Is that a Wisp?
chapter-394

Sometime later, the ethereal rainbow energy around Fie's body disappeared. Of course, Fie looked like to not have even noticed that.

Feifei, Krune, Ruik, Tiane, and everyone else looked at each other, puzzled.

Cinty couldn't help but laugh, though.

"It's okay. Once Fie learns how to control her Spiritual Energy, she will be able to control her wisp side as well."

Cinty then looked at Tiane and asked.

"So, how is your egg?"

It turns out that Tiane and Ruik's child will take a lot longer to come out. But that is to be expected, after all, different races always had different growth rates.

"As far as we can see, Liriu will still take another two or three months before coming out."

"Liriu?"

Tiane and Ruik nodded.

"That is the name we chose for him."

Feifei couldn't help but comment.

"That's a very cute name."

Krune and the rest looked at Ruik with weird faces. Can Quetzalcoatls be considered cute? If anything, they look very fierce instead.

Ruik, of course, noticed that. But he could only sigh in the end.

'Don't look at me, I couldn't convince her otherwise.'

Seeing that, Krune Dilo intervened.

"Well, if they are okay with it, I guess this is fine... right?"

The rest could only nod.

Cinty then decided to change the topic.

"Alright! Fortunately, everything went as planned, but don't forget that your promise with Hobbek and Rania is just a month ahead. So instead of using all your time pampering Fie, you should instead prepare as much as possible. I don't want to have to take care of someone else's child while I don't even have one of my own."

Krune and Feifei's expression turned serious after hearing that.

"Don't worry, we didn't forget what we are supposed to do."

Sometime later, Fie was finally satisfied and fell straight asleep. Krune and Feifei then cleaned her while she slept and put some prepared baby clothes. After that, Feifei sent Fie into a pocket dimensional realm box just like Krune's one back in the Luvile Universe. Inside, they had prepared everything like a bed, food, sprit stones, etc. The best thing is that Feifei bound that Small Realm with her Divine Sense. So anytime Fie woke up or cried, she would be able to feel it straight away.

Krune and Feifei had to practice in different places, so they couldn't exactly leave Fie alone. They also didn't want to leave it at the care of others, so that's when the pocket dimensional realm box came in. They could bring it anywhere they wanted, and once they stopped to rest, they could bring Fie out to play with her.

During the next month, Feifei focused on inscribing her Swords with formations. Also, with Fie out, Feifei's cultivation blockage disappeared, and it started to progress extremely fast. Maybe it is because her Divine Soul and Foundation haven't received much Spiritual Energy in the past year. But now that Feifei was free, it started to absorb Spiritual Energy and convert it into Elemental Source Energy at a breakneck speed.

Back then, when Feifei finished her breakthroughs after absorbing the Uer's Heavenly Fragment, she stopped in the middle of the 8th Stage of the Divine Sou Realm. Even though her pregnancy severely affected her cultivation speed, it was not like it reached a complete stop. So she had got closer to the next Stage.

With this sudden momentum in cultivation, the last month was enough for her to finally step inside the 9th Stage of the Divine Soul Realm. But after that, Feifei's Divine Soul thirstiness seemed to have been settled, and her cultivation speed came back to normal. However, Feifei could see that repeating this kind of process would not be a good idea in the future. It is too easy to damage one's Foundation if they keep using it too often. In the end, steady progress is the best way.

After Feifei finished inscribing her Swords with the Spiritual and Elemental Source Energy Connection Formation, there were only a little more than two weeks before they had to leave for Jionin City in Heras Planet. So Krune refused Feifei's offer to inscribe his Hexagonal Shields for now. After all, he felt that it would be better for Feifei to get used to her Sword Array first. Having just a few of his Shields with the Formations wouldn't change Krune's combat prowess that much. But in Feifei's case, getting more proficient in the Swords Array was definitely a great boost in attack power.

As for Krune, he finally reached the Initial Stage of the Displacement Sub-Law.

'Compared to reaching the Advanced Stage of the Contraction Sub-Law in one day, this one is really too time for me to understand. I wonder if I will fall into a state similar to that day when I started seeing Space Laws. Even after 4 months, I was only barely able to understand the Initial Stage of Displacement with almost my entire mind on it.'

Still, that was the threshold for something he had been thinking about ever since he started seeing the Space Laws.

Krune left his cultivation room and flew a few hundred meters above his house.

"Alright, if the information is right, I should be able to do this now."

Space Laws started to gather around Krune's hand. A lot of Spiritual and Elemental Source Energy also poured out of his Foundation. Krune then concentrated on his target and suddenly made a slash motion of his hand.

Space started to split apart, and the Space laws could now be clearly felt inside on that fissure in Space. However, they were extremely chaotic. It would be impossible to comprehend anything looking at that. But that wasn't the reason why Krune made that fissure in Space, what he wanted to do was to completely open a Spatial Gate!

'This is not enough, I will be smashed by the Space Laws if I enter it in this state. Still, this is already very good for a first try.

...

Again!'

Fissure after fissure kept appearing above Krune's house. Some wisps which were passing close noticed that but didn't say anything. That is the 'next wisp king's' house, after all. Whatever he is doing is not of their concerns.

It was not before resting four times and over a hundred fissures that Krune finally created a stable enough Spatial Gate. Krune could feel what was on the other side as well. He then took a deep breath and entered it.

Even though the Gate was somewhat stable, it is still a fact that it was very crudely made. Because of that, Krune received some damage to his body during the passage, nothing serious, though. Once he appeared on the other side, he couldn't help but feel delighted!

"Success!"

Krune couldn't go that far. It was only a 400km distance or so. Of course, this entire distance only took him a second to travel, which was the time he took to traverse the Gate. As fast as the Tribulation Lightning Movement might be, it is far from allowing Krune to cover such a distance in a second.

"Alright, now, time to try something else."

Krune brought all his shields out and charged them with as much Spiritual and Elemental Source Energy as possible. After that, he covered the Shields in Tribulation Lightning, which made them immediately disappear from others' Divine Senses. Lastly, but not least, Krune started to infuse them with his Wills, just like what he did with the broken Flying Shield Pieces and Lucio's Jade Slip.

Although the Tribulation Lightning covered the Shields against others' Divine Senses, it was totally different for Krune. So he used that to connect to his Wills inside them. After that, Krune spread his Shields around and started to manipulate them while performing an imaginary battle.

Time passed, and Krune had been doing his combat simulations for an entire day.

"Good! I don't believe anyone can expect something like that. Those two don't know just what is expecting them."

Krune tried to open a Spatial Gate to go back once more. Of course, it was still difficult for him to do it at once. However, he only needed twelve tries to succeed this time. Compared to the previous over a hundred attempts, this is a monstrous improvement.

Krune made the other side appear far above his house as well. After that, he went to the place where Feifei was practicing her Sword Array. When he arrived there, he noticed that the Nine swords were on the ground beside Feifei while she was feeding Fie. Tiane was also beside Feifei and looked at the two with some jealously. Her own kid still needed some time until it came out of the egg, and even after that, it wouldn't be the type that needs milk to start with.

As mentioned in the past, Tiane had always lived with the humans in the Wang Clan, so mothers feeding their children was the common thing for her instead of the common way of birds and snakes. That's why she couldn't help but wish a little for that sensation as well.

Krune gave Feifei a kiss and patted Fie's head before asking.

"What are you two doing?"

Feifei smiled.

"Tiane was helping me a little with the Swords Array by being my opponent. She is very fast in her Demon Crow form. Especially when she uses her Wind Element and Laws. So it is very hard to control the Array to catch her."

Tiane sighed.

"She says that, but I have to go all out to escape her Swords Array range. Two weeks ago, I didn't even need to use my Wind Element, let alone my Laws. But look at me now, I'm already tired after just 20 or so minutes dodging her attacks. To think that this is just the first level of the Nine in Nine Swords Transformation. I feel scared, just imagining how crazy the last level is. If Feifei used her Destiny Divine Soul, I wouldn't last even half of that time."

Krune was surprised by both sides, though. The Swords Array that Feifei started practicing two weeks ago is already at such a level. As for Tiane, the fact that she can still resist this long against such a top-notch Swords Array is amazing considering the difference in cultivation. Let's not even mention that Feifei has two Heavenly Fragments!

Tiane then looked concerned at Feifei.

"It is tomorrow, right?"

Feifei nodded.

"I will leave Fie in your care during that time. So make sure to take good care of her while I'm out. I will make sure to come back as fast as possible."

Krune just laughed.

"Don't worry, we are definitely coming back."
