Chapter 170 - Improvement. (2/2)

'I guess this is to be expected of the Sect Master. This isn't even the Cultivation Room, but the amount of Spiritual Energy is already this high!'

There was another thing that Krune wanted to test, as well. Exactly how much of the Spiritual Energy absorbed by his Elemental Meridians will turn into Elemental Source Energy? Is it the same 30% as Shinja, or is it more? He wanted to know!

Krune started to absorb the Spiritual Energy, and when it first appeared inside his foundation, Krune's eyes lit up!

'Great!'

It turned out that his Elemental Meridians converted around 50% of all the Spiritual Energy that came in, which means that half of the job was done by them alone!

'At this rate, if all I need is to recover the energy for battle, I cant fill me Elemental Core in just 10 minutes or so! As for cultivation, it will make it 50% faster to cultivate now. I really couldn't hope for more!'

10 minutes later, Krune got up.

”Okay, I'm ready!”

Let alone Lucio, even Ojilian and Falanea were surprised when he said that.

”Did you recover to your peak, or did you just recover some of it?”

Krune thought that there was no need to lie to his Master, so he told the truth.

”I recovered it completely.”

Lucio's mouth twitched.

'Isn't this Myriad Wisps Technique too heaven-defying? Even the Sect's top cultivation technique for Core Formation Realm can at most achieve 70% of Krune's speed.'

Lucio then pondered a bit.

'But I guess it makes sense, wisps have too little of a life span, maybe this is the compensation for their lack of time. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the time necessary to enter the next Realm.'

Lucio was right! After all, one can see it when they think about Shinja, who can only convert around 30% of the Spiritual Energy straight away. Of course, this is already very good!

Lucio then showed a serious expression and said.

”Alright, you can start at any time!”

Krune didn't waste time and immediately activated his Tribulation Lightning movement at 50%. But as soon as he moved, he stopped. That is because he noticed one thing.

'Wait! I'm not feeling at my limit when I use my Tribulation Lightning Movement at 50% output. Could it be that I can go further now?'

Krune then tried to increase the power of the Tribulation Lightning.

60%... he could still hold it.

65%... still okay.

70%... nothing.

75%... he finally noticed that his wisp body was reaching the limit, but he could still go a little further.

80%! Only at this amount of Tribulation Lightning power release did Krune finally feel like he would get hurt if he increased the output.

'80% of Tribulation Lightning power output. This is great! I reckon that I should be able to achieve 50% to 60% in my human form now too.'

Krune was ecstatic and immediately attacked his Master with everything he got. Now that he can release 80% of Tribulation Lightning power, his other skills that could be fused with it also increase in strength!

Lucio received all of Krune's attacks with a bored face. But in fact, he was really surprised by him.

'This speed and attack power, he can totally fight ordinary late stages Core Formation Realm cultivators and demon beasts. If I consider the average combat prowess of the members of my Divine Path Sect, he should be able to challenge those on the 4th or maybe even the 5th stage of the same Realm. If we consider the Major Core owners, he should be able to win against a 2nd stage and even fight equally against those on the 3rd!'

One must remember that we are at the Divine Path Sect, each and every member is or was a genius on their own right. So it goes without saying that the realms that Krune could jump to fight were a lot lower than ordinary ones. Still, what Krune is doing is already a miracle in and out itself.

'As for the ordinary cultivators and demon beasts, the 7th stage shouldn't be an issue, only the 8th stage should be able to put a challenge to him. Still, he wouldn't lose that easy. Even if it is an enemy at the 9th stage, with his Tribulation Lightning Movement, he should be able to run away without a problem.'

While Krune was fighting, he was also checking the things that were happening inside his Elemental Core.

'According to what Master Said, Core Formation Realm should be able to use the power of the Core now. So far, it has been exactly like that. I can also see the difference between the Elemental Source Energy that I used before and the one that passed through my Elemental Core. The Elemental Source Energy that has been refined by the Elemental Core is several times easier to manipulate and fuse with my attacks. It gives me the feeling that it is, in fact, a part of me now. So this is the power of the Core that everyone talks about.'

Krune did really think that everything was going okay and that nothing strange happened. However, in Lucio, Ojilian, and Falanea's eyes, it was totally different!

While Lucio was fending off Krune's attacks, he was also talking with Falanea and Ojilian through Divine Sense.

”Impressive, isn't it? His control of the Elemental Source Energy is definitely much better than my own when I was at his Realm.”

Ojilian nodded.

”You said that his future Divine Soul took the shape of an egg, right? As we know, it is because of the Soul inside the Core that we can use the Core's Power. But it seems like his Soul can manipulate the power of the Core much better than any of us when we were young.”

Falanea also commented.

”And while all of this is happening, the Destiny Energy around him is still as calm as a lake, not even a ripple can be found. If I want to divine anything, I have to use the collateral damage that his attacks do to the environment. But it will never be as good as divining the cultivators or demon beasts themselves. Such an envious ability!”

Lucio then laughed.

”I'm looking forward to seeing just what kind of Divine Soul will come out of that rainbow egg.”

Ojilian and Falanea nodded. They, too, are very curious about what changes would be there.
