269 I Hope Im Not Wrong (1/2)

Light Spirit then immediately warned.

”In that case, the thing that we talked about is probably happening. Once the Great Universes' powers find out that Wisps are all cultivating extremely fast and a lot of Divine Path Realm ones are about to appear, they will have to intervene. By intervening, I mean a full-scale wisp hunt!”

Krune nodded.

”I know, but we are at a point of no return now. If I don't do that, then the Luvile Universe might really get destroyed! At least at the moment, I don't have any better idea.”

Light Spirit pondered a bit and said.

”Instead of starting spreading it now, you should hold yourself back for the time being.”

Krune then asked why.

”Simple. It will take a very long time before anyone really notices that the wisps have a good chance of entering the Divine Path Realm in your home Universe. Think with me, aren't you, someone with the Myriad Energies Technique, still in the 7th of the Core Formation Realm? Not to mention that the Myriad Wisps Technique is slightly worse than the Myriad Energies ones.”

Krune understood what Light Spirit meant.

”I see, that means I still have quite a few years ahead. Even if the Great Powers find out about the Myriad Wisps Technique, they will not act straight away since there is no proof that this technique can give the wisps a chance to reach the Divine Path Realm. They will need to wait to see how this is going to play out.”

Light Spirit agreed with him.

”Correct! You are, without a doubt, the wisp with the fastest cultivation speed. After seeing Lakin, Dier, Cassy, and the other wisps, it should be very obvious to you that they are not a match for your talent. Especially considering your Advanced Major Core. So it will be better if you first reach a higher realm before following ahead with your plan.”

Krune pondered a bit and then said.

”I understand. I will not spread it now. Still, I should at least select a few wisps to pass the Myriad Wisps Technique. In case something happens to me, there will be someone else to pass it forward. Just Feifei, Ruik, and Tiane aren't enough. Not to mention that their technique is the Myriad Energies, not the Myriad Wisps.”

Krune was about to continued talking when he heard someone calling him.

Cinty saw that Krune was standing still for quite some time and then asked.

”Are you alright?”

Krune came back to himself and then nodded.

”Yes, I was just thinking about Wally for a bit.”

Cinty nodded and then sealed Wally's light once more.

”Alright, let's return to my room.”

Krune's group then followed Cinty back. On the way, she started to talk.

Tiane was also hearing everything and then asked.

”In the end, why does the Wisp King or Queen have to have Major Cores?”

Indeed, that was the main question in everyone's minds.

Cinty sighed and then said.

”That's because only a wisp with a Major Core would have the chance of reaching the Divine Path Realm. I can tell you that, at the very least, we have no records of a wisp without a Major Core achieving this realm before.”

Ruik then asked something else.

”So, what will happen if a wisp enters the Divine Path Realm?”

Cinty shook her head and answered.

”As far as I know, it is for the sake of having a Wisp King who can take care of the wisp in Wally's place. Of course, this is just speculation. I think that once a wisp who can achieve immortality appears, Wally might decide to go back to the Higher Realms.”

Krune found it weird.

”Wouldn't that leave the wisps here unprotected?”

Cinty shrugged her shoulders.

”As I said, this is just speculation. I have never talked with Wally, so I could not ask it myself. As far as I know, he might as well have left already, and no one knows about it.”

Krune wanted to say that it's definitely not the case, but it would be too weird. Cinty would definitely ask how he does know about that.

After arriving back in Cinty's cultivation room, she looked back at Krune and asked.

”So, will you accept being the next Wisp King? Of course, you won't become one now. I still have more than 20 years ahead to live, not to mention that your cultivation is still not in the Divine Path Realm. So you will be free of the burden for the time being.”

Krune had a lot more doubts about this Wisp King role. Still, becoming one definitely wasn't something someone like him wanted. It was at this moment that he thought about something else.

”What happens if the throne stays empty?”

”Nothing much, the management of the wisp race is then made by the Wisps in the Divine Soul Realm. The main issue is that even the Divine Soul Realm ones can only live around 80 years at most. There are also those at the Soul Forging Realm, but they will not intervene in the wisp worlds' management unless necessary. You can think about them as the wisps' protectors. They will just make sure that no one tries to seize control for their own benefit.”

Dilo couldn't help but ask.

”Does it happen often?”
