A day later, Krune and everyone else were still cultivating when suddenly, a young man approached the pool while flying and entered it. If not for the fact that Lofa and Krune were quite familiar with his aura, they would definitely not recognize him.

"Tasier!"

Tasier looked at them and smiled.

"Yo!"

Lofa couldn't help but think.

'He turned out to be quite handsome now that he got his human form.'

Of course, she wouldn't be able to say that out loud. Tasier noticed Krune and Lofa looked at him as if he was some oddity and felt a little embarrassed.

"What are you looking at? I told you before, didn't I? I would need to reach the Core Formation Realm to be able to turn into my human form. Is there a need to stare at me for so long just because of that?"

Krune then laughed.

"It's just that I had long since got used to your Hawk form. Now that you became like this, I can't help but admire the difference."

Lofa immediately nodded vigorously!

Tasier then turned around and said.

"Whatever! Go back to cultivate. I will also use the rest of the time to stabilize my cultivation and foundation here. We can't lose time with idle chat like that."

Tasier then tried to walk away when suddenly, he tripped!

Krune looked at that and laughed out loud. Although Tasier had both his feet in his Hawk Form, it doesn't change the fact that the difference in shape and weight is enormous! Simply put, he still couldn't move his human body as he wished.

Krune and Lofa laughed at that, especially Krune since he had passed through the same situation before.

"Don't worry, we shall make sure that the others know about it in the future too."

Tasier felt like crying again. Can't they just forget that it happened?

Krune and Lofa laughed a little more and then went back to cultivate as well.

During the 10 days of the Spiritual Pool opening, three participants had broken through a stage. Today, they once more felt that someone was doing the same, and this time, it was really Krune! With his Elemental Meridians plus the fact that he didn't need to be afraid of damaging his foundation, it was just a question of time before he did that.

Of course, anywhere else and Krune would have to spend months to achieve that. First, their amount of spiritual energy that he can get from his spirit stones isn't even close to the Spiritual Pool. Second, he would need to care for his foundation all the while, which would take even more time.

'This thing really came in hand. It has been just around 2 months since I entered the Core Formation Stage, but I'm already at the 2nd stage. Anyway, I still have another twenty days, so I have to use this time to enter the 3rd stage or at least get close to it.'

There was another thing that made Krune happy, as well.

'Although not much, my foundation improved a bit too. It seems like not only can this pool avoid making your foundation going unstable, it can even clean it of impurities at the same time. I wonder just what kind of cultivation resources they used in this pool.'

Now that Krune had finally moved up a stage, a question appeared on his mind.

'Now that I think about it, what cultivation level is Feifei at?'

He did not check it before since he didn't care, but now that Krune broke through, he couldn't help but wonder. Krune then checked it with his Divine Sense, but in the end, all he could tell is that Feifei is in the Core Formation Stage too.

'For me to not being able to check what stage Feifei is with my soul power, she is definitely in the late stages, and I reckon that at least in the 8th one as well. I will ask her after the pool time is over. For now, it is better to not disturb her concentration.

Time passed, and the second week was over. Today, Lofa was finally able to reinforce her foundation and accumulate enough energy for a breakthrough. She then looked at Krune and Tasier and said.

"It's my time, so I'm going ahead."

They nodded to her and wished Lofa good luck. Lofa then took a final look at Feifei and left for the breakthrough.

Feifei, too, noticed that Lofa was gone but didn't say anything.

Both Krune and Tasier weren't concerned about Lofa's Heavenly Tribulation since she also had the Soul Healing Pill. Not to mention that she also passed through the Rainbow Sect soul tempering test together with Tasier, so her soul was a lot stronger now.

Sure enough, Lofa was already back the next day, just like Tasier. It wasn't that the heavenly Tribulation wasn't dangerous or easy to pass. Lofa and Tasier simply were lucky enough to have the right conditions to attempt it.

Lofa then looked at Krune and sighed.

She had noticed that now and then, Krune would give Feifei a glance, and Feifei also did the same. She came to understand that the chances that Krune would choose her were as slim as it could be.

During all this time, she didn't have a chance to talk to Krune alone. She, too, wanted to put an end to it just like Tasier suggested. Before Feifei appeared, her hopes were high since she thought that Feifei had already forgotten Krune. But now, Lofa could tell that Feifei wanted to be with Krune just as much as she did.

'After this Spiritual Energy Pool is over, I will tell him everything.'

The days continued to pass, and everyone was trying to take the most advantage of it. The Divine Path Sect Spiritual Pool was something that you could only find here. The other powers tried to get the secret behind its creation but failed time and time again. In the end, they gave up since it was something that can't truly affect the balance between the powers.

They, too, had their own ways to increase their cultivators and demon beasts power in a short time. It was just that they used different methods.

There was only more five days for them to stay in the Spiritual Pool. The participants could also see that the pool was a lot clearer than it was before. Obviously, it was due to their constant absorption that it turned out like that.

Again, another breakthrough happened between the participants. The grand elder of the Spiritas Kingdom looked at that and nodded.

"Good, you didn't waste this opportunity."

The one breaking through this time was Uriu Orion, and he was just entering the 9th stage of the Core Formation Realm! The Spiritual Energy moved in his direction like a whirlpool, and not too long after, he completed the process. Uriu then took a deep breath and opened his eyes. Although he seemed calm, one could see that there was some joy there.

'Several months of hard work in just 25 days. The Divine Path Sect Spiritual Pool is really magical. Anyway, I still have another five days, so I better use it to the fullest!'

He then closed his eyes once more and went back to cultivate.

By the end of the month, the Spiritual Pool was looking just like clean water. There was almost no spiritual energy inside anymore. Lucio and the grand elders saw that and decided that it was about time to finish it. But just as Lucio was about to call everyone out, he felt the surge of spiritual energy moving again. He then looked at who it was and immediately showed a smile.

'Hehe. You really are giving your master a lot of face, aren't you?'

The grand elders and everyone in the pool looked at Krune, amazed! In this 20 days, he was able to complete a full stage breakthrough! Although the Spiritual Pool can indeed increase the cultivation speed several times, it shouldn't be this heaven-defying! How could a wisp be so fast? If it was a Divine Beast, they could hardly accept it, but that is the weakest race in the universe!

Sometime later, the surge of Spiritual Energy was over, and Krune left the pool. After this last breakthrough, he could feel that the pool wouldn't be able to help him anymore. He had just absorbed everything that was still available around him, after all.

Lucio then came forward and said.

"Alright, time is up! Even if you continue there any longer, it won't be much different than cultivating outside. So go back to your rooms and rest for the next two days. After that, the Sect will call you out when the teaching schedule starts."

Everyone got up and thanked Lucio before leaving the pool. Except for a certain wisp, of course.

Krune and Feifei exchanged a few Divine Sense messages and decided to meet up later. But when they started to move back to their rooms, they noticed that they were going in the same direction.

"Could it be that old geezer's doing?"

Lofa noticed that and also followed together with Tasier. Not only them, but the Wang Clan participants were the same. It turns out that Lucio had arranged for their residences to be in the same place as Krune's, and Feifei's just so happened to be the one right beside Krune's house!

When Krune found out about that, he was completely sure.

'It was definitely him. I guess I will forgive you for the yelling at the pool this time.'

Krune then thought about bringing Feifei to his house to show everyone. Lakin and the others had always been curious to know just who this Feifei was and how she looked like. But just as he was about to do that, he received a Divine Sense message from Lofa.

"Krune, can we talk in private for a while?"

Krune was taken aback but nodded nonetheless. Now that the Spiritual Pool was over, he still had another 11 months before Feifei goes back to her Clan. It won't change anything if he introduces his disciple and the other wisps later.
