Is that a Wisp?

Unfortunately, Fie's desire didn't come to bear fruits. Well, her very own existence is kind of a miracle already considering the chances. For that to happen again... well... Feifei and Krune will need to have a lot more 'action.'

Relived from his 'marital duties' a few 'days!' later, Krune finally had the chance to begin practicing his Blacksmith Skills. But that was good since, on the next day, Krune and Cinty became the only ones available in the Wisp Main world.

That was to be expected. After all, everyone else had already achieved at least the Void Breaking Realm. That being said, they all could open their Chaos Meridians now.

Ruik was in the 8th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm. There was nothing wrong with being so much lower than Krune and Feifei. After all, those two have Heavenly Fragments, which gave them a cultivation boost.

Ruik's Dream Laws progressed by leaps and bounds, though. Unless he finds a freak like Krune, Ruik will find it hard to find a match at the same level. Of course, we are not including here Heavenly Fragment owners and much less Heavenly Divine Soul ones. One must remember that Ruik doesn't have a Major Divine Soul or any kind of special constitution either.

Ruik Dream World Construction was already at culmination when he entered the Holy Land. Now he achieved completion with Nightmare World Construction and Reality. His Illusion Sub-law was also in the Advanced Stage now. Unfortunately, the last Sub-Law of the Dream Laws, Illusion and Reality, can only be comprehended after Reality and Illusion reach culmination separately. As mentioned before, the last Sub-Law is a mix of the previous two, that's why 'Illusion and Reality.'

Ruik could totally fight an ordinary 1st or 2nd Stage Divine Path Realm cultivator or demon beast and still have the advantage. If they were taken with their guards down, the battle might be over in a second the moment they are dragged into the Dream World.

Tiane was still a Stage behind Ruik, being in the 7th one. Her Laws were Wind and Lightning. As two of the Five Main Elemental Laws, Tiane had it a lot easier than Ruik, Krune, Feifei, or Cinty.

For Wind Sub-Laws, Wind Essence, Breeze, and Gale reached a culmination. The fourth one, Gust, was at the Intermediate level. As for Lightning Laws, Current and Lightning Form were at completion while Lightning Essence was on at the Advanced Stage. Nothing was surprising about it since she is a Flying Type Demon beast.

Dilo had the highest cultivation between those at the Void Breaking Realm, being now in the 9th Stage. But different from the majority, he only focused on a single one, his Wind Laws. Still, thanks to that, the only Wind Sub-Law remaining for him was Drifting. Wind Essence, Breeze, Gale, and Gust were already at culmination. As for Drifting, it was in the Intermediate Stage. No doubt that Dilo will finish the Drifting Sub-Law after entering the Divine Path Realm. After that, there will be the last part, fusing them all into the Major Law of Wind.

Xankruan was at the same level as Tiane, the 7th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm. She also did the same as Dilo. She only focused on one single Elemental Law, Earth. Earth Essence, Earthquake, and Gravity reached culmination, while Vitality and Strength were at the Advanced and Initial Stage, respectively.

Fie and Liriu were a lot faster than those mentioned above in cultivation.

Fie had support from Little Arty during all these years in the Holy Land, while Liriu is a Dracophoenix. That being said, it would be weird if their cultivation was slow than Ruik and the others at their level.

In Fie's case, she had already cultivated to the 6th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm, right behind Tiane. After so long in the Holy Land, the gap in cultivation due to their ages had disappeared, just like that.

After Fie separated from Feifei and Little Arty, she also began to comprehend Water Laws, just like her mother. So now, she is proficient with both Lightning and Water Laws.

Of course, Laws were different from cultivation, so the gap in age couldn't be breached that easy. Neither her Lightning nor Water laws were ahead of Tiane's Wind Laws. For Lighting, Fie had two at culmination only, Lightning Essence and Flash. As for Water laws, there was only one, Water Essence. Little Art already told her that once she finishes opening her Chaos Meridians, she should forget about cultivation and focus on her laws and foundation expansion. Because of that, Fie is bound to stay locked in the 7th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm for a long time.

As for Liriu, he had an advantage in it. His Dracophoenix Bloodline! Thanks to that, not even Krune could beat his speed in Fire Laws Comprehension. Let alone that he also has created his own Tribulation Fire Source. Just like Dilo, Liriu is a single Sub-Law away from comprehending the entire Fire Sub-Laws. After that, he will only need to merge them all into the Major Law of Fire. Most likely, he will do that before Dilo.

As for his cultivation, he already caught up to Fie and is now in the same 6th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm.

There is a Halo for each Chaos Meridian in the Elemental Path. That being said, nine triers could open them at once. Surprisingly, there was one extra person this time around, Cinty's husband, Kiirion. Before leaving the Wisp Main World, he was also left with the Myriad Energies Technique to practice. Cinty trusts him deeply, so Krune had no calms in passing it to him.

Back then, there weren't enough slots so that he could come with them to the Holy Land. Because of that, he volunteered to stay behind and act in Cinty's absence. Of course, he wouldn't work as if he was the new Wisp King or anything like that. He would only give the wisps, who were really left in charge of everything, some help if needed. But because that, he hasn't left the Wisp World at all in the last ten years. However, this was more than enough time for him to get all nine Elemental Meridians.

Cinty heard from the wisps who knew the truth that Kiirion really gave them tremendous help. Primarily because other than Krune and Cinty, there wasn't anyone else in the Void Breaking Realm or above in the wisps' midst. To compensate for it, Krune had contacted Wally's disciple and requested a favor to let them bring Kiirion into the Elemental path to open his Chaos Meridians too.

Wally's disciples didn't have much of a reason to refuse to start with, so Kiirion ended being brought too. Of course, he only came several days later. That's because both he and Cinty had also been out of 'action' for a long time, so they spent their sweet time together to make up for it. It was the same for Krune and Feifei or Dilo and Xankruan.

Both Krune and Cinty took more than a year to open all the Chaos Meridians, so they believe that Feifei's entourage will take more or less the same time to return.

"Well then, now that I have sent everyone out, I can finally focus on my Blacksmithing again."

Krune looked through the list of requests and immediately took out the highest level ones. The Blacksmith Guild believed that Krune was around the Four Diamond Stars level, which wasn't far off. That being said, their hardest requests quite matched up with Krune's level.

Krune was now in the Five Stars, so even he wasn't sure if he would become a Stars Path one before the Heavenly Competition. Just entering the Stars Path wasn't enough, he had to at least be able to refine those Diamon Golem materials.

Time passed, and three weeks went by. Today, a Spatial Gate connecting the Galec and Luvile Universe opened. Galec Universe was the one that the All Life Sect Sacred Land used to send Wamie over. When the higher-ups of the All Life Sect received a message from Wamie, they all felt excited. They had prepared a slot for her and Gilia to enter the Holy Land, so it meant that at least Wamie came back alive from there.

However, when Wamie passed through the gate, they noticed that Gilia wasn't with her. Immediately, they remembered about her Soul Fire that extinguished some time ago. As mentioned before, all important members of the sacred lands leave their Soul Fire behind so that the sect will know straight away if something happened to them.

One didn't need to be a genius to guess what happened. However, the All Life Sect Master, Tika Tarkulie, had to ask.

"Did Gilia die?"

Wamie nodded her head.

"Yes, she died in the Holy Land."

Tika sighed.

"So, it was true. We found out when Gilia's Soul Fire extinguished. However, we can discuss it later."

Tika then returned her attention to Wamie.

"I can see that you reached the 2nd Stage of the Divine Path Realm. This is far beyond my expectations for you. Could it be that you were successful in acquiring all the Heavenly Fragments?"

All the elders around immediately looked at Wamie. That was by far the most critical question.

However, Wamie shook her head.

"No. Let alone get all fragments, I'm lucky that I didn't lose mine. Krune is way too strong. I'm not his match at all."

"Krune?! You mean, the Divine Path Sect's Sect Master's Disciple? So he really entered the Dalin Universe?"

Wamie nodded.

"Yes. But things turned different than elders might be thinking. Let me explain."
