Chapter 181 Your Poison Wouldn't Work.
Although there were more eyes than Krune expected, he isn't afraid of any of them disturbing Juji's breakthrough. After all, it would be the same as going against the Sect. Not to mention that Uncle Feng was also there, so Krune asked him to keep an eye on those guys.
Krune then introduced the wisp to Feifei.
"This is Juji, the first wisp entering the Foundation Establishment using the Myriad Wisps Technique. This technique is something that I invented, and it only works on wisps too."
Not only Feifei, everyone else was taken aback by Krune's words. Only now they tried to take a look at all the wisps' cultivation in the house, and the majority was at the 5th stage of the Qi Condensation Realm or higher! Krune then asked for everyone's communicator numbers and passed a copy of the Myriad Wisps Technique for them.
This is a technique that is being spread far and wide at the moment, so there was no point in Krune trying to keep it secret.
Uncle Feng took a look at the technique and immediately understood from where it derived.
"You used the Myriad Energies Technique to build it, didn't you?"
Krune nodded and then explained how it worked. Of course, he didn't tell things like the real Myriad Energies Technique or why this one only worked on wisps either. But he mentioned that wisps that cultivate it won't be useful as cultivation resources anymore.
Everyone was impressed by what Krune did.
First of all, he created a technique that only works on wisps using as a base the most common technique out there. Then he made it into a top-notch technique that allowed the wisps to reach the Foundation Establishment in at most three years! That is just too fast! Only their clan best cultivation techniques would be able to achieve such a rate of improvement, and they wouldn't be any better! Finally, he is also saving the wisps of the fate of becoming cultivation resources since their energy will be changed into something similar to the other races.
Uncle Feng looked at Krune and couldn't help but ask.
"Is it really okay for you to show us such a peerless cultivation technique? All the best technique of any of the big four are kept as the biggest secret, and they don't let anyone learn it that easily."
Krune then laughed.
"The technique is good, indeed, but the reason I created it was to save the wisps from their fate. If I don't spread it out to the wisps, what good will be there? So, at this very moment, this technique is being disseminated around all the Divine Path Sect territory! It will take a long time, but there will come a day where wisps can stand side by side with the other races."
Krune then continued.
"Besides, if you want to bring it back to your clan, I would be more than happy to see it happening. But considering that this technique is no secret to start with, your clan and the other two powers probably already have their copies. Still, this is what I want exactly."
Uncle Feng looked at that technique in his communicator and couldn't help but comment.
"The wisp race... will rise. Of course, that is considering that this technique really works as it says."
Feifei and the other Wang Clan participants that were there at the moment nodded. Krune also did the same. He knows that it is just the start, and he needs to see how this technique will fair in the future.
Krune then sent a Divine Sense message to Feifei.
"Anyway, Juji is the first one entering the next realm with it. Feifei, you have a destiny core, right? Can you take a look and see if anything will happen with him?"
Feifei nodded and did as she was told.
"It's a little hard to see since he has been close to you for some time already. As you probably noticed, your side-effect on the destiny energy also affects those close to you to a certain extent."
Krune nodded, Falanea, the Sect Master's friend, had already told him about it.
Feifei then put some effort into observing Juji's destiny energy, and after some time, she smiled.
"It is really quite hard, and I couldn't see much, but I can at least tell that Juji probably won't die today. Still, you better not tell him what I said. It might have a negative effect and make him take it easy. Such a thing might change the reading that I've done in the destiny energy, and he could still die because of that. Remember, the reading of destiny energy isn't absolute. The simple fact that we read it might be enough to change the initial outcome."
Krune nodded and did as Feifei suggested. But he was also happy to know that Juji would probably not fail as well.
"Alright, Juji, you can start anytime you want."
"Yes, ancestor."
With or without Feifei's readings, Juji was confident that he could succeed. He really spent a lot of time collecting and studying information about spaceships. With the wisps' innate high IQ, Juji is, without a doubt, an expert in the general concept of a spaceship.
He also had the chance to temper his soul in the Rainbow Sect pocket dimension, so he already has an idea of what kind of pain is waiting for him.
Soon, Krune and everyone were able to hear a 'crack' sound.
"Argh."
It doesn't matter how many times Krune hears it, he simply couldn't get used. But he was impressed with Juji's determination, though. The first time you attack your core is, without a doubt, the most painful one. Still, Juji only let out a small grunt. Krune then nodded and kept looking.
Lakin and Ruik were also there, and since they had seen a wisp's foundation establishment breakthrough before, they can tell that Juji was doing quite well too.
Of course, this was the case only for them. Feifei, Uncle Feng, and the other guys were still taken aback by that. They were using their Divine Sense to check what was happening, and they can see how the wisp is making its breakthrough.
Want Mo couldn't help but comment.
"This is crazy! Isn't the wisp's soul inside the core too? What if he fails? Besides, isn't that wisp doing the same as breaking his own soul apart?"
Tuesly Huviu, who was beside him, commented.
"Isn't that obvious? Failing in the Foundation Establishment means that your core is destroyed, and you will need to start again. But if it is a wisp, you are probably dead. As for the soul part, I guess they can only bear with it."
Krune heard that and commented.
"Did you think that my Myriad Wisps Technique was omnipotent or something? There is obviously a price to pay for that. So I have no doubt that a lot of wisps will end dying doing this process. Still, it is better than stay at the bottom for life. Not to mention that they can simply wait for when their life span is near the end to try as well."
Indeed, there is no such thing as free lunch in this universe. The reason that Juji is faring this well is simply because of the support that he has from Krune, Lakin, and the others. They know very well that it won't be so easy for the other wisps out there.
An hour passed without any big problems, and Krune recognized that Juji finished the most dangerous part. Feifei also sent him a Divine Sense message regarding that.
"It's all good now, his breakthrough did stir the destiny energy around him quite a bit, so I'm sure that he won't have any problems during it anymore."
Krune let out a sigh of relief and then turned to everyone.
"Alright, a wisp's breakthrough takes a very long time, so there is no need to keep looking at it. I reckon that Juji won't be finished before a month or two anyway. Come with me, I will make some food for everyone."
Food? Except for Feifei and Uncle Feng, the others were surprised by that.
'This wisp also cooks? Should the Sect Master's disciple really be wasting his time cooking?'
That was what they wanted to ask, but before anyone did that, they noticed a man appearing beside Krune like a ghost.
"Good! This Sect Master was starving after waiting for so long already."
Except for Uncle Feng, who had a similar cultivation realm, everyone in the room was frightened by his sudden appearance. Even Krune, who should be used to it already, felt his heart stop for a second. It was not that he wasn't expecting it to happen again. It is just that with Juji's breakthrough and Feifei's visit, he forgot about that possibility.
"Old geezer, if not because it would be against my principles, I swear I would poison the food and send you to the next world!"
Who else could it be other than Lucio?
"Hahaha! Do you think that any poison that you use would have any effect on this grandfather? Keep dreaming! Anyway, what are you making for eating today?"
Krune then sighed and told everyone what he was planning to cook. But no one of those who came to visit was paying attention to that anymore.
'The Sect Master's disciple likes to cook, and the Master himself likes to eat it. Is the Divine Path Sect this free?'
Lucio then looked at a particular direction and said.
"How long are you going to stay there? I told you that my disciple's food is quite good, so come out already."
It turns out that Lucio brought with him (although forced was more correct) the grand elders of the other powers too. They felt quite embarrassed to appear like this, but they couldn't simply ignore Lucio's 'hospitality.'
Then, Krune heard someone calling from outside.
When he opened his residence protection formation, his mouth twitched. Not only had the grand elders come, but even their participants of the exchange program came too. It couldn't be helped, though. The grand elders just didn't want to be in that situation alone. So, as per their orders, they came as part of the sacrifice too.
"Fine! I will cook for everyone too. It is not like I'm not used to making a lot of food anyway."
