Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 162 Elements Regulation.



Back at the Divine path Sect, Krune was looking through Ian's technique. But after reading it for some time, his expression changed to amazement!

"This is crazy! Did he have a death wish?"

It turned out that Ian's technique was nothing more than suicide in Krune's eyes. Ian relied on the power of the wisp's Soul to cultivate! Simply put, he burnt away his own Soul in order to achieve faster cultivation and make breakthroughs. From the information that Krune got in the Cultivation Pavilion, Ian was still able to reach the Divine Soul Realm, though.

"How the hell did he do that? He should have died way before the Core Formation Realm, let alone Divine Soul."

But then, Krune thought about a possibility. Some treasures allow one's Soul de recover from injuries. The pills that Krune made with Dragon Essence Liquid are a good example. Perhaps, by using several of those types of treasures in a roll, he was able to cultivate all the way to the Divine Soul Realm.

Still, Krune also understood why Ian stopped at this Realm.

First, those kinds of cultivation resources are extremely rare and expensive. One can see that when they think how Elder Loni, who is at the Void Breaking Realm, reacted when Elder Mirian betted the Dragon Essence Liquid.

Second, it doesn't matter what kind of treasure or cultivation resource it is, it will lose its effects if one uses it too much.

Probably, Ian had bumped into some kind of inheritance and miraculously didn't die there. That place most likely had a lot of Soul related items that Ian used for his cultivation.

In the end, when those treasures finally lost their effect or Ian ran out of them, he lost the ability to cultivate further. That led him to his death when his life span ended. Still, Krune thought that this cultivation technique could come in hand in the future. If there comes a day when he must immediately make a breakthrough, he might use it at the moment to achieve that.

"Still, it is good to know that there has been a wisp that went this far on the cultivation path."

Krune then visited some other places while ignoring all the attention and returned to his house in the Inner Sect. He wanted to take a mission to get more points to use the gathering formation. Still, he already had a lot of spirit stones from the Entrance Exam, so he decided to use them first.

Soon, one week went by, and Krune finally was called over by the Sect Master. When he arrived there, he noticed that there was another person there too. He then entered Lucio's residence and arrived at the cultivation room.

Lucio then looked at Krune and asked that person to check him.

This person was one of the Sect Master's friends, Falanea. But there is one more thing, she is also a Destiny Core owner! She then sat down and concentrated on Krune, who was in front of her. Krune had no idea about what was happening, but since it was his Master who asked for that, he just let she does as she pleased.

Lucio then looked at Krune and said.

"Alright, just ignore her for now. I will now pass you an elemental regulation technique that I devised especially for you. From what I could see last time, the main issue in your cultivation at the moment is the fact that you can control all elements. Because of that, your Spiritual Energy is very similar to mine, it has several colors just like a rainbow. It turns out that they are not in perfect harmony, try to bring your Spiritual energy out and send it in a straight line."

Krune nodded and did as he was told.

Krune's spiritual energy then flowed out, and he commanded it to move as Lucio asked. Just as expected, it had several colors, as always. Lucio then did exactly the same and sent his own rainbow-like spiritual energy in a straight line. He then looked at Krune and asked.

"Can you see the difference?"

Krune hadn't paid attention to it before, but now that his Master told him, he could indeed see the difference. His spiritual energy colors looked like they were fighting to see which one would appear the most, and lightning had the biggest advantage. However, his Master's spiritual energy colors seemed to be moving in synch. The colors appeared one after another for the exact same time. It felt like the previous color gave its place for the next one willingly.

Because of that, his Master Spiritual Energy Line was very straight without any bumps or deformations. But what about his one? After seeing his Master Spiritual Energy Line, Krune wondered if he could even call his own a line at all! It was flooded with flaws all the way, and it could be called anything but straight, it was more like a random colored cloud.

"This... I always thought that my Spiritual Energy control was the best it could be, but compared to yours, I'm even ashamed to show it now."

Lucio heard that and laughed out loud.

"There is no need for you to worry, it is extremely normal for something like this to happen. You are still in the Foundation Establishment Realm, after all. You probably can feel how much smoother and easy to control my Spiritual Energy is to control, right?"

Krune nodded, and then Lucio continued to speak.

"I might as well tell you that I also have an Elemental Core, it's just that I don't use Tribulation Lightning. But forget about the Tribulation Lightning for now. Let's take other cultivators and demon beasts as an example."

"Once you arrive at the Core Formation Realm, depending on your talent, you wouldn't have a problem to control all five elements at the same time. Even if you aren't that talented, as long as you enter the Divine Soul Realm, it will definitely happen. At that point, using five elements at the same time will not be an issue."

"Still, there are elements which those cultivators and demon beasts are better at and others that they aren't. Because of that, they will focus on what they are good and leave the ones they are bad on the side, that's the common sense in the cultivation universe. But for us, Elemental Core Owners, we are good at all of them. Of course, there are exceptions for this rule out there, but let's not talk about it now."

"The technique that I'm passing to you will help regulate the interaction between the different elements present in your spiritual energy. At first, you won't feel too much of a difference, but it will present itself when you arrive at the Divine Soul Realm. At that Realm, you will come to understand just how harmful your actual control would be for your future progress."

Krune nodded, and for the first time, he acted as a real disciple. He could see that his Master was taking this teaching very seriously too. Krune then bowed and said.

"Yes, Master."

Lucio nodded and then pressed his finger on Krune's forehead. But suddenly, his eyes narrowed. Krune was a little puzzled but kept waiting anyway, only after a few seconds did Lucio finally remember.

"Oh, right! Your Soul is not inside your head like the other races but inside your outer Core. Open your foundation for me again, I will send this Spiritual Energy Regulation Technique directly into your Soul."

Krune finally understood why his Master did that and couldn't help but laugh a little. He then opened his foundation like the last time and let his Master's spiritual energy enter. Soon, that foreign Spiritual Energy reached his Planet foundation and sipped in until it arrived at the Planet's Core. It then touched Krune's Soul, and he could feel a stream of information flowing inside his mind. A few seconds later, that foreign Spiritual Energy disappeared as if it had never been there.

Krune then went through all the new information in his head and immediately started to operate the regulation technique. Lucio looked at that and nodded.

"In fact, I wanted you to practice my own regulation technique, but after what I saw in your foundation, I had to change it a little. The reason is that your Tribulation Lightning had boosted your control over the Lightning Element a lot more than the other elements. My technique took into consideration the fact that all Elements operate similarly, and your Lighting Element obviously isn't like that. But now it shouldn't give you any problems."

While Krune heard his Master talking, he continued to operate the technique. Soon, he noticed that it would be anything but easy.

"It's quite hard."

Lucio nodded.

"It is! I took over a month back then to get a basic grasp over this regulation technique, so don't worry about it, take your time and ask anything you want."

This was the first time that Krune felt like the old geezer wasn't that bad. At least, he really played his Master role very well.

A few hours passed, and Krune had stopped to ask questions quite a few times. Lucio then answered every single one of them to the best of his abilities, which helped Krune a lot during his training. The time continued to flow and night finally came, Lucio then noticed that it was getting late and decided to stop the practice for the day.

"Alright, that should be enough for today. Go back to your home and keep the practice up. Also, I believe that with your Soul Power, you should have no problem with splitting your mind in two to do two things at the same time. The regulation technique is different from cultivating, so there is no problem if you want to do both at the same time. In fact, it will even help you since you can see what happens when new Spiritual Energy arrives inside your foundation and the differences that it causes."

Krune nodded and stood up, after that he complimented his Master and went back to his residence.

After Krune left, Lucio turned to Falanea and asked.

"How was it?"

She then shook her head.

"It was the same thing, it doesn't matter what he does, the Destiny Energy around him simply doesn't move at all! It is as if he wasn't even here, the Destiny Energy can't feel his presence. He is the same as that Girl called Feifei from the Wang Clan. You are sure that his Core is an Elemental Core, right?"

Lucio nodded.

"Although his Core had Tribulation Lightning revolving inside, I'm absolutely sure that it is an Elemental Core."

Lucio then pondered a bit and said.

"But it looked a little different, not because of the Tribulation Lightning, but something else. If I tried to guess, I would say that his Elemental Core is a lot more developed than mine was in his cultivation realm. It looks like it is much better at the elements' control. How can I say it? It is as if it is a new version of an Elemental Core."

Falanea then took a deep breath and said.

"Then we should rethink that rumors that Feifei has a Heavenly Core, it might not be precisely that."

Lucio nodded and thought about that time when Feifei's spaceship stopped his own. Now he understands what that Girl found to be so interesting about Krune, maybe, they are the same!

'Well, I already accepted him as my disciple. So I'm sorry, but I'm not giving away now that you presented him to me.'
