Chapter 376 Bottomless Pit
The years continued to pass, and Cinty would be going to a different place every time she left the Wisp Main World. She also made sure to use different communicators and names every time she contacted Kiirion. But somehow, he would always found a way to come see her.
They got older, and their cultivations improved. Kiirion finally entered the Void Breaking Realm when Cinty was at the 3rd Stage. Thanks to that, Kiirion could get better missions, which gave more Spirit Stones. That made things easier for him to travel every time Cinty appeared.
Any idiot could tell that Kiirion liked Cinty, and it didn't take long for Cinty to yield as well. Still, until today, Cinty has never told him from what race she is or from where she came from.
Cinty sighed after finishing.
"And that is the whole story."
Krune couldn't help but ask.
"Doesn't that mean that the fact that I didn't become the new Wisp King held yourself back as well?"
Cinty laughed and said.
"You don't need to care about it. One of the reasons that I never told Kiirion the truth is because of my Lifespan. Even if you didn't have the Myriad Energies Technique and had become the Wisp King, I would still not tell him the truth. After all, I would die a lot earlier than him, so what was the point?"
"Besides, I don't know if the things will still be the same once he finds out that I'm a Wisp."
Feifei immediately shook her head.
"So what? Krune is a wisp too, but I don't care the least bit about it."
Cinty patted Feifei's head.
"Thanks."
She then got up and said.
"Anyway, I have to go back to cultivate. If I am successful in entering the Divine Path Realm, then I plan to tell Kiirion who I really am. So I have to make sure to not waste time."
But before Cinty left, Krune remembered to ask another important question.
"Cinty, do you know how a hybrid of Wisps and Humans are like?"
Cinty was surprised by that question.
"Did you not search for it on the network?"
Krune and Feifei looked at each other and shook their heads.
Cinty then laughed out loud and said.
"In that case, I forbid you two from doing so!"
Feifei and Krune were taken aback.
"Why is that?"
Placing a finger on her lips, Cinty winked at Krune and Feifei.
"That will be a surprise."
After that, Cinty returned to her cultivation room.
Krune and Feifei were surprised by that gesture and felt even more curious. However, they knew that Cinty wouldn't say that with bad intentions, so they decided to not check it themselves.
After that, they took the chance to leave as well and go back to their rooms.
"We just need to wait for Cinty to contact us back now. Once the Formation is completed, I will contact Olave."
Krune looked at the time after that and said.
"Anyway, I need to go back to practice my Blacksmithing. Go ahead and tell Tiane and Ruik about what we have planned."
"No problem, you can go do your things. I will go back to practice my formations as well after I pass by Tiane's room."
Krune nodded and gave Feifei a kiss before going to the nearest Teleport Formation. He had started his blacksmithing practice around a week ago after he completed the trade for the Kalue Tribulation Steel. Before he had his new Flying Shields ready, he didn't plan to leave the Wisp Solar System at all. Especially now that Feifei is pregnant. In the end, Heavin had to move his Puppets workshop to a place near the Blacksmith Organization Branch. After all, he can't stay too far away from Krune due to his Divine Sense range.
Feifei soon arrived at Tiane's room and saw that big Demon Crow on the bad. One must remember that different from humans, demon beasts usually get bigger as their cultivation grows. So, although Tiane wasn't at the height of a human yet, she was at least 2/3 of the size of an average one. Even Krune's Wisp Core was at least two times bigger than what it was back in the Makui Planet.
Because both Tiane and Ruik's races are egg layers, she didn't have a problem in staying in her Demon Crow form. In fact, it was a lot better for her to keep up that way since her body would work much better in her true form.
Feifei then sat beside the bed and asked.
"How are you feeling?"
Tiane couldn't help but sigh.
"Terrible. I guess that because we are from different races, my body is having to work quite hard to create my egg. I had taken a look at normal Demon Crows in the past so that I could understand my race better, so I know it shouldn't be this hard. Still, I feel a lot better when I'm in my Demon Crow form. When I change back to my human one, I feel like my life is being robbed by it..."
Tiane expression got angry and then exclaimed.
"It is all that idiot snake's fault!"
Feifei heard that and laughed.
"Well, you are still quite good. Don't Demon Crows usually only take around three months to lay their eggs? After that, you just need to take care of it. Look at me, considering its growth rate, I think that I might stay pregnant for more than 9 months. Don't forget that I will need to carry my own during this entire time."
Tiane couldn't help but ask.
"Wisps are originally energy beings. Doesn't your baby absorb a lot of Spiritual Energy because of that? I can tell that my one is quite hungry in this sense."
Feifei sighed and then looked around with her Divine Sense. She noticed that neither Krune or Ruik were around, so she decided to talk the truth.
"Don't tell it to Krune or Ruik so that they don't get needlessly preoccupied. But you are right, Krune's baby is a bottomless pit! This little guy or girl is sucking so much spiritual energy that I can barely keep up with it. Fortunately, there is no pain or anything like that, it is just that my own cultivation speed was reduced to a snail's pace. Anyway, if I happen to need more Spiritual Energy, I have more than enough Spirit Stones for that."
Tiane was taken aback.
"That much?! You are already in the Divine Soul Realm 8th Stage. Not to mention that you have the Elemental Meridians, how come you can only barely keep up with it?"
Feifei laughed and said.
"Human babies don't even use Spiritual Energy to start with, so how do you expect me to know? This is totally new for me."
Tiane immediately nodded.
"That is the same for Demon Crows. Our eggs don't use Spiritual Energy either. I asked Ruik a few days ago, and he said that his Snake Race, or at least, his Double-Headed Snake Specie's eggs, also don't use Spiritual Energy."
Tiane and Feifei looked at each other and seemed to have reached the same conclusion.
Tiane was the first one to ask.
"Could it be the Elemental Meridians?"
Feifei immediately nodded.
"I thought so too. That would also explain why my own is absorbing a lot more Spiritual Energy as well. After all, we know that Krune's Elemental Meridians are at a different level than ours. So his baby might have inherited its special traits. Besides, Krune is a being of energy to start with, so the Elemental Meridians only made things worse."
Tiane and Feifei then laughed at each other.
"It seems like some pretty amazing babies are going to be born."
Feifei then remembered why she had come here for.
"Oh, right! Let me tell you what Krune and I discussed with Cinty."
She explained everything about the Cultivation Monitoring Mark and the Alliance Seal, then she went to the fact that Krune decided to use Olave's favor to avoid it. After hearing all of that, Tiane couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Just how much do we own him already?"
Feifei shrugged her shoulder and replied.
"It doesn't matter, he is happy the way things are, and so am I. If there is an opportunity, just make sure to give your all to pay him."
Feifei then got up and stretched a little.
"Well, I'm going back to practice my formations. I intend to enter the Golden Stars Level in at most two weeks."
Tiane then asked, concerned.
"Are you fine to do that in your state?"
Feifei nodded.
"Although this bottomless pit won't let me cultivate, it is not bothering me with anything else either. Besides, you know as well as me that Formations are highly more reliant on Spirit Stones instead of the Formations Master Spiritual Energy. So it won't bother me much. Also, being pregnant doesn't affect my Laws comprehension, so I can practice my Formations without any risks."
Tiane sighed in relief.
"Then, that is okay. But if you feel like you are putting too much effort, you must definitely stop."
Feifei laughed after hearing that.
"Who is the older sister here, me or you? Don't forget that I'm 4 years older than you."
Suddenly, the room's door opened, and Ruik came in.
"Oh, it's Feifei! How was your talk with Cinty?"
Feifei pointed at Tiane.
"Ask her, I need to go back to my training. See you later!"
Feifei left the room and went to the training field she was using to practice formations.
