178 Breakthroughs (1/2)

A day later, Krune and everyone else were still cultivating when suddenly, a young man approached the pool while flying and entered it. If not for the fact that Lofa and Krune were quite familiar with his aura, they would definitely not recognize him.

”Tasier!”

Tasier looked at them and smiled.

”Yo!”

Lofa couldn't help but think.

'He turned out to be quite handsome now that he got his human form.'

Of course, she wouldn't be able to say that out loud. Tasier noticed Krune and Lofa looked at him as if he was some oddity and felt a little embarrassed.

”What are you looking at? I told you before, didn't I? I would need to reach the Core Formation Realm to be able to turn into my human form. Is there a need to stare at me for so long just because of that?”

Krune then laughed.

”It's just that I had long since got used to your Hawk form. Now that you became like this, I can't help but admire the difference.”

Lofa immediately nodded vigorously!

Tasier then turned around and said.

”Whatever! Go back to cultivate. I will also use the rest of the time to stabilize my cultivation and foundation here. We can't lose time with idle chat like that.”

Tasier then tried to walk away when suddenly, he tripped!

Krune looked at that and laughed out loud. Although Tasier had both his feet in his Hawk Form, it doesn't change the fact that the difference in shape and weight is enormous! Simply put, he still couldn't move his human body as he wished.

Krune and Lofa laughed at that, especially Krune since he had passed through the same situation before.

”Don't worry, we shall make sure that the others know about it in the future too.”

Tasier felt like crying again. Can't they just forget that it happened?

Krune and Lofa laughed a little more and then went back to cultivate as well.

During the 10 days of the Spiritual Pool opening, three participants had broken through a stage. Today, they once more felt that someone was doing the same, and this time, it was really Krune! With his Elemental Meridians plus the fact that he didn't need to be afraid of damaging his foundation, it was just a question of time before he did that.

Of course, anywhere else and Krune would have to spend months to achieve that. First, their amount of spiritual energy that he can get from his spirit stones isn't even close to the Spiritual Pool. Second, he would need to care for his foundation all the while, which would take even more time.

'This thing really came in hand. It has been just around 2 months since I entered the Core Formation Stage, but I'm already at the 2nd stage. Anyway, I still have another twenty days, so I have to use this time to enter the 3rd stage or at least get close to it.'

There was another thing that made Krune happy, as well.

Now that Krune had finally moved up a stage, a question appeared on his mind.

'Now that I think about it, what cultivation level is Feifei at?'

He did not check it before since he didn't care, but now that Krune broke through, he couldn't help but wonder. Krune then checked it with his Divine Sense, but in the end, all he could tell is that Feifei is in the Core Formation Stage too.

'For me to not being able to check what stage Feifei is with my soul power, she is definitely in the late stages, and I reckon that at least in the 8th one as well. I will ask her after the pool time is over. For now, it is better to not disturb her concentration.

Time passed, and the second week was over. Today, Lofa was finally able to reinforce her foundation and accumulate enough energy for a breakthrough. She then looked at Krune and Tasier and said.

”It's my time, so I'm going ahead.”

They nodded to her and wished Lofa good luck. Lofa then took a final look at Feifei and left for the breakthrough.
