Is that a Wisp?
chapter-349

In that split of a second, Krune disappeared from everyone's vision. There was only a flash of purple lightning! But at the same time, Krune's output of Tribulation Lightning started to damage his Core! Still, Krune couldn't care less at that moment.

Unfortunately for Krune, that was still not enough!

The time seemed to come to a stop while Krune looked Uer's attack that was about to pierce through Feifei.

"It's not enough! I won't make it in time! I'm still too slow! I need more power!"

Krune was already at the limit of anything he could have ever done. He released 1000% of his Tribulation Lightning through his wisp body at once, which also put him at risk of breaking his Wisp Core. But even with that, he would still be a tiny bit too late.

During that split of a second, which looked like an eternity, Krune remembered about Ian's cultivation technique!

Back when Krune looked at the Cultivation Techniques of the Divine Path Sect, he found out that there was a wisp in the past who reached the Divine Soul Realm. That wisp's name was Ian, and the cultivation technique that he used was simply to burn away one's soul in exchange for the power necessary for a breakthrough. Of course, such a thing was also considered very risky and had to be carried out carefully. Not to mention that it had severe side effects.

Krune was already at the Peak of the 4th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm. When he thought about how he was lacking a little bit more power, Ian's technique was the first answer in his mind.

He was already on the verge of losing his mind, so he immediately burnt away half of his soul at once! That barrier separating him from the 5th stage of the Divine Soul Realm was torn apart like it was made of paper. Of course, making such a breakthrough while his Core is about to break apart couldn't be considered anything else other than suicide! However, Krune had no time to plan for it carefully, nor did he care anymore!

Krune felt his power increasing and used everything on his Tribulation lighting movement. Finally, that crazy move that used his everything allowed him to appear in front of Feifei at the very last moment! But another problem surfaced, his Shields would definitely not arrive in time to defend him! Dodge, at this point, was also impossible!

But Krune didn't feel desperate. If anything, he felt happy that he was there on time.

Uer's Claws of Death hit Krune's Wisp Core head-on! Krune had tried to bring up an energy barrier, but it didn't have time to form. Krune's Wisp Core than slammed on Feifei and both of them were sent flying against the walls, falling in two different sides of the room! Krune's Wisp Core immediately cracked all over, and it was about to break apart.

Uer was taken aback when he saw Krune appear right in front of him. But then he laughed out loud.

"Amazing! I've never thought I could see such speed at the Divine Soul Realm. Hahaha!"

When Mino Jan heard the name 'Feifei' from Krune, he knew that he had hit the jackpot! That was really the Feifei that all the Sacred Lands were after. Now that both Krune and Feifei ended like that, he felt delighted since they would get a Heavenly Fragment. No, maybe they will get two since that wisp is probably a Heavenly Fragment Owner as well!

He then looked at Joiu, who was being attacked from two different sides and immediately moved to finish the job. Joiu was already in bad shape when he was ambushed earlier by those two. Let alone now that Mino Jan joined the fray. His situation was desperate, and he definitely wouldn't be able to escape either. It only took a few seconds for Joiu to fall into the brink of death as well.

Feifei also got severely injured. But on her face, there were only tears while she tried to get up.

Feifei could barely move at all, so she walked slowly to where Krune's Wisp Core landed. Her body was bleeding everywhere. Several bones were broken, and the Death Energy from the Death Domain was robbing her of all her vitality. She definitely wouldn't survive for long in that situation.

Still, she didn't care about anything like that. She just wanted to see how Krune was at the moment. It was because of her that Krune turned out like that, so what if she died trying?

However, just as Feifei was about to reach Krune's Wisp Core, Uer landed right in front of her. Feifei looked at that Skeleton Dragon, which was a low bigger than herself, but gritted her teeth and kept moving forward.

Uer laughed once more and then said.

"Thanks for showing me such an amazing thing! Unfortunately, I have no interest in you two anymore."

Uer raised his Skeleton Dragon's Claw and attacked Feifei, who was trying to pass by him. Even in her peak state, Feifei would find it difficult to dodge an attack at this distance, let alone now that she is doing her best to simply walk.

But it was then that Uer's Claw Attack, which was just about to hit Feifei, suddenly stopped right in front of her.

It wasn't that Uer decided to stop at the last moment, but simply because he couldn't move any more!

His Skeleton Dragon Body was locked in place. When Mino Jan looked at him, he got shocked! Purple Lightning was wrapped around Uer's body as if they were chains. Uer had to do his all to simply turn his Skeleton Dragon Head.

Right where Krune's Wisp Core had landed, a completely cracked Core started to float again. It looked like that if anyone exerted the least bit of pressure, it would break apart. Krune's Ethereal Wisp Body had almost disappeared as well. Still, everyone in the room could only feel dread when they looked at that Wisp Core!

"Sigh... I've been putting so much effort into recovering my powers, but you guys just had to come out and cause problems."

Who else could he be other than Light Spirit?

If Uer's was in his human form, he would be sweating all over! As for Mino Jan and the other two guys, they were already drenched!

Uer could only think one thing.

'Even the old geezers at the Divinity Realm never made me feel like this.'

Mino Jan then came back to himself and immediately attacked Krune's Core. He had to save Uer at all costs!

But before he could even move, Purple Lightning appeared out on nowhere and zapped him in half! Mino Jan couldn't even understand how that happened before everything went dark.

The other two guys immediately tried to flee, but they couldn't move any further than Mino Jan did.

Uer immediately understood that it definitely wasn't the wisp the one who was doing that. Whoever that voice's owner was, he could totally kill him like an ant!

Feifei and Joiu were still there, so they looked at that scene with their eyes wide open! That helpless situation had turned around, just like that! Feifei, of course, had an idea about who it was, but she didn't say anything.

Krune's cracked Core approached Uer and simply demanded.

"Heavenly Fragment, give it to me."

Uer heard that and then started to laugh.

"Hahahaha! Keep dreaming, old geezer!"

Right after, Spiritual Energy started to gather at the center of Uer's Demon Core. He was planning to self detonated right there and then. Someone as crazy as he would never accept being controlled in that situation.

Light Spirit could only sigh once more.

"Idiot... Why must you make me use more energy?"

Purple Lightning then pierced Uer's Demon Core and went straight for his Death Divine Soul. In the next second, it was completely obliterated! Uer then went from a Peak Divine Soul Realm Demon Beast to an ordinary Demon Beast without any cultivation what so ever! His Self Detonation attempt obviously failed as well. After all, Demon Beasts without cultivation can't possibly control Spiritual Energy, much less gather it to self detonate.

Light Spirit Purple Lightning then obliterated Uer's Soul right after. Without a Soul, the Skeleton Dragon immediately fell apart.

The moment that Uer's Death Divine Soul was destroyed, Feifei, and all the others Heavenly Fragment Owners from the Luvile Universe felt Uer's Heavenly Fragment Presence!

Light Spirit then looked at it for a second and then at Feifei.

Before Feifei could even react, Purple Lightning struck her exactly where her Dantian was located. But surprisingly, she did not feel any pain at all! The next second, she felt that something struck her Destiny Divine Soul too. For a moment, her Divine Soul struggled as if it didn't want that to happen. But then, it calmed down. However, there was a difference now, Feifei could feel that her Divine Soul had become a lot stronger than it was until a moment ago. It was as if they were completely different entities.

Light Spirit looked at her and said.

"If you intend to keep staying with this idiot wisp in the future, you will need more power. Make good use of that Heavenly Fragment, it should help you catch up with Krune as well."

Feifei was taken aback by those words. But just as she was about to thank him, Krune's Wisp Core disappeared in a flash of Purple Lightning!

Boom!

One of the doors that connected to the room was then blasted apart by that same Purple Lightning. When Feifei and Joiu looked at that, they noticed that Three Cultivators and one Demon Beast were there as well.

Those ones were none other than Ricarte and Reiny's group!

Ricarte never felt so frightened in his life! He had arrived just a few seconds after Krune's battle against the Golden Dragonflies started. But he kept hidden, waiting for an opportunity to strike and take that Key for himself. Just as his group was about to act, Uer robbed them from their initiative, so they decided to stay hidden for a while longer.

However, they never expected to see what happened after Light Spirit appeared. They completely lost any intention of trying anything when they saw how easily Light Spirit Crushed Uer and the others. All they hoped was that their presence hadn't been noticed. Obviously, that didn't happen.

Ricarte's family had three Divinity Realm Cultivators, and one of them is at the 9th stage at that! But the dread that Ricarte is feeling while looking at Krune's Wisp Core far surpasses the fear that he felt from his family's strongest ancestor.

That was to be expected. Light Spirit is someone who came from the Higher Realms, not to mention that he was one of the strongest ones at his time. The Peak Divinity Realms of the Lower Realms are really nothing more than ants in his eyes.

Light Spirit asked him.

"Ricarte, right?"

Ricarte nodded.

"Y-Yes, s-senior."

Light Spirit then used his purple lightning to point at Feifei and Joiu.

"You are going to protect this Wisp Core and those two over there until they recover. Do you understand?"

Ricarte nodded vigorously! How could he ever try to refuse that order?

Light Spirit then released some Purple Tribulation Lightning, which entered the bodies of Ricarte, Reiny, and the other two guys there were with them.

Ricarte and the others felt frightened for a second, but then... nothing!

"Don't worry, this is just a little insurance that you will keep your word."

In fact, Light Spirit was simply fooling them. He didn't leave anything inside Ricarte and the others at all! Of course, Ricarte's group didn't know about it.

"D-Don't worry, senior. We will take good care of them."

Light Spirit then returned to Feifei's side and sent her a Divine Sense message.

"The rest is up to you."

Before Feifei could ask anything else, the purple lightning around Krune's cracked Core disappeared, and he fell on Feifei's hands.

She looked at that and felt pain in her heart. It looked like if she wasn't careful while carrying him, his Core would break apart at any shook.

Ricarte then gritted his teeth and said.

"Hey, you three! We need to leave, this commotion will definitely attract unnecessary attention."

Feifei and Joiu nodded at each other, and they left with Ricarte right after. Of course, Ricarte had to give them a helping hand since they couldn't move properly with their injuries.

A few moments after the place became empty, Mohie Zarks' projection appeared and looked at the direction that Krune's group went.

"An Ascender. This wisp's background seems to be a lot more complicated than I thought... Well, that is not my problem."

After that, Mohie Zarks projection disappeared as if he had never been there.
