Is that a Wisp?

Krune took some time to calm down after seeing that but still did so. The rainbow had been following his shadow for so long now, so there is no point in thinking about that any further.

'Rainbow wisp, right? So be it, I will follow the rainbow and get the pot of gold at the end of it!'

Krune then reverted back to his human form, returned to his Master's house, and then told him everything except for Light Spirit's existence. Lucio heard that and was taken aback.

"Open your foundation and let me take a look."

Krune nodded and did as he was told.

Lucio used his Divine Sense and enveloped Krune's Elemental Core. Even at his Realm, it wasn't very easy to make his Divine Sense enter a Major Core to look inside. Not to mention that it was only possible because Krune was willingly allowing it. After taking a good look at that Rainbow Egg Divine Soul, Lucio narrowed his eyes.

"This is the first time I see something like this. As you know, I also have an Elemental Core, but my Core Formation Realm breakthrough was just like anyone else. My future Divine Soul didn't take the shape of an egg, it just gathered in the center and spread the strands around my Core. I also had a Perfect Breakthrough at that time, so it shouldn't be the reason. If I'm not wrong, this is because your Elemental Core is different from the normal ones, so it is also giving birth to a different Divine Soul."

Lucio also added.

"Of course, it could also be because of the Elemental Meridians that you created, but I can't confirm that either."

Krune nodded and agreed with his Master. Lucio had told him before that his Elemental Core was different, so he was already expecting that to be the case. As for the Elemental Meridians being the cause, he doesn't think that it is the case since Shinja already evolved her Meridians, but nothing happened to her future Divine Soul. Or at least, she didn't mention anything about it.

Lucio then said.

"Give me a second, I will call a friend to take a look too."

Lucio then called Falanea back. Surprisingly, Ojilian was together with her too.

"We were just chatting when you called her over, so I just followed to enjoy the fun."

Lucio ignored Ojilian's remark and told Falanea what happened. She then used her Destiny Core to try to check the destiny energy around Krune but still couldn't see any movement.

"Nothing changed, it doesn't move at all."

Lucio then pondered a bit and told Krune.

"Come with me to my training pocked dimension, I want to check what you can do with it or if nothing will change before the Divine Soul Realm."

Krune nodded and followed Lucio together with Ojilian and Falanea.

Krune was quite impressed with the space inside his Master's training pocket dimension. It was who knows how many times bigger than the Rainbow Sect pocket dimension. Still, he didn't come here to admire it.

Lucio looked at Krune and said.

"Come at me with everything you got. I want to see if any significant side effect appeared after you got the Rainbow Egg Divine Soul."

Krune sighed, and he could help but ask.

"Master, can we change the name to Elemental Egg instead?"

Lucio was surprised that Krune would care about such detail, but after checking his expression, he could see that Krune didn't like that name very much.

"No way! This name is perfect, the Rainbow Wisp has a Rainbow Egg, it's very fit, don't you think? It is even comical!"

Lucio, of course, wouldn't let such an opportunity pass by just like that.

Krune could totally see that Lucio was doing that on purpose, though.

"Old geezer, I was treating you with respect until a second ago, and that's how you thank me?"

Lucio, of course, was finding it very funny.

"Hmph! So what if you treat me with respect. Isn't this the way that you really act? All the seriousness makes me sick, you should stop it."

And there they go again! Instead of paying attention to the critical task at hand, they prefer to argue with each other.

Falanea looked at Ojilian and commented with a Divine Sense message.

"It's hard to see Lucio having this much fun."

Ojilian nodded.

"He is always taking care of everything in the Sect, so it could be said that Krune is his escape route out of that monotonous routine. At least, he doesn't need to keep that serious face all the time when he is with his disciple. After all, this Wisp doesn't give a damn to what Lucio thinks, and that's what he likes on him."

Falanea agreed that Ojilian is right. They have known Lucio for thousands of years, after all.

Ojilian noticed that it would get late if they waited and intervene.

"The two clowns over there, we don't have all day! Can you start already?"

Only then did the two of them stop. After that, Lucio said.

"Alright, as I said before, go all out so that I can verify if there is anything different."

Krune, of course, didn't even need Lucio to say that. He was more than willing to attack with all his might at the moment.

"Hmph! Believe me when I say that I won't. But first, let me recover some Spiritual Energy. Also, my Elemental Core is empty of Elemental Source Energy, so I need to recover it too."

To use the power of the Core, Spiritual Energy doesn't work, it has to be Elemental Source Energy! Krune, who had just broken through, obviously had no time to replenish it.

Lucio nodded and waited. Krune then sat down and operated his Elemental Meridians to absorb the Spiritual Energy around. He could feel that the Spiritual Energy around him was as concentrated as the one he got when he was inside the Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation.

'I guess this is to be expected of the Sect Master. This isn't even the Cultivation Room, but the amount of Spiritual Energy is already this high!'

There was another thing that Krune wanted to test, as well. Exactly how much of the Spiritual Energy absorbed by his Elemental Meridians will turn into Elemental Source Energy? Is it the same 30% as Shinja, or is it more? He wanted to know!

Krune started to absorb the Spiritual Energy, and when it first appeared inside his foundation, Krune's eyes lit up!

'Great!'

It turned out that his Elemental Meridians converted around 50% of all the Spiritual Energy that came in, which means that half of the job was done by them alone!

'At this rate, if all I need is to recover the energy for battle, I cant fill me Elemental Core in just 10 minutes or so! As for cultivation, it will make it 50% faster to cultivate now. I really couldn't hope for more!'

10 minutes later, Krune got up.

"Okay, I'm ready!"

Let alone Lucio, even Ojilian and Falanea were surprised when he said that.

"Did you recover to your peak, or did you just recover some of it?"

Krune thought that there was no need to lie to his Master, so he told the truth.

"I recovered it completely."

Lucio's mouth twitched.

'Isn't this Myriad Wisps Technique too heaven-defying? Even the Sect's top cultivation technique for Core Formation Realm can at most achieve 70% of Krune's speed.'

Lucio then pondered a bit.

'But I guess it makes sense, wisps have too little of a life span, maybe this is the compensation for their lack of time. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the time necessary to enter the next Realm.'

Lucio was right! After all, one can see it when they think about Shinja, who can only convert around 30% of the Spiritual Energy straight away. Of course, this is already very good!

Lucio then showed a serious expression and said.

"Alright, you can start at any time!"

Krune didn't waste time and immediately activated his Tribulation Lightning movement at 50%. But as soon as he moved, he stopped. That is because he noticed one thing.

'Wait! I'm not feeling at my limit when I use my Tribulation Lightning Movement at 50% output. Could it be that I can go further now?'

Krune then tried to increase the power of the Tribulation Lightning.

60%... he could still hold it.

65%... still okay.

70%... nothing.

75%... he finally noticed that his wisp body was reaching the limit, but he could still go a little further.

80%! Only at this amount of Tribulation Lightning power release did Krune finally feel like he would get hurt if he increased the output.

'80% of Tribulation Lightning power output. This is great! I reckon that I should be able to achieve 50% to 60% in my human form now too.'

Krune was ecstatic and immediately attacked his Master with everything he got. Now that he can release 80% of Tribulation Lightning power, his other skills that could be fused with it also increase in strength!

Lucio received all of Krune's attacks with a bored face. But in fact, he was really surprised by him.

'This speed and attack power, he can totally fight ordinary late stages Core Formation Realm cultivators and demon beasts. If I consider the average combat prowess of the members of my Divine Path Sect, he should be able to challenge those on the 4th or maybe even the 5th stage of the same Realm. If we consider the Major Core owners, he should be able to win against a 2nd stage and even fight equally against those on the 3rd!'

One must remember that we are at the Divine Path Sect, each and every member is or was a genius on their own right. So it goes without saying that the realms that Krune could jump to fight were a lot lower than ordinary ones. Still, what Krune is doing is already a miracle in and out itself.

'As for the ordinary cultivators and demon beasts, the 7th stage shouldn't be an issue, only the 8th stage should be able to put a challenge to him. Still, he wouldn't lose that easy. Even if it is an enemy at the 9th stage, with his Tribulation Lightning Movement, he should be able to run away without a problem.'

While Krune was fighting, he was also checking the things that were happening inside his Elemental Core.

'According to what Master Said, Core Formation Realm should be able to use the power of the Core now. So far, it has been exactly like that. I can also see the difference between the Elemental Source Energy that I used before and the one that passed through my Elemental Core. The Elemental Source Energy that has been refined by the Elemental Core is several times easier to manipulate and fuse with my attacks. It gives me the feeling that it is, in fact, a part of me now. So this is the power of the Core that everyone talks about.'

Krune did really think that everything was going okay and that nothing strange happened. However, in Lucio, Ojilian, and Falanea's eyes, it was totally different!

While Lucio was fending off Krune's attacks, he was also talking with Falanea and Ojilian through Divine Sense.

"Impressive, isn't it? His control of the Elemental Source Energy is definitely much better than my own when I was at his Realm."

Ojilian nodded.

"You said that his future Divine Soul took the shape of an egg, right? As we know, it is because of the Soul inside the Core that we can use the Core's Power. But it seems like his Soul can manipulate the power of the Core much better than any of us when we were young."

Falanea also commented.

"And while all of this is happening, the Destiny Energy around him is still as calm as a lake, not even a ripple can be found. If I want to divine anything, I have to use the collateral damage that his attacks do to the environment. But it will never be as good as divining the cultivators or demon beasts themselves. Such an envious ability!"

Lucio then laughed.

"I'm looking forward to seeing just what kind of Divine Soul will come out of that rainbow egg."

Ojilian and Falanea nodded. They, too, are very curious about what changes would be there.
