376 Bottomless Pi (2/2)
”It is all that idiot snake's fault!”
Feifei heard that and laughed.
”Well, you are still quite good. Don't Demon Crows usually only take around three months to lay their eggs? After that, you just need to take care of it. Look at me, considering its growth rate, I think that I might stay pregnant for more than 9 months. Don't forget that I will need to carry my own during this entire time.”
Tiane couldn't help but ask.
”Wisps are originally energy beings. Doesn't your baby absorb a lot of Spiritual Energy because of that? I can tell that my one is quite hungry in this sense.”
Feifei sighed and then looked around with her Divine Sense. She noticed that neither Krune or Ruik were around, so she decided to talk the truth.
”Don't tell it to Krune or Ruik so that they don't get needlessly preoccupied. But you are right, Krune's baby is a bottomless pit! This little guy or girl is sucking so much spiritual energy that I can barely keep up with it. Fortunately, there is no pain or anything like that, it is just that my own cultivation speed was reduced to a snail's pace. Anyway, if I happen to need more Spiritual Energy, I have more than enough Spirit Stones for that.”
Tiane was taken aback.
”That much?! You are already in the Divine Soul Realm 8th Stage. Not to mention that you have the Elemental Meridians, how come you can only barely keep up with it?”
Feifei laughed and said.
”Human babies don't even use Spiritual Energy to start with, so how do you expect me to know? This is totally new for me.”
Tiane immediately nodded.
”That is the same for Demon Crows. Our eggs don't use Spiritual Energy either. I asked Ruik a few days ago, and he said that his Snake Race, or at least, his Double-Headed Snake Specie's eggs, also don't use Spiritual Energy.”
Tiane and Feifei looked at each other and seemed to have reached the same conclusion.
Tiane was the first one to ask.
”Could it be the Elemental Meridians?”
Feifei immediately nodded.
”I thought so too. That would also explain why my own is absorbing a lot more Spiritual Energy as well. After all, we know that Krune's Elemental Meridians are at a different level than ours. So his baby might have inherited its special traits. Besides, Krune is a being of energy to start with, so the Elemental Meridians only made things worse.”
Tiane and Feifei then laughed at each other.
”It seems like some pretty amazing babies are going to be born.”
Feifei then remembered why she had come here for.
”Oh, right! Let me tell you what Krune and I discussed with Cinty.”
She explained everything about the Cultivation Monitoring Mark and the Alliance Seal, then she went to the fact that Krune decided to use Olave's favor to avoid it. After hearing all of that, Tiane couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
”Just how much do we own him already?”
Feifei shrugged her shoulder and replied.
”It doesn't matter, he is happy the way things are, and so am I. If there is an opportunity, just make sure to give your all to pay him.”
Feifei then got up and stretched a little.
”Well, I'm going back to practice my formations. I intend to enter the Golden Stars Level in at most two weeks.”
Tiane then asked, concerned.
”Are you fine to do that in your state?”
Feifei nodded.
”Although this bottomless pit won't let me cultivate, it is not bothering me with anything else either. Besides, you know as well as me that Formations are highly more reliant on Spirit Stones instead of the Formations Master Spiritual Energy. So it won't bother me much. Also, being pregnant doesn't affect my Laws comprehension, so I can practice my Formations without any risks.”
Tiane sighed in relief.
”Then, that is okay. But if you feel like you are putting too much effort, you must definitely stop.”
Feifei laughed after hearing that.
”Who is the older sister here, me or you? Don't forget that I'm 4 years older than you.”
Suddenly, the room's door opened, and Ruik came in.
”Oh, it's Feifei! How was your talk with Cinty?”
Feifei pointed at Tiane.
”Ask her, I need to go back to my training. See you later!”
Feifei left the room and went to the training field she was using to practice formations.
