Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 169 Rainbow Egg Divine Soul

Lucio's mouth twitched.

"Keep dreaming, I won't realize any last wish of yours, so find a way to resist it and do that yourself."

Lucio looked at Krune and wondered if he is really just a wisp. But doesn't how he look at him, Krune only looks like a wisp and nothing more. Seeing this gigantic Heavenly Tribulation that even some weak Divine Soul Realm breakthroughs have, made him sigh. Although he said that, even he doesn't know if Krune will be able to fend it off. After all, this Ordeal is bound to be at least 10 times stronger than a normal one.

Krune still had some time before the Tribulation comes down, so he took this time to think and ask.

"Light Spirit, do you have any ideas?"

Light Spirit was still paying attention to that rainbow egg of a Divine Soul when he heard Krune calling. He then looked at the sky and said.

"This is probably because of the change in your Divine Soul, as to why it happened, I have no idea. But I can say that it isn't this big because of me. I mentioned it in the past. Before the Tribulation Lightning comes down, it won't be able to feel my presence."

Krune didn't want to know that now, though.

"What I meant is if you have any idea of how to resist this Tribulation without dying! We can think about the Divine Soul later."

Light Spirit then went silent for a moment and said.

"The initial idea was to let the entire Tribulation Power enter your Universe Foundation and use it to cleanse the Tribulation Lightning in your Elemental Core. We still can do that, it is just that there will be no need for all of them, one or two should suffice with an Ordeal this big. So the question is what to do with the rest 7 bolts."

Krune pondered a bit and asked.

"The last bolt is always the strongest one, can we leave this one to do the cleaning of impurities in my Tribulation Lightning power?"

Light Spirit pondered about the power of the last Lightning and the size of the Ordeal and said.

"It should be possible, but the last one is a lot more powerful than the others. In this case, just that one alone will be enough. The question is what to do with the other 8 bolts."

It was then that Light Spirit remembered one thing.

"Oh, right! How could I have forgotten about that?! Because of the first impurities cleaning, you got enough Chaos Energy to make a Sun. Also, your Sun at the moment is very small and needs a lot of spiritual energy to grow into the size necessary to act as one. You can try to use the Tribulation Lightning Energy to feed it since the Ordeal does have a lot fo Spiritual Energy."

Krune's eyes lit up after hearing that. But then he thought about another issue.

"We are talking about a total of 8 bolts, can the Sun take it all?"

Light Spirit pondered once more and said.

"Probably not, but that is not a problem. Try to do like this, resist the first three bolts, then use the next five to feed the Sun. As for the last one, you only need to guide it into your foundation. I can take care of the rest to clean the impurities of your Tribulation Lightning power. I believe that you shouldn't have a problem if you only need to resist 3 of them."

Krune immediately agreed with that idea. He, too, is confident that he can take at least 3 of the bolts if he goes all out.

"Is there a problem if I use the Tribulation Lightning power to counter attack? I had done it back in the Makui Planet, after all."

Light Spirit agreed.

"No problem, what we are cleaning is the source of the power, not the power itself, so there is no issue if you use it to resist the Heavenly Tribulation."

Krune was happy to hear that. He decided that he will use the Tribulation Lightning to resist the 3rd one while the first 2 will be held by his own power and shields.

Because his Tribulation clouds were a lot bigger than normal Core Formation Realm breakthrough, it took quite some time until the first bolt charged up. It wasn't before 30 minutes before the first one came down.

Boom!

Krune used his shield and charged them with Earth Element, which is the best one against Lightning. Still, some of the power passed through and hit him. Fortunately, Krune was already prepared for that and protected himself by sending several attacks that he had readied beforehand against the Lightning Bolt.

Lucio looked at that and was amazed. The very first Lightning bolt already had the power of the last one of a normal Core Formation Realm breakthrough. But what really surprised him was how Krune resisted it with so much easy. Lucio could feel confidence coming from Krune's defense. Perhaps, Krune could really resist it! Although Lucio wasn't showing it on his face, the truth is that he is really worried about Krune. He is his first disciple (although by force), after all!

The 2nd lightning bolt came down a little after, and Krune used the same method to resist it. The only problem was that some of his Hexagonal Shield Immediately shattered after being hit by it. Still, it wasn't all of them, and the ones that did also helped to dissipate quite a lot of the power. After counter-attacking the rest of the power, some of it still hit his wisp body. But Krune didn't care, that remaining power wasn't enough to cause him any severe damage.

Lucio was looking at everything and saw the moment that Krune's shields shattered.

'Why didn't I get him to make better ones?! I was so sure that this Ordeal was going to be easy that I didn't even consider this possibility. If he survives this, I will definitely have him make some good ones.'

Krune then started to charge his own Tribulation Lightning Power to counter-attack the 3rd bolt of Lightning. As soon as it came down, Krune also sent his own up!

Boom!

Both powers annulated each other, and the third bolt was gone just like this. Unfortunately, Krune used a lot of Tribulation Lighting Power to achieve that. He had calculated how powerful the 3rd one would be and had no choice but to do this.

After that, Krune immediately summoned his own Elemental Meridians out and opened them fully.

"Now, I can only count with you guys and my Sun."

This was the first time that Lucio saw Krune's Elemental Meridians. He already knew about their existence since it is described in the Myriad Wisps Technique. But seeing it with his own eyes is another story.

'As I thought, the Myriad Energies Technique wasn't supposed to be a simple common technique. But just how did he think about this? I pondered about it for quite some time, but I still couldn't find an answer.'

Lucio stopped thinking about that since the Forth Tribulation came down. As soon as it touched those Colored Meridians, they absorbed the Lightning Power entirely as if it was nothing. Let alone Lucio, even the disciples around, were frightened at that sight!

"Just how powerful are those meridians?"

But Lucio knew better! He knows that although the Lightning Power was absorbed, it didn't disappear, which means that it is going rampant inside Krune's Core right now!

Krune, on the other hand, was quite calm. One of the advantages of the Myriad Energy Techniques is the fact that you can materialize them anywhere you want in your foundation. Since that is the case, Krune had obviously connected them directly to his Sun! The power of the Lightning Struck that mass of fire, and it started to eat the Lightning Power as if it was the most delicious thing in the universe!

In just a few seconds, the Sun had doubled in size. All the Tribulation Lightning power was immediately converted into the Sun's power! Krune saw that and was relieved. Considering how easily his Sun took that power, it should have no problem to resist the next 4.

Tribulation bolt after Tribulation bolt continued to fall, but the Sun took them all. Still, Krune was happy that Light Spirit told him to let only 5 be absorbed. By the time that the 8th Tribulation Lightning bolt was done with, his Sun started to show signs of instability! Light Spirit noticed Krune worry and immediately said.

"Don't worry, it won't be enough for the Sun to collapse. Given the right time, it will come back to normal sooner or later. Now, move the Elemental Meridians close to the Elemental Core, the rest is up to me!"

Krune knew that is wasn't time to admire that and did as Light Spirit said.

He connected all 9 Elemental Meridians to his Elemental Core and waited for the Life Ending Tribulation Lightning Bolt. As expected, the last bolt took a lot of time to charge. At the same time, the Tribulation Clouds reduced severely in size due to the power being taken away.

The Tribulation Lightning came down and struck the Meridians. It was definitely at the power of a Divine Soul Realm Tribulation Lightning! It was so strong that even the Elemental Meridians had some difficult to absorb it. Fortunately, they were still able to take it in.

The Tribulation Lightning hit Krune's Elemental Core Head-On and started to run rampant inside, it even wanted to eliminate Krune's Divine Soul 'Rainbow Egg.'

"Hmph! With me here, I want to see if you can do as you wish, old villainous Heavens!"

Tribulation Lighting was HIS power, and he refused to believe that he couldn't control it. Slowly, that power started being absorbed by the Tribulation Lightning Source inside Krune's Elemental Core, and the impurities that were still there also slowly came out. Krune looked at that worried, but it seemed like Light Spirit didn't give a damn! He focused on the Tribulation Power and made sure that it wouldn't damage Krune's Elemental Core or Divine Soul Egg.

Sometime later, all that rampant Tribulation Power was gone, and what remained was only the last bit of Chaos Energy that could be generated by the rest of the impurities.

Krune finally let out a sigh of relief when he saw that everything was finally over.

"Well done, Light Spirit!"

"Hmph! This much is nothing."

Although Light Spirit said that, Krune could feel that his voice was a lot weaker. It was evident that he had struggled quite a bit to get this done. Krune, of course, wouldn't point it out. He is very grateful by what Light Spirit did. With his Sun saturated and no meanings of defense anymore, if Light Spirit hadn't taken care of the last Lightning Bolt, he would be dead for sure!

Krune then looked at that rainbow smoke that was the Chaos Energy and started to ponder where he should use it. Light Spirit already told him that the remaining Chaos Energy that he could get wouldn't be enough to create another celestial body, after all.

"Well, I guess I will use it to stabilize my Foundation now that I broke through."

But before he could even touch that energy, his Elemental Core started to absorb it on its own!

"The hell?!"

In fact, it wasn't his Elemental Core that was doing, but the Divine Soul 'Rainbow Egg' instead! In just a few seconds, the entire Chaos Energy was sucked inside of it. Even Light Spirit was taken aback by that.

"What a weird Divine Soul."

Krune could see that the rainbow egg that was quite ethereal before now looked very solid, just like a real egg. It then started to glow, and some kind of strands like hair connected it to the whole Elemental Core. After that was done, Krune could finally feel the connection between himself and his Elemental Core. That is the main difference in the Core Formation Realm, the possibility of using the Elemental Core's power!

"It seems like it is finally over."

Krune agreed with Light Spirit too. As for what is different about the rainbow egg Divine Soul, Krune will take his time to check it out later.

Krune then looked at his Master and said.

"Master, I succeed!"

But for some reason, after Krune looked at his Master, he could see that his expression was quite weird. Not only him, even the disciples around, had quite funny faces while looking at him.

"Errr... what is it?"

Lucio noticed that he was paying too much attention to Krune and then said awkwardly.

"Cough, cough. Nothing much, it is just that this is the first time I see a rainbow wisp."

Krune was taken aback by those words and immediately conjured a crystalline water wall in front of him. It then reflected the image of his appearance. Krune saw that and almost fainted!

Sure enough, Krune's wisp form now was quite... colorful!
