Chapter 65 - Five Elements Nascent Soul (2/2)
Krune was puzzled
”Five elements nascent soul?”
Mile nodded.
”I don't know much about it myself, but those who get a rainbow core can get this type of nascent soul, it's said that their control will be matchless within the five basic elements, as to how much this control can help with their combat prowess, that I don't know, there is way too little information about it in our mercenary guild, or better, in our world, Makui Planet is too weak, that's an undeniable truth, because of that we know too little about the outside worlds.”
Krune wasn't disappointed, at least it shows that he isn't the first one to get a rainbow core, if one day he is successful in leaving the planet, he will be able to look for more information about that.
Mile then continued.
”Now, the rainbow core is one thing, but even if you have control over the lightning element, it doesn't explain why you are able to use the power of the Tribulation Lightning, that is the power of the heavens, it should be impossible for you to control it even if you have your rainbow core.”
Krune understood that as well, so he explained what happened during his Foundation Establishment breakthrough, of course, he left the part about his Spiritual Energy Meridians outside.
”So you let the tribulation lightning enter your little universe and guided it into your planet bit by bit, in the end, some of its energy lingered inside of the planet and struck your rainbow core during its formation.”
Krune nodded.
Mile took a deep breath, she never heard about something this crazy before.
”Your luck is out of the charts, just a single misstep and you would be fried wisp, but this is also good, with the power of the tribulation lightning I'm looking even more forward to see your future.”
”Now then, I will have to report it to the guild, but I will keep the fact that you are a wisp secret, you stay in your house for a few days, a rainbow core user is something that can't be taken lightly, the other guilds in and out of the Yule continent will do anything to take you away with them, fortunately, your rainbow irises weren't very apparent, so people didn't notice it before, as long as I bring a technique that conceals eye powers, you should be fine to walk around again.”
Everyone was puzzled.
”Eye powers?”
Mile remembered that she didn't explain it.
”Oh right, why do you think you can see through the others skills flaws and give them pointers on how to improve their own abilities? That's the power of the rainbow irises, a side effect of your rainbow core.”
Not only Krune, but Yusa too felt enlightened.
'I see, so that's why Yusa can feel the elements a lot better but can't get close to what I can do, she can more or less notice the flaws and give a few pointers as well, but when things get too profound, she is clueless about what to do when it is related to others, I always thought that it was because I had more Spiritual Energy Meridians than her or Lakin and Ruik, I thought that as long as they got more Spiritual Energy Meridians they would eventually match my perception, but it seems like it won't happen.'
Mile was about to leave when Ao made a question.
”Mile, why are you helping us? I understand that a rainbow core cultivator would be an amazing asset for the Mercenary Guild, but I still believe you would get a lot more benefits if you were to disclose Krunes identity as a wisp, even if you say that it really is for the guild's future, Krune is a wisp, his life span is very limited, there is only so much he would be able to make for the guild in the future anyway, so why is that?”
The air became heavy after that, everyone looked at her waiting for an answer.
Mile smiled and said.
”I won't lie that I'm not disappointed with the fact that he is a wisp, there is the life span thing and all. Let's just say that I'm trying to do a bet, a bet that he will go further than anyone expects, when that day comes, I hope he remembers this favor of today.”
Krune took a deep breath and said
”You have no need to worry, if I really get that far, I will definitely remember this favor.”
Mile then blinked at Ao and left.
Krune looked at everyone and said.
”Well, at least I know a little bit more about this core of mine, I also know that although the Spiritual Energy Meridians are marvelous, they aren't omnipotent, I always wondered why my control is so much better than Yusa or Lakin and Ruik, it probably has something to do with this perfect harmony that gave birth to the rainbow core like that she told us.”
Yusa and the others didn't care though.
”That's good, the Spiritual Energy Meridians gave us a great boost of power anyway, so even if we didn't get this perfect harmony, there is nothing to complain about.”
They weren't lying, their achievements have far surpassed what they could have ever hoped for, they are totally satisfied with the results, there is nothing to complain about.
Krune just laughed at that and then started to control his spiritual energy to heal his human form injuries, he would have to wait a few days to receive the technique to conceal his rainbow irises anyway, so he will only bind his time, it had nothing to do with believing Mile or not, but that he had no other choice but doing so.
At least, it didn't seem like she was lying, otherwise, she could have used the time he was unconscious to sell the information about him, in that case, he would have really be doomed, he let out a sigh and said.
”Let's wait and see what happens.”
He then focused on his injuries but at the same time on his tribulation lightning power in both his soul and rainbow core.
'What was that connection that I felt between the two powers of Tribulation Lightning?'
He tried to check the lightning in his soul first when he suddenly heard a voice.
”Don't bother me, I'm sleepy, come back later.”
Krune's expression became weird, did that lightning power just talk to him?
”I see, I'm still too much injured, I'm even hearing things now, I better go sleep a bit.”
It was then that he remembered one thing... He is a wisp, wisps don't sleep.
