Is that a Wisp?
chapter-378

Fortunately, the price of a Diamond Stars Formation is something that Krune doesn't have problems to pay anymore. More important, by what he could see from that strike just now, it was definitely at the levels of a peak Core Formation Realm.

As for Wirenth, his mouth was opened wide! His Hell Slash had never been so powerful like that. That had far surpassed anything he could do at the moment. He then looked at the Sword on his hand and saw that Purple Flame slowly disappearing.

"This..."

Krune came close to Wirenth and patted his shoulders.

"Very good. So, what do you think about it?"

Wirenth was taken aback for a second but quickly composed himself.

"Cough, cough. Is that Purple Flame the thing you really wanted to test?"

Krune nodded.

"Exactly. That's why I wanted a Swordsman to take a look."

Wirenth then stopped to think about that last strike and couldn't help but ask.

"Would you mind if we check again. That Purple Flame Effect was too sudden! So my attention was caught by it in the last moment and what happened after that."

Krune agreed with him.

"Alright, there are several Creation Formations here anyway. This time, I will adjust it to a level where that strike of yours won't break it."

Krune then apologized to the training field supervisor and quickly paid the price for the broken Formation. After that, Wirenth entered another one, and Krune controlled it from the outside while Ruik observed.

Another Boulder appeared. This time, Krune made it possible to resist the attack of a 1st Stage Divine Soul Realm. Wirenth then repeated the attack, just like the last time. Sure enough, his 'Purple' Hell slash left a deep cut that went halfway through and then lost its power. It didn't have the energy necessary to pass through the boulder.

Still, it didn't make Wirenth less excited.

'Reserve? Sell? To hell with that! This Sword will be my trump card from now on!'

Wirenth then took a deep breath and said.

"When th Purple Flame effect comes out, my Fire Element get mixed with it. Thanks to the Wind Element, the fire gets even stronger. But I noticed that the Purple Flame itself doesn't have much power. It is the mix with the other elements that bring out its true potential. The result is, as you can see, I can release an attack that has the power of an all-out attack of a peak Core Formation Realm. This Sword is definitely at the Eight Silver Stars level at the very least, probably even a Nine Stars! Also..."

Wirenth then kept explaining everything he noticed during his test. It wasn't before ten or so minutes that Wirenth finally finished talking.

"Good! I was right in asking for a Swordsman to try it out instead of myself. Well, Wirenth, as we agreed before, you can have it. I made it using Volcanic Spiritual Ore anyway, so it isn't anything expensive for me."

Wirenth quickly thanked Krune and put the Sword in his Spatial Ring. It would be impossible for him to refuse such a sword. After all, it was a lot better than his one.

Krune then bid farewell and left with Ruik. As for Wirenth, he returned to the Blacksmith Branch since he still had to repair his other Sword. He had decided to not use Krune's Sword unless he was in a dangerous situation. After all, having a treasure without the power to protect it is also considered a crime.

Krune and Ruik returned to the Forging Room. There, Ruik decided to ask first.

"Is that thing related to your Purple Flame Pills as well?"

Krune nodded.

"I used the Purple Tribulation Lightning Flame to forge that. Some of the properties entered it and created that effect. Just like my pills, it seems like the Purple Flames can increase the prowess of equipment as well."

Ruik nodded and then asked.

"Do you think I should use something like a Sword or other equipment?"

Krune pondered a bit and replied.

"You basically use your Poison and Dream Laws at the moment. So I can't really think about a piece of equipment that would be helpful for it. First of all, you had never used a Sword or anything else before, so you would need a long time to get proficient with it."

Ruik had to admit that Krune was right.

"I will give it some thought and see if there is anything I could use later."

Krune nodded and then changed the topic.

"So, what is it you want to ask about the Earth Essence Sub-Law?"

"Ah! That's right. It goes like this..."

Krune and Ruik then discussed the Laws for an hour. Although each one's comprehension of laws is not the same, they are still similar. So that talk helped Ruik to clarify a few points that he was missing. After they finished, Ruik returned to the Wisp Main World, and Krune resumed his Blacksmithing training.

Time passed, and soon, another three months went by. Today, Krune was back in the Wisp Main World because it would be Five Years since he and Feifei entered the Dalin Universe. Of course, as mentioned before, the chances of the 'coating' disappearing right at the five-year time is minimal.

By now, Feifei's belly had started to appear, although it wasn't anything impressive yet. As for Tiane, it seemed like a hybrid between Snake and Crow changed things a little. Demon Crows should have laid their eggs in at most Three Months after getting fecundated. However, Tiane could tell that she probably still needed another two months at the very least.

Krune still remembered the exact time their group arrived in the Dalin Universe, so he was looking at his communicator and sitting beside Feifei. Krune had even set up a countdown on it. Tiane and Ruik were also there, just to see if something different would happen. As for Xankruan and Dilo, they had left to do some missions together. Because Xankruan was close to the Soul Forging Realm, she wanted to try a few things first.

Krune and the others looked at the time and could see the numbers on the screen.

00:15:37.

"Hum... Once you start waiting for the time without doing anything, it really takes forever."

Krune couldn't help but agree.

"That's true. There are still 15 minutes left, so I guess I will make some food for us. What do you guys want?"

Immediately, everyone asked for the things they wanted the most. Recently, Krune noticed that both Tiane and Feifei's taste got quite weird as well, but he didn't mind it. Krune went to the kitchen and started preparing everything. Of course, to make everything that was asked, he would need more than just 15 minutes.

In the end, the countdown he had set up was finished while he was cooking. He momentarily came to the living room just as it was over. Still, neither Krune or Feifei could feel the presence of any other Heavenly Fragment Owner. Krune then returned to the kitchen and finished preparing the food.

Back in the living room, everyone was eating while talking.

Krune commented

"So, it was as we expected in the end. Both Feifei and I couldn't feel the other Heavenly Fragment Owners."

Ruik shrugged his shoulders.

"Isn't that good? We don't need to be afraid of them coming here to cause problems."

Feifei nodded.

"The main issue is the fact that both Krune and I aren't someone from this Universe, so it might turn out that we will be found out."

Tiane shook her head.

"I think that the chances of them thinking that you came inside illegally is very low. So you shouldn't be afraid of such a thing. Still, because Krune came from outside of the Dalin Universe, they will also find that the Wisp Protection Law doesn't apply to him. So they will not care if you are a wisp or not. As for Feifei, there is nothing to protect her from starting with."

Krune nodded.

"But that isn't an issue either. That is because the Wisp Protection Law is supposed to be something for when I'm outside the Wisp Worlds. As long as I'm here in the Wisps' Solar System, they would not be able to do anything. Of course, I don't plan on closing myself here. So when the time comes, I will be coming out with Feifei so that we can finish this."

Feifei agreed with him.

"As long as we are not in the No Law Zones, fights can only be carried by those at similar levels. You already got Cinty's promise that the Soul Forging Realm wisps will help you, so our preparations are as good as they could be."

Suddenly, Krune and Feifei's communicator flashed.

They opened it and saw a message from Cinty.

"The Stars Path Formations Master is arriving tomorrow to build the Formation."

Krune and Feifei's eyes immediately lit up!

"Great!"

They quickly told Tiand and Ruik as well about it, which improved the mood in the room several times.

"Alright! Let's put the serious talk behind and enjoy the food."

They ate and chatted happily. After everything was over, everyone returned to their own things. The Formations Master would only arrive the next day, so they still had to wait a bit more.

Feifei then entered the Dimensional Realm, where she was practicing formations, and looked around. She then took a deep breath and took out several Spirit Stones from her Spatial Ring. Immediately, she started to absorb the Spiritual Energy from them while touching her belly.

"Little guy, you are getting too hungry! If this continues like this, I don't know if I can keep up with you."

Feifei still hasn't told Krune about this absurd amount of Spiritual Energy needed to not make him worry. But it seems like she won't be able to keep it a secret for much longer if the rate of Spiritual Energy needed keeps increasing.
