350 Waking up (1/2)

Ricarte and his group moved for a while until they found a safe place. There, they put Feifei and Joiu down.

Feifei was holding Krune's wisp core until now. She then released it carefully and took a few Healing Pills that Krune had concocted. She gave some to Joiu as well and warned him.

”Take out a few Spirit Stones, these pills are quite hungry when it comes to Spiritual Energy. Still, they will help our bodies recover the fastest.”

Joiu had never heard about a healing pill like that, but he did, as Feifei said. After that, both of them ate their pills and started to recover. Sure enough, the special property of Krune's Purple Flame Pills appeared right after. The Pill Effect forced Feifei and Joiu to absorb Spiritual Energy as fast as possible too.

Ricarte was looking at them with his Divine Sense and felt surprised at that scene. Both Feifei and Joiu's Injuries started to recover much faster than he could expect. One must remember that the higher the cultivation, the longer the body takes to recover from injuries. There is also the fact that both of them had been affected by Uer's Death Domain energy for some time.

'Are those Diamond Stars Pills? Only something like that could reach this speed of recovery... Still, I think I've heard something about pills with a purple flame before.'

While Feifei and Joiu were recovering, Krune's soul had been in a sleeping state. Heavin also couldn't wake up since when Krune was struck unconscious, he was still fully connected to his Divine Soul. Krune has to weaken their connection by himself, or Heavin won't wake up either.

Light Spirit looked at Krune's soul, which was only half the original size, and sighed.

'His soul is very weak at the moment, no wonder he lost his consciousness after that strike. Before waking up, he will need to heal a bit.'

Light Spirit started to ponder how to do that. After all, Krune isn't in his human form, so there is no mouth for him to swallow anything.

'Well, I guess I can only wait. Considering how much Krune tempered his soul with my Tribulation Lightning in the past, his soul should at least stabilize in a few hours. Also, once that Life Divine Soul guy recovers, I can use him a little.'

Light Spirit was right. Krune had injured his soul hundreds, if not thousands of times, while he tempered it with Tribulation Lightning. So Krune's soul natural recovery definitely far surpassed the majority.

Thanks to Krune's pills, Joiu and Feifei recovered very fast. At some point, Joiu got well enough to control Light Element again, which sped up the process even more.

Around two hours later, Joiu finally let out a sigh of relief and got up. He looked at Feifei, who was holding Krune's Wisp Core and then asked the question on everyone else's mind.

”So... Who are you two? I can tell now that you are Heavenly Fragment owners, but from which Universe exactly?”

”We are indeed Heavenly Fragment Owners, that is true. But I can't tell exactly from where we came. Let's just say that I'm not from one of the Universes controlling Dalin.”

Joiu nodded.

”I see, you are one of those who paid to enter Dalin temporarily. But I didn't expect that your Universe would send their Heavenly Fragment Owners away. Usually, a Heavenly Core, or Divine Soul, is something extremely important for a Universe. The powers behind each Heavenly Fragment owner wouldn't let them leave their sight if they didn't have another choice.”

Feifei smiled bitterly.

”You are right, it was because there was no other choice that we came to the Dalin Universe.”

Joiu and Ricarte nodded. They already expected as much.

”Well, what about that guy who took control of this wisp? Don't tell me that it was really Darten because no one would be idiot enough to believe that. But one thing is weird. Mohie Zarks had blocked the use of anything that surpasses the level of a 5th Stage Soul Forging Realm. So how could he show that power?”

Ricarte nodded.

”I heard that too. I even tried to use one of my protection treasures, which can unleash the power of a Divine Path Realm attack. Still, it didn't matter what I did, I couldn't activate it. So how come Darten was able to do so? Well, Darten most likely isn't his real name anyway.”

Feifei shook her head.

”I don't know much about it either. You will need to wait for him to wake up to ask. However, I doubt he will answer your questions. After all, he didn't answer even when I asked it myself.”

Suddenly, everyone in the room heard a voice.

”Hey, Joiu Brat.”

Joiu almost jumped in fright. But he immediately remembered that voice. It was the same one who saved him and Feifei from Uer's group. Obviously, it was Light Spirit.

”Y-Yes?”

Light Spirit then said.

”It seems that you have recovered already. Since you can already control the Light Element again, gather some Life Energy and send it into the Wisp Core, I will take care of the rest.”

Joiu didn't dare to delay and immediately did as he was told.

Light Spirit then used that energy to help stabilize and heal Krune's Soul. Of course, it would be impossible to make a full recovery with just this much, but that wasn't why he was doing it.

Around one hour later, Light Spirit noticed that Krune's Soul was good to go. He then gathered some tribulation lightning and struck it.

Zap!

”Wake Up!”

”Arrrgh!”
