champions of other Greater Realms on his own.

Such was politics. With that being said, Krune's intelligence, under constant pressure, gradually began to shine more and more as he let go of any and all inhibitions.

All the Greater Realms had begun their hunt for Vassal Realms, but the one that quickly gained success in this endeavor the most was the Kun Realm.

The conditions they proposed, the formless threat that they possessed but never had to use, and the way they had initiated diplomatic talks, with also the promise of protection using a Spatial Storm Barrier, it was odd if the approached realms wouldn't give in.

It was like the situation on Earth where the countries with nuclear arms were waging war. The country similar to Kun Realm would approach a weak country that wasn't able to protect its borders, giving them funds to develop, technology to do so, and the necessary knowledge and skilled workers to achieve it.

Not only that, but they were also given a country-wide barrier that would shield them from nukes. So, why would the weaker countries refuse such an offer? Especially when aware that if they offended this country, they might suddenly see a nuke appear mysteriously in the middle of their capital?

The Kun Realm's policies were the exact reflection of that, a reason they managed to obtain five Vassal Realms in the span of three thousand years. Starting with the Bolg Realm, their Vassal Realms included the Ketu Realm, the Wald Realm, the Stupha Realm, and the Kulti Realm.

Five Vassal Realms in the span of three thousand years was a terrifying feat, given how the second place was taken by the Garg Realm, having obtained three Vassal Realms, with the first among them being the Zen Realm, a realm they had obtained the loyalty of a long time ago.

The Mong Realm had only obtained one Vassal Realm to date, while the TTT had yet to get one.
