Is that a Wisp?

Two years went in a flash, leaving only two years until the Heavenly Competition. But today, some news started to spread everywhere. The wisps have invented a cultivation technique, the Myriad Wisps Technique!

This technique could allow wisps to cultivate extremely fast, which helps them to avoid the lifespan issue. After investigating, it was found out that there were high chances of wisps being able to achieve the Divine Path Realm before dying. In fact, the chances were higher than any other race. Obviously, this shocked everyone.

In fact, it was found out around 2 months ago. However, Dalin and the Universes controlling it tried to keep the information secret. They wanted to eliminate the focuses where these wisps were found. Unfortunately, they soon came to an understanding. The wisps had been spreading it non stop. There was simply no way to know just how many universes have wisps with this technique.

In the end, the only choice was to release the news and hope that all the Universes would work together to hold them back.

Cinty was back in the wisp world, checking a few documents. As soon as the news was released, she received a call from Norzulun Odgas, the one in charge of Dalin Universe Management.

"Oh, hello there. Is there a reason for you to contact me, Norzulun?"

The guy on the other side had a dark expression.

"What's the meaning of this? From where this Myriad Wisps Technique came from?"

Cinty shrugged her shoulder.

"Is that why you called me? Obviously, it was us, wisps, who created it. Is there a problem?"

Norzulun's mouth twitched.

"You know very well what the problem is. You guys had never had a cultivation technique before. But now this thing can pretty much guarantee that you will all reach the Soul Forging Realm or higher. Depending on the wisp's talent, even the Divine Path Realm is not impossible anymore."

Cinty nodded.

"That's true. Now, just like all the other races in all Universes, our wisp race has a cultivation technique. Of course, we are still far behind you all. After all, just how many cultivation techniques each race has on their hands? We only have a single one, though. Oh, I see. You are calling me to congratulate us. Supervisor Norzulun is too courteous."

Norzulun almost exploded.

"Congratulate your head! Do you have any ide-"

Bam!

Cinty slammed the table in front of her.

"If I have any idea? Of course, I have an idea! Our wisp race can finally rise to stand on equal terms with all the other races.

We finally will give birth to wisps who can protect our race interests, just like all other races have.

We finally will have a chance to live a long life, just like all other races have.

We finally won't be looked at with disdain by everyone, just like all the other races.

We finally will become a race that can stand on its own feet, just like all the other races.

Tell me, is there anything wrong with that? Is that really a big problem that we won't be the only race in existence to die without another choice?"

Norzulun was taken aback. The wisp race has always been seen as a threat. So that's why he was enraged when this Myriad Wisps Technique appeared. But now that Cinty put it like that, he couldn't deny her words. Everything she said was true, after all.

Norluzun then took a deep breath to calm down.

"Alright. I will admit that everything you said is right. But that's not where the problem lies, and you know it. You know as well as me about what happened with Wally back then. If wisps can now reach the Divine Path Realm, there is bound to be wisps ascending one day. If those wisps can then come back to the Lower Realm without paying any price, the Universes will eventually be dominated by them. That's why we can't allow wisps to cultivate past the Void Breaking Realm."

Cinty snorted, though.

"So you saying that the wisp race's feelings matter not. Everything we have passed through since we came to exist should simply be accepted. Alright, then let's think about it like this. All the other races in all the Universes have dominated them for countless chaos cycles. So what's the problem if our Wisp Race dominates for a while? Or could it be that only you, the all might flesh and blood races, are worthy of staying at the top?"

"This..."

Norzulun was speechless once more. However, he quickly recovered.

"That's not what I said. Don't try to change the topic here either. If the wisps began to come down from the Higher Realms without any backlashes, they would dominate forever! Eventually, the time they stay on top will surpass all the other races together, and it will never end."

Cinty shrugged her shoulders.

"You said the right thing just now. Such a situation is only possible if the wisps can come down from the higher realms without paying any price. But as far as I know, Wally was the only wisp to ever achieve this. Where is the proof that all the wisps can do the same thing as him?"

Norzuluan answered straight away.

"If they can't, then that would be for the best. But what if they can? That is the issue here."

Cinty didn't care.

"Well, there is only one way to find out, no? If the wisps don't ascend, how do you expect to know? You guys should just sit down and observe, that's the best thing you can do."

Norzulun's eyes narrowed.

"The problem is that no one intends to give it a chance. It's always better to prevent the disease than heal it."

Cinty couldn't help but laugh.

"Too bad, though. The 'disease,' as you call us, has already been spread. I might as well tell you this. It doesn't matter how many forces you mobilize, no one can stop the Myriad Wisps Technique dissemination. Way too many Universes had already received this technique. Especially now that you released the news."

"Oh, right! I have to thank you for helping us to start the phase 2 of our Myriad Wisps Technique Spreading plan. You guys probably thought about mobilizing the other Universes to do a quick subjugation of the wisps that are spreading this technique. Unfortunately, you are too naive."

"This will indeed slow down the spread, that much is true. However, it will also be the reason why our Myriad Wisps Technique will reach even further places that would usually be impossible for my forces alone to do."

"There will be several cultivators and demon beasts who will participate in it. But in the end, some will bring a copy of the technique back with them to their home Universes. Slowly, but certainly, the number of Universes that will spread this technique will increase. That initial slowed speed of spread will eventually speed up once more due to the number of Universes that have it. Even if the Higher Realm began to send their forces down, it would still be useless."

Norzulun was taken aback. Cinty was right, they had indeed slowed down the spread of this technique by eliminating the sparks around the Universes. But could he really stop the cultivators and demon beasts from bringing a copy away with them?

"You! You are crazy! Are you perhaps wishing to start a war against all races of the Universe?"

Cinty shook her head.

"Don't talk bullshit! Take a very good look at history. Our Wisps Race has been, without a doubt, the most peaceful race to ever exists. We seldom try to find problems with others. If anything, it's you guys who always cause us an unlimited amount of troubles. Our wisp race doesn't want to antagonize anyone. We only want to live our lives and have our chances like everyone else. If this 'war' you are talking about really happens, it will not be because we started it. As long as you leave us alone, neither side will have to suffer."

Norzulun felt helpless at that.

"You know that it is not that simple. The other races will eventually take action to prevent the wisps from rising. It will definitely become a full-scale wisp hunt everywhere."

Cinty shook her head.

"There is no need to worry. I can guarantee you it won't reach this point."

"Why?"

Cinty slimed before continuing.

"Isn't that obvious? It is simply impossible to completely eliminate all wisps with the Myriad Wisps technique. Sooner or later, hidden Divinity Realm Wisps will ascend. Once they get strong enough, they will want to come back for revenge."

"If the thing about all the wisps being able to come down without backlashes is true, the Universes who hunted those ascended wisps relentlessly will be their very first targets. Once they come down, all the enemy forces will have to face the calamity caused by their own actions."

Norzulun couldn't help but sweat cold. What Cinty said really made a lot of sense.

Cinty then added.

"If the Universes out there wish to prevent such a thing from happening, there will be only one choice. Do not antagonize the wisps. Treat them just like you treat any other race in your Universe. If a wisp gets in a fight for a treasure in some whatever dimensional realm, then he might die just like everyone else in that battle. This is the kind of treatment we want. To be treated as if we were like any other race around."
