Is that a Wisp?
chapter-493

Buz!

'Hmm?'

As soon as Fie appeared on the 10th Floor, Light Spirit immediately detected her presence.

"Krune, Fie has appeared. Let's go."

Krune's eyes immediately lit up after hearing that. Without wasting any time, he left his hiding place.

"Which direction?"

"To that side."

Krune returned to his wisp form and activated his Tribulation Lightning Layer to hide from Divine Sense. Right after, he departed at his fastest speed.

*Brumm!*

At the moment, Krune was definitely not slower than any other early stages Divine Path Realm, maybe even faster. However, he didn't need to move for too long. Little Arty was in control of the teleport formation before they left Origin Dimensional Realm, so he teleported her quite close to Krune. It only took Krune around 30 minutes to reach her.

"Fie!"

"Dad!"

Krune immediately hugged Die after returning to his human form. As for Fie, she couldn't hold her tears while hugging him back. It wasn't after an entire hour that Fie finally calmed down. Well, even Krune took quite some time to do the same.

"Fie, just where have you been so far?"

"Ah!"

Only now did Fie remember Little Arty attached to her necklace.

"Dad, let me introduce you. This is Little Arty!"

Krune looked puzzled at the rainbow-colored pearl. Other than the colors, he couldn't feel anything from it. But it was then that Light Spirit said.

"God-Level equipment with an Artifact Spirit!"

"What?!"

A second later, the pearl floated by itself and complimented Krune.

"Hey there, I'm Little Arty, the Holy Land's Artifact Spirit."

"Holy Land Artifact Spirit?"

Fie nodded.

"When I teleported from the first Light Pillar, I ended on the same floor as Little Arty. It was him who kept me safe and trained me until now."

Krune looked at Fie and checked her cultivation.

"Soul Forging Realm?!"

Fie nodded while showing a proud expression. It's just that it looked quite funny with her red eyes after crying so much.

It was then that Little Arty told.

"I had to train her. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to resist the 10th Floor Godly Energy."

Little Arty and Fie began to explain everything. Fie had a lot more to talk, so they stayed there for quite some time before everything was over.

Once they finished, Krune immediately thanked Little Arty.

"I don't know how to thank you enough. I had no idea that each floor had separated dimensional realms. I've been extremely worried about her so far, so it is good to know that Fie was fine the entire time."

Little Arty explained how he doesn't have the authority to change anything during the time the Holy Land was open. So he couldn't simply help Feifei and the others either. The only thing he didn't mention was that he took Fie as his new Master.

"Little Arty, can you show me where Feifei and the others are?"

"Unfortunately, for certain reasons, I can't at the moment. However, I checked on Feifei and the others some time ago. Most of them seem to be doing pretty fine by themselves."

"The ones without much talents stayed on the lower floors on purpose, which helped them avoid danger against higher level cultivators and demon beasts. As for those who were strong like your friend Laex and Feifei, they are making their way here. Well, Laex arrived before you anyway."

Krune nodded.

"I know, but even though this 10th floor has only one Dimensional Realm, it is too hard to find someone. I looked for Laex but couldn't find him in the end."

"That makes sense. From the 10th floor onwards, there will be just a single Dimensional Realm. That being said, they are several times bigger than the previous ones. However, since I checked on your friends before coming here, I naturally know where he is. It's just that he is quite far away, so it will take some time to arrive."

Krune's eyes lit up.

"Great! Let's go meet him, then."

Little Arty nodded and pointed the right direction.

"Fie, hope up on my back, we are going to move at top speed."

Fie happily hugged Krune from behind before the Tribulation Lightning Layer appeared around them.

Krune might be slower on his human form, but he was still at the Divine Path Realm level. Nevertheless, Little Arty said that it would take at least 5 days to arrive where Laex is at this speed. Krune didn't mind, though.

On the way, Krune began to ask other questions.

"Little Arty, you are a God-Level Artifact Spirit, right?"

Little Arty was surprised that Krune knew it.

"You can tell?"

Krune nodded, Light Spirit had given him a general explanation of how Artifact Spirits were born.

"From what I know, Artifact Spirits are extremely rare. And that is already considering the Higher Realms, let alone this place where we are in. Considering that you are the Holy Land Artifact as well, there is no doubt that you are at the God-Level."

Little Arty had to admit that there weren't many options available when guessing it.

"That is correct, I'm a Dimensional Godly Energy Sphere. I'm a type of Energy Gathering Equipment that has been modified by my Master. Simply put, I can drag loads of Godly Energy regardless of the place I'm located at the moment."

Krune was surprised to hear that.

"Even if you leave the Holy Land?"

Little Arty laughed after hearing that.

"The Holy Land is part of me. It is thanks to my existence that it can have Godly Energy on all floors."

Krune couldn't help but feel excited. Doesn't that mean that his daughter got an unlimited supply of Godly Energy? Krune, obviously, was happy for her. As for taking Little Arty for himself, such an idea didn't even pass through his mind.

"What else can you do?"

"Hum... I guess you can consider me a huge Spatial Ring, and one that has no restrictions on the item's level to be placed inside. You can see that since even Heavenly Divine Soul Owners can enter it. In a certain way, you guys are all inside of my Spatial Space."

"Other than that, I can provide Godly Energy during battles, so anyone wearing me would be much stronger due to that. Of course, it all depends on the level of the person or beast. They can only control so much Godly Energy depend on their level."

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"Wait, if you are a piece of God-Level equipment, how can someone at Fie's level use you? There were supposed to be a limit to the level of equipment that she can manipulate."

Little Arty agreed with Krune.

"You are correct. Fie shouldn't be able to control a God-Level Equipment, at least not one without an Artifact Spirit."

Krune immediately understood what he meant.

"I see, you can control your own power, so you can make it so that Fie can use you too. It's just that since you have to match her cultivation, there is just so much you can do in that state. Am I correct?"

Little Arty answered.

"Smart! That is precisely how it is. Since Fie is in the 1st Stage of the Soul Forging Realm now, I can provide her the amount of Godly Energy that matches her cultivation. But not more than that, else, her body and soul would be damaged."

"Of course, if she and you all enter my Holy Land Dimensional Realm later, you can have any amount you desire."

Krune's eyes lit up.

"Even Godly Energy Stones?"

Little Arty laughed after hearing that.

"Keep dreaming. My old Master made the Light Pillar tests so that no one can cheat. Once you pass it once and get your Godly Energy Stone, you won't be able to get any more from the same place."

Krune sighed in disappointment. Sure enough, it wouldn't be that easy.

Little Arty continued.

"But that is good already. If you can cultivate in an environment with Godly Energy at any time, that should be more than enough. You will all be in great advantage."

Krune had to admit that he was being too greed for his own good. Just who could say that they have Godly Energy available for them to cultivate at any time?

'Anyway, with Little Arty there, Fie would be able to protect herself much better.'

Little Arty then mentioned one last thing.

"Oh! I can also be used as the core of any formation level and still provide all the energy through my link with the Higher Realms. Well, but in that case, I would not be able to move around. Of course, you will have to wait for the integration of the Holy Land into me to finish."

Krune pondered a bit.

"That's quite a nice feature, but I don't know if I would have much use for it. After all, I can simply use Spirit Stones or other forms of energy in that case. I feel like it would be quite a waste not to bring you around. Besides, I would never confine a sentient being in a single place just because of a formation. That's just too sad."

However, what Krune didn't know was that the Frunkan Clan was seeking Little Arty precisely because of this feature. He totally failed to see the real scale of this ability. Little Arty could even support an entire universe formation on his own with his use of Godly Energy.

Fie laughed after hearing that.

"That's what I told him before I came out. Dad, did you know that he stayed alone in that gloomy place ever since the Holy Land began to open?"

Krune couldn't help but sigh after hearing that.

"Fie, Little Arty came out because of you, so promise me that you won't let something like that happen again."

"I promise!"

Little Arty couldn't help but feel a little moved.

'No wonder she is like this, her parents had taught her like that.'

It was then that Light Spirit spoke as well.

"Little Arty, right? I'll be direct, is Fie your new Master or are you just using her?"

Little Arty was taken aback. He didn't feel Light Spirit's presence at all! Not to mention that could also feel the dangerous tone on that voice.

"You are?"

"There is no need for you to know, I just want your answer."

Fie, on the other hand, immediately intervene.

"Little Arty would never do that!"

Light Spirit didn't care, though.

"I won't let him stay close to you if I don't trust him, so he better answer."

Little Arty didn't know why, but he felt threatened by Light Spirit's voice. As if this wasn't someone that even a God-Level Equipment like him could afford to offend. Still, he felt relaxed at the same time.

'It seems like it isn't only her parents who care about her.'

"Cough, cough. She is already my new Master. I accepted her blood not too long ago."

Light Spirit calmed down after hearing that. Since that is the case, he wouldn't be able to betray her. He didn't think Little Arty was lying since it would be way too easy for him to verify it.

Fie, on the other hand, had a shocked expression on her face.

"I am?!"

It was then that she remembered the drop of blood that she used on the pearl.

"Ah! Seems like I am, indeed. Hahaha! Little Arty, then you will need to hear everything I have to say."

Little Arty snorted after hearing that, though.

"I see, it seems like you are having quite a leisured time. Very good, I will put double the effort into your training next time."

Fie's face became pale instantly!

"Father, help me!!!"

However, after looking at Fie's cultivation and her strong foundation, Krune just requested.

"Little Arty, please take care of her."

"Leave it to me."

Fie wanted to cry but had no tears. Her father betrayed her so easily!
