Is that a Wisp?
chapter-520

While Krune's group was going back to the Wisp Main World, the news about the Holy Land disappearance spread like wildfire! It soon reached the point where it left the Dalin Universe as well. The Holy Land was one of the most important Dimensional Realms, so there was chaos everywhere because of it.

However, because it was a God-Level Dimensional Realm, even the Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts with Destiny Major Divine Souls had a hard time divining anything.

As for the participants, they were kept in the same place for investigation. However, everyone felt like it wasn't of much use. After all, the Holy Land was brought somewhere else, so spending their time with those guys didn't make much sense.

Soon, the Universes with Heavenly Divine Soul Owners and others with Fragment Owners began to complain and ask to let their participants out. After all, the chances of their own members having something to do with it was low. Dalin Universe Management started to feel pressured due to the enormous numbers of Universes complaining. The Universes protecting Dalin were the strongest ones, but that didn't mean they could buy a fight against everyone else.

Besides, the investigations were bringing back the same results, and everyone's declarations were identical. It's just that they had different points of view and ideas as to why such a thing happened. Sure, there were things like Soul Search. Whatever someone of them could be hiding would definitely be found out.

However, Dalin Universe Management definitely couldn't use it. Let alone the fact that the soul could be damaged. Just how many secrets each of those minds had about their own Universes? There is no way the powers behind them would accept it. First of all, protecting the Holy Land was Dalin Management's duty. If they failed, that was their problem.

In the end, everyone was released after not getting any useful information.

Wamie was able to enter the 2nd Stage of the Divine Path Realm before the end of the Holy Land. Obviously, the moment she was released, the Dalin management contact her, saying that she should go back to her Universe. The limit was the 1st Stage, but since she got it during the Holy Land event, they could only inform her now.

Wamie didn't waste time and immediately left for the Official Spatial Gate that leads outside the Dalin Universe. From there, she would leave and then contact the All Life Sect Sacred Land in Luvile. Her ancestors would then open a Spatial Gate, and she would finally be able to go back. Of course, it would take some time before she arrived back in the Luvile Universe.

Back on Krune's side, they had just arrived at the Wisp Main World. Of course, the number of wisps who knew that Cinty had left was minimal. So there wasn't any kind of party waiting for her or anything. As far as everyone knows, Cinty had been secluded there. That wasn't hard to believe since everyone knows that she entered the Divine Path Realm. That being said, she has achieved immortality, so going into seclusion for prolonged amounts of time was common.

The first thing Cinty did after 'leaving her seclusion' was to call the Wisps responsible for the Myriad Wisps Technique spread plan to report everything to her.

"Things are becoming complicated now. With the constant stream of wisps leaving the Dalin Universe, the Dalin Universe management is becoming suspicious. A few Soul Flames of the wisps we sent out were even extinguished during the time they were stepping outside. Obviously, they were being captured as soon as they did so and ended dying."

"However, they all head the memories about the plan and technique sealed. Thanks to that, nothing had been found out until now. At least, that's what we think."

Cinty nodded.

"We already expected that such a thing could happen. We also warned every single one of them about the risks, and they accepted it."

She then changed the topic.

"You said that a lot of them are being captured, but not all, right?"

The wisp confirmed.

"Correct. Many wisps were going out after receiving the full training, so the majority still passed through without any problems. However, chances are that they are being observed. I believe it won't be long before the Myriad Wisps Technique is found out. Maybe it has already happened, and we just don't know yet."

Cinty smiled after hearing that.

"No problem, continue with the plan. Whether they find out or not, it is too late now. Besides, the second phase of the project is about to start anyway. If Dalin Management really knows, then it won't be long before the news spread. In fact, increase the pace and number of wisps participating in the plan. The more, the better."

That wisp soon moved out to execute the order.

After that, Cinty received an enormous pile of documents and things like that to deal with. As the Wisp Queen, she was the voice of the wisps. After more than 10 years of absence, a lot of matters accumulated for her to resolve. When she looked at all of that, she even felt a headache coming her way.

Krune wasn't much better either. He had left a lot of Purple Flame Pills and Purple Flame weapons ready for seeling after he departed to the Holy Land. So in the eyes of the Dalin Alchemist and Blacksmith organizations, he was still crafting everything as always. However, there came a time when the supply was cut out abruptly.

At that time, Krune (or Jolk) announced that he was close to a breakthrough, so he went into seclusion as well. Therefore he had been missing for the last 5 years. It didn't matter how many times the Alchemist and Blacksmith organizations tried to contact him, the wisps of the Wisp Main World simply said that they didn't know where he went.

Now that Krune was finally back, he got an enormous pile of requests. That was obvious since the Purple Flame Pills and Equipments were highly required. Of course, he also got all the payment for everything that was sold during that time. When he looked at the mountain of Spirit Stones, his eyes couldn't sigh.

"So much Spirit Stones. Still, the spatial rings of those young masters who participated in the Holy Land gave me even more."

Ten years of Holy Land made Krune accumulate enormous wealth. It wasn't only Spirit Stones, those Spatial Rings he got had several more things that could be sold or used by him and the others later. Simply put, Krune didn't even need to sell Purple Flame pills and equipment anymore if he didn't want to.

With a wave of his hand, all Krune's Kaleu Tribulation Shields appeared in mid-air around him. Krune could totally see the several marks of his own reforging and repairings. Some of them weren't even fixed. As his cultivation level increased, the Shields' usefulness began to drop just as fast. A lot of them had broke during the Divine Path Realm Heavenly Tribulation as well.

"It's time to retire these shields."

With another wave, all the shields were put away. In their place, a mountain of Diamond-Like material appeared. Sure enough, that is the crumbled body of the Diamond Golem that Krune and Laex defeated back then. This is the body of a Divine Demon Beast who had comprehended the entire Major Law of Earth, so its resistance could be imagined.

"There is no doubt that Shields made of the Diamond Golem body would be much better than my Kaleu Tribulation Ore ones. However, this isn't a material compatible with my Purple Tribulation Lightning."

Heavin, who was on his shoulders, then suggested.

"Why don't you trade it for something of equivalent strength like the last time?"

Krune pondered a bit but shook his head in the end.

"No, I have the cultivation necessary to become a Stars Path Blacksmith now. I believe there was a way to deal with these kinds of issues after that, let me check where I saw it."

Krune then accessed the Blacksmith Network and soon found what he was looking for.

"Indeed, here it is, the Elemental Forging Change, a Stars Path and above technique. It won't be as good as making shields with Lightning Related materials, but it will get very close. However, the Diamond Golem Race body is an excellent Stars Path Material. Its resistance more than makes up for the loss of Lightning Compatibility. It will be quite hard to find an equivalent replacement for this golem's body. After all, it is still a Divine Demon Beast's one."

Heavin nodded.

"Since that's what you have decided, then so be it. However, you are still quite far from the Stars Path level. Can you reach it before the Heavenly Competition four years from now?"

Krune smiled as he looked at the enormous list of Purple Flame equipment requests in his communicator.

"I will definitely try it. This time, I won't have anyone forging my shields, I will make all of them myself."

Heavin then looked at all of those materials before saying.

"In that case, I believe there is enough for me to use too, no? I want to move out before the Heavenly Competition starts."

Krune immediately nodded.

"This Golem's body was enormous, so I still have a lot of his body in my Spatial Ring. Let alone 38, I can even make a hundred or more shields, and there would have material to spare. Besides, it is indeed a good idea to make your new body with it. However, you will need to wait for me to become a Stars Path Blacksmith before I forge or refine it."

Heavin didn't mind.

"That's not a problem. If I want to use a Stars Path Material, I will need to become a Stars Path Puppeteer myself too. Thankfully, we don't lack spirit stones now, so I can buy all the materials for my practice as well."

Krune pondered a bit before asking.

"Will you still use the Parrot Puppet design?"

Heavin pondered a bit before shooking his head.

"No, it is due time for me to give Feifei's parrot back. However, I haven't decided what I will do yet. I'll think about something later. Maybe I'll make a Dragon or a Phoenix. Hahaha!"

Krune smiled and didn't comment. Ultimately, that was Heavin's decision.

Heavin then took flight and left the room. He had his own place to practice his Puppeteer skills, after all.

"Well then, shall I start?"

Unfortunately for Krune, he didn't have the chance.

"Start your head!"

Feifei suddenly appeared beside Krune and dragged him back to their bedroom. Well, let's just say that ten years without 'action' was quite hard for Feifei to bare with.

Fie was in the living room when she suddenly saw her mother bringing her father back to their room. Seeing that, she couldn't help but smile.

'It would be quite nice to have a brother or a sister.'
