Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 190 More Questions.



"Hmph! Is that how you treat your Dao Companion? Trying to hide your presence so that I can't tell that it was you?"

Light Spirit knew that it was a trap for him to fall, but he couldn't let Cilia open her mouth.

"Sigh. That was a long time ago, you know very well that we aren't as we were before anymore.

Cilia went silent for a few seconds.

"What happened with our Taliu?"

That was the reason that Light Spirit didn't want to appear, but he knew that he should give her an answer now.

"He failed."

Krune felt like the voice inside the tower trembled a little.

"I see... Was it because-"

Before she could finish her question, Light Spirit cut her.

"Yes, it was."

Cilia went silent again and then said.

"Anyway, let's go back to business. What happened to you?"

Light Spirit then answered.

"I was imprisoned, and my Tribulation Lightning power stolen. It is now used by the old villainous heavens as a trial for those who cultivate."

Cilia didn't seem surprised by that.

"I see, just as I expected. How come you would allow it to be used for something like that? Back then, you were the only one able to use it, after all.

Light Spirit confirmed and then asked.

"What about you? What are you doing inside this tower? Also, how come you are here in the Divine Path Sect?"

Cilia then said.

"My body was destroyed. This tower is what prevents my soul from dissipating. As for the Divine Path Sect, I made a deal with its founder, so I'm acting as a protector of some sort."

Light Spirit was taken aback.

"Acting as protector? Does it mean that you recovered your power?!"

Cilia answered.

"Not really. I do have the power to protect this Sect, but I'm not even close to what I was in the past. Also, it is not that I recovered it, but that I was able to prevent some of it from dissipating."

Light Spirit immediately got disappointed.

"I see... Still, that is also good. If you are strong enough to protect a Sect of this size, you probably have a long time ahead of you."

"By the way. What is the deal that you made with the founder of this Sect?"

Cilia sighed after hearing that.

"I need a body, but to find one compatible with my Soul is as hard as finding a specific drop of water in the ocean."

It was then that Cilia noticed something.

"Wait! Since you also lost your body, you should be in the same situation as me. How come you are sharing this kid's body? Is his body compatible with you?"

Krune heard that and felt alarmed, but right after, Light Spirit started to laugh.

"Hahaha! Compatible? Are you kidding me? Put some effort there and look at what race he is from before saying such baseless things."

Cilia got puzzled but then used some of her power to penetrate through Krune's human body barrier. Even the Race Covering Technique that he got from Hasik couldn't stop her prying at all!

"What?! A wisp?!"

Cilia sighed and said.

"Now, I understand. Indeed, it would be impossible for someone like you to ever posses a wisp body. Still, what are you doing there? How did you enter someone else's core?"

Light Spirit said.

"You are looking down on me way too much. Did you forget who I am? Tribulation Lightning is my power, and I can use it for several other things other than just attacking."

Cilia felt like she was enlightened!

"Haha! You scoundrel! Only you would try something as crazy as using Tribulation Lightning Source to hold your soul. I'm even more impressed that you didn't die during the process. Still, why did you chose a wisp? That makes no sense."

Light Spirit then sighed.

"It's not like I could choose, you know? You just said it yourself, trying to use my Tribulation Lightning Source to hold my soul was a dangerous attempt. After I escaped my imprisonment, I only had time to use the old villainous heavens' Tribulation Lightning power to scan those who were going through their Heavenly Tribulation. Then I selected someone who had low cultivation to prevent myself from being detected by the target. In the end, Krune was the lucky one!"

Krune had heard before from Light Spirit that he was selected by coincidence, and it seemed that it was really the case.

Cilian then asked.

"Do you have a way to recover?"

Light Spirit immediately answered with confidence.

"Yes! In fact, I have already recovered a tiny bit of my power. But my rate of recovering is determined according to Krune's cultivation level. The higher his realm, the faster my rate of recovery will be. Still, I'm not sure when I can leave his body by myself. But I'm different from you, I lost my body, but it hasn't been destroyed. It is still there, locked by this universe heavens, and I will do everything to take it back!"

Cilia felt happy for Light Spirit.

"That is good. Nothing is better than having your own body instead of taking someone else's."

Cilia then thought about another thing.

"About our Taliu, can you enter the-"

Light Spirit once more cut her in the middle.

"I can't, I'm not at a level where I can do it at the moment. Besides, it has been way too long. Finding Taliu might be even harder than it is for you to find a compatible body."

Cilia then didn't touch the topic anymore.

She was about to ask something else when suddenly, she stopped.

"Lani is back. We will talk about it another time."

Light Spirit understood that she didn't want to reveal his presence and immediately went silent as well.

A few seconds later, Lani appeared just beside Krune.

He then stepped forward and bowed to the tower.

"Senior Cilia, sorry for not stopping my grand disciple from coming to your place."

Cilia heard that and then laughed.

"Hahaha! There is no problem at all. Still, I heard that he is Lucio's disciple? I didn't expect that that brat would get a disciple in the end. He was always against it, after all. But look at it now. Not only he got one, but it is also a wisp."

Cilia then looked at Krune from inside the tower and said.

"Kid, don't misunderstand me. I'm not looking down on the fact that you are a wisp. In fact, I can feel your enormous talent. As long as you reach the Divine Path Realm, you won't need to care about Life Span anymore. Since Lucio chose you, I'm pretty sure that you have what is needed to get there."

Lani was surprised that Protector Cilia seemed to like Krune this much, but he didn't ask why is that.

Krune didn't mind, though.

"It's okay. I know very well about my own capabilities. Although the majority might think little about me because of my life span, I'm confident to cultivate fast enough to surpass it. In fact, I'm just 11 years old. But look at me now, 4th stage of the Core Formation Realm. I still have 29 years before running out of life span. Of course, I won't relax just because of that. I will do my best to make the disparity between my remaining time and my cultivation to be further and further away."

Cilia laughed again.

"Good, you can go now. I'm someone from too long ago, so nothing that I know can help you with the actual universe cultivation system. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing how far you can go."

Lani then looked at Krune and said.

"Alright, the other participants of the Program are already at the Spaceship, only waiting for you. I will bring you there now."

Krune nodded and bid farewell to Cilia. Once he gets some time alone, he will make his question to Light Spirit.

Cilia then said before they left.

"Lani brat, bring him back here once he enters the Divine Soul Realm. I think I have something good that just so happens to be of some help for a race like the wisps."

Lani was once again taken aback but nodded nonetheless.

"Yes, protector."

Lani then touched Krune's shoulder, and both of them teleported away.

Cilia looked at the spot where they disappeared and laughed a little before thinking.

'Well, that was a lie, though. How could I have anything good for wisps? I just want to check on Luvile's progress when that time comes. Sorry for that, Lani brat.'

A second later, a flash of silver light appeared in the room where the participants of the Program were staying. Right after that, Krune appeared there alone. In fact, it was already a room inside of the Spaceship that they were going to use. Lani explained to Krune that he is one of the ancestors of the Sect, so he couldn't appear that easy. It seemed to have something to do with the Sect's face. Krune, of course, didn't care about those things.

'It's probably one more of those useless habits of humans.'

Feifei noticed Krune appearing and sent him a Divine Sense message asking why he was late.

Krune couldn't speak about Light Spirit or Cilia, so he just told the part where his Grandmaster helped him to enter the 4th stage. Only then did Feifei notice that Krune really had jumped one more level, which made her happy for him.

Suddenly, an old man entered the room and introduced himself.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Ramon Gonie, and I will be overseeing the dimensional realms this time around. As I believe all of you already know, the dimensional realms were selected considering the overall strength of your groups. So deaths are well within the possibilities. I ask you to not take it lightly."

He then looked at Tasier, Lofa, and another three participants of the Program.

"As for you five, you will be sent into another Dimensional Realm. Simply put, your strengths are not enough to enter the same one as the others. It would be suicide, and you would only hold your friends back. But don't misunderstand. The other Dimensional Realm will present around the same amount of danger as the first one at your cultivation realms."

Tasier didn't mind that. He knows very well that with the difference in strength between him and Krune, he would really only hold him back if he stayed by his side. Instead, he is delighted that the Sect prepared a second Dimensional Realm that will give the same amount of danger for his cultivation level.

Lofa, of course, felt a little affected by the fact that Krune would be going together with Feifei. But she had already made her mind to not meddle between them anymore, so she stayed silent.

Suddenly, Tasier touched her shoulder.

"Forget it for now, and focus on the mission! If you hold me back, I will kick you out and proceed alone."

Lofa's mouth twitched.

"Who will hold you back, idiot bird? It will probably be thanks to my support that you will survive, don't forget it!"

Tasier just laughed after hearing that.

"Good! I'm looking forward to seeing you keep your words."

Lofa's mood then improved a little, and she started to discuss with Tasier how they would proceed during this time.
