Is that a Wisp?

Back at Krune's residence, he started to ask Ao and the others how the Master-Disciple selection turned out. In the end, only Lofa, Tasier, and Yusa didn't get a master, but they still joined the Sect without problems. Krune was especially impressed with the fact that Joty got a Legacy Elder as Master. Of course, Joty isn't here at the moment, it was Yusa who told Krune about that.

Although they could be said to be from the same planet, Joty hasn't really been a part of his group before the test, so they weren't that close to start with.

Yusa also took that chance to share the Spirit Stones they got during the exam, when Krune and Ao saw that, their eyes lit up! They had always been the poorest ones, so the sight of spirit stones always lifted their moods.

The next day, Yusa, Ao, and Shinja suddenly got a message. It was Kassius Ruli, the one responsible for them during this trip to the Divine Path Sect Entrance Exam. Kassius, of course, already knew about the fact that those four passed, which made him feel like he was on heavens!

"Oh, senior! I will guide you, please come to my place."

Kassius nodded, and Krune helped him to take the right route to reach his residence. Although Kassius wasn't a member, Krune or any other one from his group could use their IDs to allow someone to enter the inner Sect. Of course, as long as they don't enter any important place. Krune hasn't got his ID yet, so he used Yusa's one.

After Kassius arrived, he gave Krune and the others a big bear hug! One could totally see how happy he was that even his status as senior didn't matter anymore. That's why the guild put so much effort on Krune, so that he could enter, but who could have thought that not only him, but even the other three also passed?

"Haha! Great! I can't wait to see the face of everyone when I get back to the Makui Planet. Not only is it a good thing for our guild, but this is also great for the entire planet! To think that we had a total of eight contestants passing the test this time around, and the majority came from our Yule Continent Guild! No one will believe when I tell them that."

Krune didn't mind Kassius' mood. The Yule Continent Mercenary Guild had indeed helped him a lot to the point that he couldn't be more grateful. He was more than happy with all the resources it will receive now with him and the others joining the Sect. He also took this opportunity to ask for something.

"Senior, please use some of the resources in the Kaley City mercenary guild and the branch at the Katiu Forest."

Kassius heard that and nodded.

"Don't worry, we would do that even if you didn't ask. Oh right, what about that Solie Clan, I know that they have been helping you, but they also tried to harm you, what is your take on that?"

Krune heard that and pondered a bit.

"Hm... Oh well, just give them something too."

Yusa and Ao did not look surprised at Krune's decision. Kassius then asked why.

"It's true that they tried to harm us in the past, but it was also because of that that we came to have Ao with us. So I guess you can consider it a hidden fortune. Not to mention that after that, they really did everything we asked to them without any complaints."

Kassius nodded and didn't touch on that topic anymore. He then looked at Krune with a serious face.

"I saw during the test, you are a wisp, right?"

Krune nodded, now that he is part of the Divine Path Sect, there is no need to conceal it anymore.

"I believe you can understand why I couldn't show it."

Kassius nodded, even he had to admit that with a Foundation Establishment wisp, he should be able to make a breakthrough as well. Even if his foundation was affected, there is no doubt that it would be worth it depending on the situation. So he agrees that Krune made the right choice in concealing it until now.

"Indeed. Anyway, it doesn't matter anymore. What I want to ask is what you intend to do now that you joined the Sect. As the Sect Master's Disciple, no one in the Makui Planet would defy your orders. You can even say that wisps shall not be hunted anymore, and all the big powers in the Makui Planet will do their best to fulfill your wishes."

Lakin, who was hearing the conversation by the side, immediately came forward.

"Master, this is great! We could even create a country for the wisps to live freely there."

Krune looked at Lakin and the other wisps and sighed.

"Lakin, I know what you want to do, but there is one thing that is bothering me for a long time already. If we take all the wisps always and put them in a safe place, they will be able to live well for a long time. But what will happen if I disappear? The wisps will then become the main target of everyone there, and their safe heaven will be massacred without a doubt."

Kassius heard that and nodded, it seems that he wouldn't need to intervene. Krune then continued.

"After this long, I came to understand one thing. What we need to do is not find a safe place where they can live peacefully, there is no such thing as eternal safety in this universe. So I got to the conclusion that what you, me, and all the wisps need to do is not save the wisp race, but give it them the opportunity to grow strong just like us."

He then continued.

"And such thing as putting then inside a box voided of any danger would be the most idiotic action. The wisps main issue at the moment is the fact that they have no way to cultivate as fast as everyone else. Because of their energy, they end up becoming cultivation resources."

"But think with me, if we discard the fact that they can't cultivate properly, is there any difference between them and the demon beasts or humans? Humans that enter the Danger Zones are there to acquire Demon Beast resources. In exchange, the Demon Beast can also kill the humans for their meat, Dantians, and items that they bring with them. In the end, both humans and demon beasts are also considered cultivation resources. Why is it that they are at the same level? It is because they can at least protect themselves, something that the wisps can't do."

"It is also because of this that they can grow stronger since they have opponents to help temper themselves. So what we need to do is not find a safe place and throw all of the wisps inside. Once more, what we need to do is to find a way to help them grow stronger!"

Lakin and the other wisps felt like they had been enlighted!

'That's right, if Master disappears, then what will happen with the wisps that remained? He could ask the Sect Master to help protect that place, but what about the wisps of other planets? What I want is not to save the wisps that are just in front of me, but all of them!'

But then, he thought about something.

"But Master, if we want the wisps to grow stronger..."

Lakin didn't say anything else since Kassius was also present. But Krune understood that Lakin was thinking about the Myriad Energies Technique. That is the only thing that can help wisps cultivate, but it is also Krune's greatest secret. They had all seen the effect of this cultivation technique in other races too, and although it is isn't as good as it is for wisps, it is still a heaven-defying one.

Not to mention that it is only considering the normal races, Krune still hasn't passed it to a race specialized in the soul like the spiritas. Chances are that they would be able to achieve the same proficiency as them, or maybe go even higher! Krune, of course, knew all of that.

"I know what you are saying, but there is no need to worry. It wasn't just now that I started to think about it anyway."

Krune then looked at Kassius and said.

"Senior, this topic is a little sensitive. Would you mind to give us a minute?"

Kassius didn't mind at all, in the cultivation universe, secrets are common. He then nodded and left the room, Krune asked one of the Lizard Dragons to bring him to somewhere else.

Krune then called two wisps over. Lakin, obviously, knew who they were. Their names were Tira and Juji, two wisps that had also received the Myriad Energies Technique directly from his Master. At the moment, both of them were at the 8th and 9th stage of the Qi Condensation. Juji, especially, was at the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm at the moment.

There was one thing that Lakin always wondered, though. Why did his Master personally teach them? He could simply have asked Lakin, Cassy, or anyone else, and they would have done it for him.

Krune then looked at Tira and Juji and asked.

"How is it, did you find any problem during your cultivation of the new technique?"

New technique? Let alone Lakin, everyone who knew about the Myriad Energies Technique immediately got their attention picked!

Tira was the first one to answer.

"I had no problems, Ancestor. I tried both versions, and they are practically the same. The only difference is that the new version is a little slower at the Spiritual Energy absorption, but not that much. I would say that the difference is between 10% to at most 20%."

Krune nodded and looked at Juji.

"Same thing here, Ancestor. I have been using the new version all along, and I'm confident that it would work even after the breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment."

Yusa couldn't hold herself back anymore and asked.

"Can you please tell us what is happening? I'm about to explode out of curiosity!"

This time, Yusa really did talk on everyone's behalf.

Krune smiled and then called another wisp over, but this wisp hasn't started to cultivate yet. In fact, Krune only knew his name, Bril.

Bril was nervous, that was the first time that the Wisp Ancestor had ever called his name.

Krune then passed a cultivation technique to him, after that, he called all the demon beasts and cultivators there at the moment.

"Here, take this cultivation technique that I prepared and try to cultivate it together with Bril."

Shinja and the others already had an idea about what all of this was about, but they did as Krune asked anyway.

Krune then personally guided Bril during his first time cultivating. With Krune's help, it didn't take long for Bril to create the first Pseudo Energy Meridian. As for all the demon beasts and humans?

"This thing doesn't work, it doesn't matter how I try to guide the spiritual energy, I can't make it take the form of a Pseudo Energy Meridian."

The one who talked was Ruik, the Rainbow Sect leader. Or at least, that was how everyone still treated him.

Shinja then looked at Bril and said.

"So that's what it is about, you created a new version of the Myriad Energies Technique, a version that only works for wisps and no one else."

Those who were still lost finally understood the crux of the issue. Krune then laughed out loud and said.

"I was the one who found about the Myriad Energies Technique true form! So, of course, I can also change it! This technique is basically the same as the real one, just a little worse at gathering Spiritual Energy. Still, it can also create the Spiritual Energy Meridians just like yours, and is very suitable to wisp and wisps only!"

He then showed a proud expression and said.

"I call it, Myriad Wisps Technique!"
