Chapter 89 - Elemental Source Energy (2/2)

After moving around for a while, they finally focused on a single point and stayed there, Krune couldn't help but think.

'Did they find what they were looking for?'

Krune then asked little light if he had any idea of what was happening.

”No idea here, I've never seen this cultivation technique of yours before, but if I have to guess, the only thing available in that space is space itself.”

Krune was taken aback.

”Space?”

Little light continued.

”Haven't you noticed? In the exact point where the nine meridians are touching, there is nothing at all, there isn't air, there isn't spiritual energy, and much less any kind of element either, it's completely void of anything.”

Krune immediately used his Divine Sense to check and confirmed that Little Light was right, he can't feel anything what so ever in the point where they are focusing.

”Does it mean that they have sentience?”

Little light immediately disagreed.

”I wouldn't go that far, it's more like an instinctual move, I refuse to believe that a sentient being would be able to hide its presence from me.”

Krune let out a sigh of relief, little light is already more than enough, and his core wasn't a hotel after all.

Since Krune couldn't control them, he could only wait, little light was also curious so he also paid attention, the void area around the point where the meridians were touching was increasing bit by bit, Krune started to feel that if it continued like this, it might catch the attention of the guild, but that didn't happen in the end, after the arena increased to more or less two meters, it stopped expanding, it was then that the meridians that were inside of the void area started to shine, they retracted a little and then attacked the center of that void area.

Krune looked at that and was taken aback, that is because the meridians passed through some kind of barrier that shouldn't be there and reached the other side, little light understood what was happening and explained to Krune.

”They opened a spatial gate, it's connecting to something, it's just that it feels a little strange, the energy inside is somewhat familiar, what is it?”

Krune was already numb with surprises, the meridians were still connected to him, so he knows that they haven't left, but what is it that they are trying to take?

It didn't take long for the answer to appear, Krune could feel that the meridians started to absorb the power from the other side and that energy started to enter his core, that energy then started to take the space of his little universe at fast pace, Krune was alarmed since he doesn't know what it is, but even when he tried to check that energy, he couldn't identify what it was at all!

”I see, so that's what it is, now then, aren't you a lucky bastard?”

”Then tell me what it is, will you?”

Little light just laughed.

”It's just elemental source energy, nothing impressive, you would get in contact with it after breaking through into the Core Formation Realm anyway.”

Krune finally felt relieved, he knows what it is from what he heard from Shinja.

Elemental Source Energy is something that your foundation can help create to help your core nurture your Divine Soul, all Core Formation Realm cultivators, and demon beasts had to convert spiritual energy into elemental source energy if they want to progress further in their cultivation, this is also the reason why after you enter the Core Formation Realm, you can immediately gain a much higher control over the elements.

Light little then added.

”All the elemental energy in the universe comes from the elemental source, and that's why you can use spiritual energy to convert it back into elemental source energy.”

But then Krune thought about something.

”Wait, but my foundation isn't capable of creating this kind of energy yet, isn't that a problem?”

Little light simply answered.

”That's why I said you are a lucky bastard, those meridians of yours can directly connect to the elemental source and take its energy, and you don't need to care about using spiritual energy to convert into elemental source energy.”

Krune then asked

”Is there any use for this elemental source energy before Core Formation Realm anyway?”

Little light immediately answered.

”Of course there is, it is much purer than spiritual energy, so you can use it for cultivation instead of spiritual energy, it will reduce the chances of your foundation get unstable and improve the speed at the same time, it's very nice.”

Krune got excited, to think it's that good, but then he noticed something.

”But how come I still can't control my meridians?”

This time, little light didn't have an answer.

”Maybe they also need elemental source energy?”

Krune nodded and then focused on his Spiritual Energy Meridians, and sure enough, they were absorbing that energy, in fact, more than 90% of the energy was being used by them, only a small portion was reaching the end of the meridians and entering his core, Krune couldn't help but wonder what would happen to his meridians.
