Is That A Wisp? Chapter 279

Krune stopped for a minute and tried to cultivate again. Finally, his Elemental Meridians had absorbed enough for him to tell the difference.
"As it seems, the conversion of Elemental Source Energy increased. But it was really a tiny, tiny bit. If I didn't pay attention, I wouldn't notice it at all."
Everyone was taken aback by that.
"Those lights increase your conversion of Elemental Source Energy? How is that possible?!"
Krune shook his head and said.
"I don't know. As I mentioned before, this is just my first time coming to this place. I also don't know why Feier and my cultivation techniques can absorb those lights at all."
Marshine and the others couldn't help but feel a little jealous of this ability. Still, it is, as Rarol said. They can't absorb them like Jolk and Feier, so whether Feier and Jolk can do it or not doesn't change the fact that Marshine and the rest wouldn't be able to do that to start with.
Tinnian sighed and then said.
"Whatever. We are here for the Elemental Flowers. As long as Feier and Jolk keep doing their part, I don't care if they absorb the lights or not. Let's not waste our time here and keep going."
Their group agreed, and they immediately moved out. As for the rest of the lights, they had already disappeared underground.
While they were moving, Feifei was talking to Krune through Divine Sense message.
"Was it okay to tell that to them?"
Krune answered.
"After that display, it would be even worse to say that nothing changed at all. Besides, we already know that except for Marshine, the changes of the others making a move on us is very low. Not to mention that if the two of us attack together, we are probably stronger than their combined effort."
Feifei nodded and then changed the topic.
"Alright. So, what about those lights? I also can absorb them, which means this is something anyone with the Myriad Energies Technique can do. Did you feel anything wrong after getting your meridians to take them in?"
Krune denied.
"No, there was nothing wrong at all. We should take this chance to take as much of those Specs of Light as possible. But pay attention to your meridians every time we finish getting some of them. If something goes wrong, we will give up absorbing them straight away."
Feifei agreed with Krune and then asked.
"I wonder if there is a way to get those lights outside this Elemental Path. Otherwise, we will only be able to come back here a hundred years later. Not to mention that we can't enter the Soul Forging Realm during this time."

Krune pondered a bit and then said.
"I don't know if there is any other place outside like this, but I would say that the chances are high. There are too many Dimensional Realms and different types of secret areas in this Universe. Once we leave, we just need to do research for something that meets this realm conditions. For example, some realm where the demon beasts are also made of energy and disappear after being defeated."
Feifei found it weird.
"If that is the only requisite, then anything would be good. But the majority of those places the beasts would be made of Spiritual Energy. It is evident that the demon beasts here are not made of Spiritual Energy alone. Otherwise, even after absorbing those lights, the only thing that would happen is that we got more energy to cultivate."
Krune couldn't help but agree with Feifei's statement.
"Anyway, we can't do look into it in this place, so let's wait for the 18 days to be over and take a look after. Also, there is the fact that my Meridians are still asking me to move forward. Who knows? Maybe we will find a way to reproduce this phenomenon outside."
Feifei nodded, and they joined the group again.
Krune's group kept their plan. As expected, Krune's Divine Sense and Rarol's instincts made them find a batch of flowers after another. It looked like the Elemental Flowers were never alone either. There were always at least 5 of them together. Unfortunately, some of those batches had just too many Divine Soul Realm beasts protecting it. Others had an excessively high cultivation level Demon Beast like the 6th Stage or above.
Krune's group wasn't sad, though. If this is already like this for them, then let's not even mention the other groups. Of course, they know that there are groups with Late Stages Divine Soul Realm members, but there is nothing they can do about that.
Krune's group kept the pace, only stopping to grab flowers that they could deal with fast. If it showed to be too troublesome, they immediately ignored it and moved to the next.
Marshine and the others had already got used to Jolk and Feier absorbing the lights right after the flowers were plucked. There was no point in getting sad because they couldn't do the same. But the main reason for it was that Filio talked with them.
"Just forget about it. Even if we got Feier and Jolk's cultivation technique, then so what? This realm will close in a few days. Do you have any confidence in changing your cultivation technique to another in the remaining time? Since when it is this easy to change cultivation techniques? Even if for some miracle you are able to, how many days will you have to absorb the lights?"

Marshine and the other couldn't help but nod. Still, Filio continued.
"That's not all, the next time that this realm will be open is a hundred years later. Is there someone here who thinks that they won't be in the Soul Forging Realm by then? Since that's the case, what's the point if you can't enter this place anymore? Not to mention that having them in the group is an excellent thing. Without them, I believe you all know that we wouldn't have even half of the Elemental Flowers that we have now."
With those last words, Marshine and everyone else finally decided to forget about Feier and Jolk's action. Well, in fact, the one who was really bothered with it was Marshine. Tinnian, Filio, and especially Rarol didn't mind it much to start with.
Just like that, another two days passed. Suddenly, Rarol felt something again and smiled.
"This way!"
By now, Krune and everyone else already got used to Rarol's sudden actions. Every time he did that, it was because his 'instincts' said so. They didn't know if it was really instinct or not, but that didn't matter. What mattered is the fact that they always find Elemental Flowers when they follow him.
But this time, Krune noticed something different.
"Hey, those are special flowers! Also, there are 11 of them!"
The others looked at Krune, and their eyes lit up!
"Really? Which type?"
Krune focused his Divine Sense on those flowers and then said.
"I'm not familiar with Space, Time, Destiny, and those things. But I felt the Dark and Light Elements before, so I can tell that it isn't those two."
Feifei, or better, Feier, then said with a smile.
"It is destiny."
Everyone, Krune included, looked at her.
"Are you sure?"
Wulia Feier nodded.
"I have some experience in divination, so I can at least tell that those Flowers have Destiny imbued in them."
Krune then warned everyone.
"As you probably expect, I can already sense the presence of quite a few Demon Beasts. Although there isn't anyone above the 4th Stage, there are still seven of them. Two 4th Stage, three 3rd Stage, and another two in the 2nd Stage. We are only in six here, which means that someone would have to hold two at the same time."
"That's not all, cultivation related, they are also above us. We only have a single 4th and 3rd Stages at the moment. This isn't going to be easy."
Krune could see that everyone was thinking about this issue. After that, he looked at Feifei.
Feifei seemed very determined to get those flowers, and Krune knew very well why. In the end, he asked through Divine Sense.
"Should we go a step further?"
Feifei looked back at him as well and nodded.
"Those flowers are very important to me. Even if we have to reveal a little more, I want to get them."
Krune just laughed and said.
"So what if we reveal more of our real strength? Since we can, let's do it. This is a good chance to try our combination attack."
Feifei laughed as well and nodded.
Jolk then stepped forward and said.
"Leave the two 4th Stage Demon Beasts for Feier and me. You guys only have to do one thing, hold the other 5 demon beasts for a few seconds."
Tinnian and the others were taken aback.
It was then that Rarol started to laugh again.
"Hahaha! Great! Then I will leave those two for you."
Marshine couldn't help but say.
"Wait, wait! Can you really deal with those two in just a few seconds? Aren't you overestimating yourselves?"
Feier shook her head.
"Don't worry. If this is Jolk and me, then I can guarantee that we can do it. Just trust us. If you see that it didn't work, just run away without us. Those beasts will never leave the Elemental Flowers behind, so you don't need to be afraid of being pursued."
Filio sighed and then said.
"Let's trust those two. Have they let us down until now? No, right? I'm also curious to see just what they are up to. Haha!"
Tinnian also nodded in the end.
"Those beasts have no intelligence. So I can hold two 3rd Stages by myself for as long as you need. Marshine can hold the other one. Filio and Rarol will take care of the rest."
Everyone nodded, and they immediately took action.
