Chapter 274: Elemental Flowers.
Another 4 months went by.
Today, Krune was in a field while looking at another 21 wisps. They all had cultivations between the Early and Late stages of the Divine Soul Realm. Those were the wisp that Cinty prepared to receive the Myriad Wisps Technique, and the same ones that would be leaving for other universes later. Krune's objective today was to pass his cultivation technique and answer all questions that they could have.
Every single one of those wisps had a high talent and would have a small chance of achieving the Soul Forging Realm in the future. With his Myriad Wisps Technique, those chances would soar!
They also knew about the real situation of the wisp race that Cinty explained to Krune and his friends in the Ancestry Hall.
Krune then passed the cultivation technique and started to explain everything in detail. Between questions and answers, quite a few hours passed.
Finally, an Early Stage Divine Soul Realm wisp was able to create the first Pseudo Energy Meridian.
"Oh! Very good! It seems like you understood the principles behind this technique very well."
The wisp's name was Zuit.
"Thanks. Still, I have my doubt if that so-called Spiritual Energy Meridians are as good as you and Cinty say. At the very least, it looks quite bad at the moment compared with my natural absorption rate."
Krune smiled and said.
"Even if you don't trust me, you just need to trust your wisp queen. Have she ever done anything to harm the wisps in the past?"
Zuit immediately shook his head.
Krune laughed, seeing that.
"That's it. Cinty told me that you guys were select not because you were loyal to her, but because she believes in your loyalty for the wisp race instead. Since she said this much, I shall also trust you all the same way. So just make sure to cultivate it for now. Once you create the Spiritual Energy Meridians and especially evolve them to the Elemental Energy ones, you will understand the difference."
Zuit nodded and went back to create his second pseudo meridian.
The other wisps saw that and put even more effort into the process. They just didn't want to fall behind Zuit. Especially since he is the youngest Divine Soul Realm wisp present at the moment.
Between cultivation, teaching, and concocting pills or practicing formations, Krune and Feifei also took the chance to go to the Mission Hall some times to take a few missions. Feifei needed to get used to her new Realm while Krune had to stabilize his cultivation. Although he could use the Cultivation Stabilizing Pill, it is, after all, external help. Not to mention that Krune's pills wouldn't be different from the others at a specific point. The fact that the more you use, the lesser the effect.
Krune and Feifei were browsing through the list of missions available when suddenly, Krune noticed one that caught his attention.
-The Elemental Path is about to open again, we need cultivators or demon beasts at the Divine Soul Realm of below to enter and retrieve as many Elemental Flowers as possible.
Payment: Every three flowers acquired, one shall be yours.
Starting time countdown: 13 days and 17 hours.
Those interested, please come to the Etinol Planet's Elemental Sect.
Elemental Sect reputation on the Mission Hall: 5 stars.-
'With such a high reputation, that means they really keep their word about the payment.'
Feifei understood why it took Krune's attention and then asked.
"Do you know what those Elemental Flowers are?"
Krune nodded.
"They have quite a few uses like cultivation, alchemy, and laws. In my case, I would like to use them for laws since my cultivation speed is already good enough. It should be good for you too. Those flowers carry the five elements in them, which are very good even if you don't practice all elemental laws like me. From what I found in the alchemist network, there are even a few of them that carry other characteristics like Darkness, Space, Light, and even Destiny."
Feifei's eyes immediately lit up. Just like Xanio mentioned, her first Destiny Sub-Law, the Law of Cause, made almost no progress at all until now. Xanio had warned that she probably wouldn't reach culmination in the first Destiny Law before she reached the Void Breaking Realm. Still, it doesn't mean that Feifei doesn't want to be faster. So this information obviously caught her attention straight away.
"Then, we should definitely go!"
Krune heard that and pointed at the rest of the information.
-The Dalin Universe Rules are not applied in the Elemental Path. The Elemental Sect isn't the only one who will enter it either. Anyone who decides to go in must understand that they might lose their lives due to the environment or the fight against the other powers. The Elemental Sect will not take responsibility for anything that happens inside, so everyone using our entrance will have to sign an agreement related to it.-
Feifei frowned. She is indeed in the Divine Soul Realm, and although Krune had just recently entered the 9th stage of the Core Formation, he also can fight at the Divine Soul Realm Level. The problem is that this realm will be open for anyone under the Soul Forging Realm. That means that the chances of Krune and Feifei encountering Late Stages Divine Soul Realm enemies is very high!
As much as a genius they could be, jumping too many stages to fight is still out of what they can cope with.
"Oh! It seems like this mission had been posted several times in the past. Let me take a look at the records."
Krune then went through the reports and then reached a conclusion.
"So, as far as I can see, there are always Late Stages Divine Soul Realm Cultivators and Demon Beasts participating. Still, they are the minority, not counting for even 10% of the total. The majority is in the Early Stages, while another good part is in the Middle. It seems like there are always several groups too."
Feifei pondered a bit and then said.
"We might as well join a group. The problem is to know who we can trust. The way it looks, it seems like those groups will be formed on the spot. Of course, chances are that the majority of the groups will be the ones which were already made before they even arrived there."
Krune nodded.
"In that case, we should take this mission for now. Once we arrive there, we can take a look around if there is any group worth joining. If there isn't, we can decide if we will enter or not after getting a little more information."
Feifei nodded.
"Yes, we should at least take a look into it. I really want to take a look at those flowers with Destiny in them."
After they decided to go ahead with this plan, Krune and Feifei returned to their home to tell everyone. But in the end, Tiane and Ruik had left at some point, and they didn't know where those had gone.
Feifei checked her communicator and finally found a message left in there.
"I left with the idiot snake for a mission. We should be back in three or four weeks at most. If you need anything, just send me a message, and I will come back as fast as possible."
Feifei looked at Krune.
"That's what she said."
Krune didn't feel like disturbing those two. After all, they were not quite at the level where they should enter the Elemental Path. Not to mention that neither of the two has comprehended a law yet. Monsters like Krune and Feifei that can grasp one while being in the Core Formation Realm are as rare as phoenix feathers.
"I will just leave a message for them as well that we will be leaving in a mission. According to the previous records, the Elemental Path is a dimensional realm that stays open for 18 days. Considering the travel time, we should be back in around a month as well."
Feifei nodded and said.
"Cinty, that cultivation maniac, probably won't even notice that we left, but it's better to leave a message for her as well."
Krune agreed with Feifei. After leaving a message for both parties, Feifei and Krune got organized what they needed and left their home.
Before leaving the Wisp World, Krune passed by the residence of those Divine Soul Realm wisps that were practicing his Myriad Wisps Technique. In the end, the first one to have completed all nine Pseudo Energy Meridians was indeed Zuit. When Krune arrived at his residence, it was just in time to see him creating the very first Spiritual Energy one.
Krune couldn't help but smile.
"Yo! It seems like you finally got it right."
Zuit looked at Krune and nodded.
"Yes, this is the first one, so I still have to create the other eight."
"That's not a problem, the creation of the Spiritual Energy Meridians is a lot easier than the Pseudo ones. All you need is enough Spiritual Energy. Although our wisp world isn't that rich, Cinty still separated enough Spirit Stones for you all to finish creating them."
Zuit thought about Cinty and sighed.
"Because you are new here, you don't know that, but Cinty really sacrificed a lot for the wisps in the Wisp Worlds. So you don't need to worry, I will complete my part of the mission once I leave for another universe. Compared to everything she had gone through, this is really nothing at all. I just hope that this technique is as good as you said."
Krune nodded and then made a request.
"In that case, why don't you try to cultivate using just this single Spiritual Energy meridian?"
Zuit nodded and sat down. Without him noticing, Krune silently left. Suddenly, Zuit opened his eyes while showing an expression of disbelief. Just as he about to talk to Krune, he saw that the later was already gone.
"Hehe! It seems like our wisp race really has a sliver of hope with this technique."
Zuit then thought about Krune's smiling face and then shook his head.
"No, perhaps we have two."
He ignored everything else and started to open the rest of the Spiritual Energy Meridians.
As for Krune and Feifei, they have already taken the Teleport Formation leading outside the Wisp Worlds.
