Is that a Wisp?

489 First Meeting

Krune wasn't the only one shocked, Little Arty was even more so. He had been watching Krune for Fie, so he noticed when Krune went through the test. That was the first time he saw someone doing more than 90% in the Godly Energy Control test too. But that was it, Little Arty also thought that Krune had simply passed the test.

"What?! Floor Number Zero? What Floor Number Zero? Since when the Holy Land has a Floor Number Zero?!"

Little Arty spread his search everywhere, but he simply couldn't find Krune at all!

"Master... Just what were you thinking? Also..."

Little Arty then looked at Fie, who didn't know anything.

"How will I explain it to her?"

---

On the so-called Floor Number Zero, Krune's body finally appeared. As soon as that happened, he had Heavin spread his Mental Energy to check everything. However, the entire place was pitch black. It was the opposite of what the Origin Dimensional Realm looked like when Fie was teleported there.

Through his Mental Energy, Heavin couldn't find anything except for a small hut that looked very like the one Fie was staying at. Heavin and Krune looked at each other and then moved in the Hut's direction.

"Just why did it happen? I was so close to the 10th..."

Light Spirit rebuked him, though.

"Stop complaining, you can only do one thing anyway, go there and check it."

Krune sighed and kept walking, but it was then that he heard a voice coming from inside.

"Oh! So you finally arrived."

The door on the Hut slowly opened, revealing the image of a man walking out. Surprisingly Krune knew this man.

"Turin!"

Turin was the Demon Beast that sold Krune the Mohie Zarks Inheritance Jade Slip. At that time, another group tried to buy the Jade Slip from him, but Krune intervened since that Jade Slip had the same symbol as the Mohie Sect in the Luvile Universe. In the end, Ruik fought the leader of the opposite group and won. Krune then went to the City's Teleport Formation to talk with that Demon Beast, and it was there that he heard this guy's name.

"No, wait... Your hair..."

Although the face was the same, Turin now had a Rainbow-Colored Hair, just like Krune.

Turin couldn't help but laugh, though.

"Well, I guess that is the fate of all Wisps with an Elemental Heavenly Fragment. Did you know? The hair in the human form of a Wisp with a regular Elemental Divine Soul doesn't change. Only a Wisp with an Elemental Heavenly Fragment in their Elemental Divine Soul will see this change in their hairs."

Krune was surprised to hear that, but it also reminded him of Eldrin, one of Wally's nine Wisp Disciples. Eldrin had a regular Elemental Divine Soul, but the hair in his Human Form wasn't rainbow-colored like his.

"Heavenly Fragment? Cinty told me that there had only been a single Wisp before with an Elemental Heavenly Fragment, could it be that you are..."

Suddenly, Krune heard another voice from inside the Small Hut.

"Hey, Wally. How long will you keep the guest waiting? Quickly call him inside."

Krune was shocked!

"So you are Wally!"

Turin, or better, Wally, just laughed out loud.

"Let's go in first; we have a lot to talk."

Inside the Hut, Krune found a cultivator who seemed to be around his thirties. He had long hair and no beard. However, Krune could tell one thing. That is not the real him, but just some kind of projection of the real person.

"This senior is?"

The man nodded at Krune before introducing himself.

"My name is Sentoi Havan, the one who built this Holy Land. Nice to meet you, Krune."

Krune didn't waste his chance and immediately asked.

"Then can you tell me how my daughter is doing?"

Wally and Sentoi were taken aback. So his very first question had nothing to do with the situation he is in, but his family. That made their impression of Krune improve a lot.

"Don't worry, she is doing well. Once you reach the 10th Floor, you will meet her again."

Krune was ecstatic to hear that. As long as Fie is okay, he is fine with it. As for what happened to her during the last two years, Krune can ask about it later.

"Then what about Liriu? He is also a kid from my friends. Is he fine at the moment?"

Sentoi nodded once more.

"He is, but he will not arrive at the 10th anytime soon. I believe he is staying behind on purpose to cultivate. Still, that is a good thing. With his cultivation, going up too fast would only bring his death."

Sentoi also added.

"Oh, right! Before you ask, I can only check their conditions, I can't do anything else other than that."

Krune didn't mind. He only asked about Fie and Liriu because they were the only kids in his group. All the rest of his group members entered the Holy Land knowing about its dangers, so none of them could complain about it.

Heavin then flew from his shoulder and landed on the table in front.

"Hum... I always thought that Wally was some kind of god or something, but he looks pretty normal. Well... as far as Rainbow-Colored hair can be considered normal, that is."

Wally then laughed out loud before looking at him.

"I see, so you are a Divine Soul, uh? Now, that is quite a rare thing. Even in the Higher Realms, an existence like yours is extremely rare."

Wally then looked at Krune, or to be more specific, at Krune's Wisp Core direction.

"And that friend over there, won't you come out?"

"Hmph!"

Suddenly, Purple Tribulation Lightning came out of Krune's body and took the form of a man of Lightning. He also had the same appearance as Luvile's body back in the Luvile Universe.

"So it was you who kept me from talking too much, right?"

Wally nodded.

"Don't take that personally. It's just that there wouldn't be anything good telling Krune unnecessary things."

Wally then bowed at Luvile.

"This might be the first time I talk to you, but I've heard a lot during the time I was in the Higher Realms. It's my honor to meet the Purple Lightning God."

Krune didn't look surprised to hear that. He always thought that Luvile was someone really powerful during the time he was alive.

Luvile then looked at Wally and shrugged his Shoulders.

"Well, before escaping that cage and coming to the Dalin universe, I had no idea who you were. However, I knew that you had always kept an eye on us. This feeling of being observed at every second was quite annoying. Anyway, was it you who selected Krune to be my host?"

Krune was taken aback by that. Didn't Light Spirit say that he was chosen at random in the past? How come it was Wally's choice?

Sentoi beside Wally immediately burst in laugher.

"So, you were not as secretive as you thought to be, right, Wally?"

Wally scratched the back of his head as if an embarrassing truth was found out.

"Cough, cough. I thought I had been careful enough, but I guess I can't trick the Purple Lightning God that easily."

Luvile nodded.

"Your arrangements were excellent. I really thought that me falling into Krune's Wisp Core was just a coincidence. But as time passed, and more truths about Krune and the wisp race were revealed, I started to question myself. That day when I escaped from the cage in the luvile Universe. Was it really through my own efforts? Considering all the possible choices, how could I fall inside such a heaven-defying wisp? The more I thought about it, the more I believed that it wasn't just coincidence."

Sentoi Havan agreed with Luvile.

"You were right, it wasn't just a coincidence. Wally here wanted to give the little Wisp who finally figured his Myriad Energies Technique some protection. Although the fact that he was born in the Luvile Universe was a coincidence, it also played in your favor. Otherwise, I believe you would still be stuck inside that place."

Luvile didn't feel angry. Whether he was involved in something he didn't know or not, it didn't matter. The fact is that thanks to Wally and probably this Sentoi guy, he finally got a chance to get free. So, in the end, he was quite grateful to them. Of course, he wouldn't admit such a thing that easily.

"Anyway. What is happening here? Could it be that you were in cahoots with that brat called Laka? Otherwise, how come Krune would end up inside this Holy Land?"

Wally was the one to answer this question.

"That is incorrect. I had plans to bring Krune into the Holy Land, but it did not involve Laka. In fact, my initial idea was to have him coming alone, not with his entire group. But fate is such a weird thing, who could have thought that that brat called Laka would appear? If you think about the chain of events that led to it, you have to admit that it would be too much to control."

Krune pondered a bit and had to admit that Wally was correct. Liriu first became a Dracophoenix, then Laex released the information about him. Only then did Laka find out about this and contacted Laex. Not to mention that Laex and Laka were friends from way before Laex met Krune. When you put everything together, that is indeed too much for someone to control.

There were hundreds of other ways to bring Krune inside the Holy Land without relying on such a random chain of events. Besides, Wally is pretty sure that even he couldn't predict that Liriu would become a Dracophoenix, which was the main reason for Laka's arrival.
