Is that a Wisp?

Elder Lagan then opened a Spatial Gate that connected directly to the closest Super Long Distance Teleport Formation. Dilo, of course, followed as well. Krune looked at him and then asked with a Divine Sense Message.

"Just what is it that you want? It doesn't matter how I see it, a Soul Forging Realm like you following a Core Formation Realm like me feels weird. There has to be a reason for that."

Dilo smiled and said.

"I wasn't lying when I said that it was thanks to you that my life was saved. I really would prefer to die if I couldn't cultivate anymore, so my gratitude is definitely not a pretense. But there is indeed another reason for that. You probably guessed it already too. I'm thinking about your future."

Dilo felt like telling everything was the best way to go.

"I have little doubt that with your talent in Pill Making, your future is very bright, even if you are a wisp. So other than repay for your help, I also want to be there to see that happen. Call it greed, shameless, opportunism, or whatever. I will definitely do as I say. Also, in case you don't believe me, here's my guarantee."

Without anyone noticing. Dilo took a slive of his soul and sent it on Krune's way.

Krune almost had a heart attack seeing that. He quickly took that and hid it before anyone could notice.

"Are you crazy? This is the same as becoming someone's slave! As long as I have your slive of Soul, I can totally kill you anytime. Just why would you trust me this much? We barely knew each other a few days ago."

Dilo laughed and said.

"Consider it my own gambling. Since I decided that I owe you my life, what is the difference between you having a slive of my soul or not? If you feel like my life isn't worth keeping, you might as well crush it. I, Dilo Krois, have never gone back on my word before, and I don't intend to start now."

Although Krune is an easy-going wisp, he would indeed have his reservations about Dilo. But the guy just had to give him a slive of his soul to prove his determination. Krune couldn't help but remember the time that Wang Mei asked for the same thing. Didn't he give her a slive of his soul without thinking as well? In the end, Krune could only sigh.

"Fine, I accept your determination."

Krune then sent Dilo's slive of the soul back to him, just to have it be refused by the later. Krune was taken aback by that.

"What you doing? I don't want it, I decided to trust you for now."

Dilo, on the other hand, was adamant.

"Don't want it. Not that I don't think that you will trust me, but because with it, you can contact me almost anywhere. Just send some spiritual energy into the Soul Slive. As a part of me, I will immediately sense it. That will be the signal that you need my help urgently. I can also sense where you are with it. Lastly, it can be used for you to detect if I have any evil thoughts about you or not."

Krune was feeling gloomy already. He really didn't like the idea of holding someone's life in his hands.

"Cough, cough. Can't we just use simple communicators? You know, like any normal person or demon beast?"

Dilo's face didn't even change. It was evident that he wouldn't hear it.

After a few more minutes of insistence, Krune finally gave up. He decided that he would find a way later to make Dilo accept it back.

"Fine, I will hold onto it for now. But this is definitely not a permanent thing. Are you okay with that?"

Dilo smiled and said.

"That's good enough. Oh, right! You can also use it to force me to do anything, even if I don't want to."

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"You are not a masochist, right?"

Dilo almost vomited blood!

"You are a masochist, your entire family is masochist!"

Krune let out a sigh of relief. At least he was wrong about this point.

The group of five then arrived at a planet called Gilea. There, Lagan guided them to the teleport formation that they would use. Because this is something that would benefit both the Alchemist Organization and Krune, the Organization had already paid for the entire trip. It goes without saying that a trip this far would be quite expensive, but Amark Guli didn't care at all.

"Amark had me spend the last week doing research about the wisp talent test. But in the end, there wasn't much information available. So although we said that the round trip would take a few weeks, that is only the travel time. We are not sure about how long it will take for you to get into the wisp protection system. In the end, it is all up to you."

Lagan then took two tokens out. One blue and another red.

"You can show the blue token at the teleport formations of each planet. It will be considered as the payment fee. The managers of the teleport formations will then send the bill directly to our Solar System Alchemist Organization."

"As for the red token, it has two functions. The first is that my will is inside it. You can use it to contact me anytime. Once you understand how is the situation there, please tell me how it is. Amark wants to know how long it will take as well."

"The second function is that it can be used once as a protective talisman. The will that I left inside should have enough power to make one attack at the Divine View Realm Level. So make sure that you only use it in case you are really in danger. Still, you will be able to contact me even after the attack is executed. The only difference is that it won't be able to do anything else other than being used as a way to talk with me."

Krune accepted both tokens. Now that he thinks about it, his Master and Grandmaster also gave him a token each. Lani's token used his understanding of the Space Laws to teleport anyone anywhere tens of thousands of kilometers always. Unless Krune was dealing with someone at the Divine View Realm or above, they probably wouldn't be able to find him.

As for his Master, Lucio, token, it had his will inside. Unfortunately, because they are indifferent Universes, it couldn't be used for communication. Lucio told Krune to only awake the will inside if he got stuck at cultivation. He made it as a way to guide Krune while not really being there. The reason that Lucio asked him to use it as little as possible is that he doesn't know how long Krune will be away.

Although the will inside could exist for a very long time, it wouldn't be forever. So the least Krune used it, the longer it would remain there.

'I probably will have to use it soon. There are a few things I need to ask about the Elemental Regulation Technique. It's just that I have been busy with other things lately that I still didn't call it out.'

Krune then put those thoughts behind and took both tokens from elder Lagan.

"Thanks. Once I arrive there, I will make sure to contact you back after I find out how long it will take."

Lagan nodded and then spent some time talking with Krune and everyone else. A few minutes later, he bid his farewell and left.

Feifei, Ruik, and Tiane were now looking at Dilo, who was going to follow them from now on.

Krune wasn't the type to keep secrets unless it was really necessary. Since that was the case, he decided to tell everything Dilo and him talked about.

"What?! Did he give you a slive of his soul?"

Ruik looked at Dilo and asked.

"Are you crazy or something?"

Dilo just laughed out loud.

"That's my decision, and also the fastest way to be trusted."

Feifei then asked Krune.

"Considering your personality, I thought that you definitely would give it back to him. How come you still have it?"

Krune put a hand on his head and answered helplessly.

"I tried. Trust me, I really did! But it doesn't matter how many times I sent it to him, he kept refusing and sending his soul slive straight back to me. I'm also in a tight spot here."

Tiane, Ruik, and Feifei looked at Dilo and asked.

"Are you a masochist?"

Dilo smiling face immediately contorted.

Krune nodded after hearing that question.

"I thought the same, but he says he isn't. I have my doubts, though. Perhaps this is a side effect of the years that he tested new pills for the Alchemist Organization."

Dilo felt like dying already! How come they had the same idea as this wisp? It's on purpose, right? Right?!

Poor Dilo didn't know that this was just a Krune infection. The rest of the group really couldn't be blamed.
