Chapter 389 - Follow Me, Idiot Wisp
Krune couldn't believe what he was seeing in the World of Laws. As far as he knows, only a Space Divine Soul would be able to understand anything about Space Laws in the Divine Soul Realm. At most, Krune thought that he would see it somewhere around the Soul Forging Realm, or maybe only in the Void Breaking Realm.
The Space Sub-Laws were composed of Expansion, Contraction, Displacement, Connection, and Void. The Sub-Law that Krune ended noticing and comprehending first was Contraction, which was the main one used in the Space Lock Trap Formation. Not only he grasped it, during that trance, Krune went as far as reaching the Advanced Stage!
Krune then gathered the Space Laws on his hands, and Space itself started to contract in a blink of an eye. Next time Krune and Feifei noticed, the Space above his hand looked somewhat blurry. Feifei tried to move her hand inside but saw that some kind of force was stopping her hand from doing so.
"This... isn't it similar to the Space Lock Formation that I'm building?"
Krune nodded.
"Yes... but why am I able to see the Space Laws now?"
Feifei looked at Krune with a smile.
"What happened after you came here?"
Krune pondered a bit and said.
"I came here to ask if you wanted me to make some weapon or armor with Purple Flames. But then I saw how concentrated you were on the Formation, so I decided to wait. For some reason, seeing you working around with the Formating made me feel quite at ease, so I just paid attention without bothering you. Let me see... at some point, my mind started to become empty of any thoughts as I got relaxed until finally, I wasn't thinking about anything anymore. It was at that moment that I think I started to see the Space Laws even though I wasn't really trying to."
Feifei couldn't help but feel happy.
"So seeing me makes you feel relaxed, is it?"
Krune nodded without hesitation. It was in moments like this that his personality worked the best. He wouldn't feel the least bit embarrassed to admit it.
Feifei then said.
"I heard it from Uncle Feng and Father, it seems like what you experienced was called enlightenment or trance. A state of mind where everything else doesn't matter anymore. In this state, everything about what you are comprehending becomes as clear as the blue skies. The Space Lock Trap Formation uses mainly the Contraction Sub-Law, so it ended being the first Space Law you ever experienced. Unfortunately, this condition only happens by chance; it isn't something that one can enter just because they want to."
"Ah!"
It was then that Feifei noticed a problem.
"Sorry."
Krune looked puzzled at Feifei.
"For what?"
Feifei sighed with a sad face.
"What kept you in that state was probably me and the work I was doing in the Formation. So when I stopped working on it and came out, the focus of your enlightenment was probably broken. If hadn't come out or-"
Krune put his hand on Feifei's cheek before she could finish talking.
"Apologizing? Why? I wasn't supposed to be able to see Space Laws at this moment. It was the vision of my Feifei working with her big belly that put me in that state to start with, so I can't even thank you enough. As we know, without a Space Divine Soul, I should only be able to see it at the Void Breaking Realm. Maybe, with some luck, the Soul Forging Realm. But look at me now. I can see the Space Sub-Laws thanks to you."
Feifei could never understand how Krune could say so many embarrassing words so easily. Still, she couldn't feel happier at the moment.
Krune then asked.
"Since you stopped working on the Formation, does it mean that you finished?"
"Oh!"
Feifei's mind was so caught by the event that she completely forgot the hungry girl inside her. She immediately took several Spirit Stones out and started to absorb the Spiritual Energy while talking with Krune.
"I'm not done yet. I will probably take two or three more days before I finish. I only made a pause because our Kid was complaining about the lack of Spiritual Energy. This girl is bound to bankrupt us, you will see."
Krune couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Don't worry, father will make sure to work hard to prevent that from happening."
He also took that opportunity to ask again.
"Feifei, do you want some kind of Purple Flame weapon or armor? I have quite a lot of Kaleu Tribulation Steel, more than I need for my Flying Shields. I could use this chance to make something that you need."
Feifei pondered a bit and said.
"Although I know a little of the Lightning Sub-Laws, I'm not that proficient with them. So it would be quite a waste to use it to make me something."
Krune's eyes lit up after hearing that.
"Does that mean you do have something you want?"
Feifei nodded.
"I'm also a long-range attacker who is more focused on support than firepower. So it would be good if I had something that could increase my attack power if I can't pass through the enemy's defense."
Krune nodded. That was indeed the case.
"Something for attack... Have you ever considered flying swords? With your control and destiny laws, they should prove quite efficient."
Feifei pondered a bit and thought that it might be worth a try. She had never used swords before, but the same could be said for other weapons. In that case, whatever she got, she would need to learn from the start.
"Alright, but Flying Swords made of Kaleu Tribulation Steel won't be of much use for me. It would be better if they were neutral or had something with Water Elements. After all, Water Sub-Laws are the ones I'm best at other than Destiny. It is just that Destiny doesn't have any attack power what so ever."
Krune nodded. Considering the time half a year, that should be more than enough to find some useful Water Element related material.
"Good! Then I'm going to start looking for the material necessary. I'm going to use a Fire Crytal to get something good."
Feifei nodded. Usually, she would think that it might be a waste to use Fire Crystals on it. But with her child there now, she was willing to get all the help she could.
"Once you forge or ask someone else to do it, make sure it doesn't surpass the Three Diamond Stars Level. If I get something higher than that, I won't be able to control it well. Especially since I will have several of them. Oh, right! Make me nine swords at first."
Krune didn't understand why she wanted exactly nine swords, but he didn't ask either. She must have a reason for requesting that number.
It was then that Feifei said.
"Once you are finished with your shields and my swords, bring them to me. I want to try something new I had been practicing recently."
Krune was surprised by that.
"Formation Weapons?"
Feifei smiled and nodded.
"Yes. The Stars Path Formations Master that came last time helped me to clarify several things about them. Although most of the Formations Masters only start using them at the Diamond Stars level, it doesn't mean that those Formations need Chaos Energy. It is just that their Formation Building Skills are not good enough before that. After all, their scale is entirely different. But I believe that if I use my Destiny Divine Soul, I can make it happen. Of course, it will still be tough, and I will probably fail several times. But I'm confident that I can do it."
Krune was obviously more than happy to have something like that in his Shields.
"Sure, I will make bring them to you."
Krune then asked more about the Swords Feifei would like to use: length, weight, form, etc.
"Now, I only need to ask Dilo."
Feifei looked puzzled at Krune.
"Dilo?"
Krune nodded.
"Dilo also uses a Sword. It is just that his Sword is still a low-level Golden Stars one. Even if I don't use my Purple Flames, the Swords I can make at the moment are much better than that. So I might as well ask if he doesn't want something new. Besides, I noticed that he had been focusing on Lightning Elements and Sub-Laws recently. In that case, I can use the remaining Kaleu Tribulation Steel to make something nice for him too."
Feifei nodded.
"That is a good idea, indeed."
Krune and Feifei then talked for some time when Krune finally decided to leave. But just as he stood up, Feifei grabbed his arm. Seeing that, krune looked at her and asked.
"Did you forget something?"
Feifei, with an embarrassed face, suggested.
"You don't need to really go back now, right? It had been some time since we... you know..."
Krune got puzzled.
"We... you know... what?"
Feifei sighed, hearing that.
"I was an idiot to expect you to understand. Just follow me, idiot wisp."
That night, Krune was 'forced' to understand what Feifei meant with those words. He probably wouldn't forget again.
