Lucio thought that he had already seen everything and said.
"Alright, that''s enough for now."
Krune then stopped attacking and wait to see what his Master would say.
"As I can see, it seems like everything is normal with the way that your Elemental Core works. The only difference is your control over the Elemental Source Energy. It is a lot better than any of us here when we were in your realm."
Lucio then exined the difference inbat prowess between him and the others. Krune, of course, was ecstatic to hear that!
"Is it that good?!"
Lucio nodded and then asked a question.
"By the way, your first Sun in your foundation has grown quite a bit after absorbing the Heavenly Tribtion. Is it possible to make your orbit it now?"
Krune immediately shook his head.
"No. I checked it as soon as the Ordeal was over. The problem is that my Sun is too unstable at the moment, so its gravitational pull is disorderly. But as I can see, it should stabilize in a week or so, then I''m going to do what Master said."
Lucio nodded and added.
"Good, the more it acts as a real universe, the smoother your foundation will be. Of course, it is just one Sun and one so far, so the difference that you will feel will be minuscule."
Krune nodded. Light Spirit had already told him that.
"Alright, you go back and spend the next month or so reinforcing and stabilizing your cultivation. There is no point in cultivating at the moment since your body will need time to get used to it. It should also coincide with your Feifei''s arrival for the exchange program."
Krune nodded, but before he left, he decided to ask his Master another thing that was bothering him.
"Master, after I broke through into the Core Formation Realm, I found something weird inside my core. Can you take a look at this?"
Krune then opened his foundation for view and guided his Master with Divine Sense to the right ce. There, one could see some kind of Mark silent staying without moving at all.
Krune had asked Light Spirit if he knew what it was, but Light Spirit had no idea. All that Light Spirit said was that it had some power infused inside. Still, it couldn''t do him any harm, nor could it be used for anything cultivation rted. It also couldn''t be tracked either. At most, it could be used as a means of identification like an ID, but that was all. As for what that power inside served for, he had no idea. Krune didn''t know when it appeared, too. In the end, he decided to ask his Master if he knew what it was.
Lucio then took a look at that and was taken aback!
"This- This is!"
By Lucio''s reaction, Krune understood that it wasn''t just a mark, after all.
Suddenly, Lucio started tough.
"Wang Xin, I''m looking forward to seeing your face in the future. Hahahaha!"
Krune got even more puzzled. But he could at least understand that it had something to do with the Wang n now and that it was probably Feifei or Uncle Feng that left it there. Lucio then looked at Krune and said.
"Don''t worry, this thing can''t do any harm to you. In fact, this is something that you probably will like very much."
Krune then asked what it was, but Lucio then shook his head.
"You should ask your Feifei when shees to the Sect. I''m sure she can answer your question. Consider it as a surprise."
Although Krune was still somewhat puzzled, he let it at that. Since it is something good and rted to Feifei, then he doesn''t care about keeping it with him. Krune then returned to his residence and did as his Master said. He immediately started to reinforce and stabilize his foundation. But there was one thing different.
"Master said to spend a month doing it, but as I can see, I won''t need more than two weeks to get everything under control. Well, that''s even better, and I guess I will spend some time doing other things. I still haven''t gone to the Alchemist or cksmith Halls to take a look yet."
Krune only stayed at home for 3 days when suddenly, he received a message from his Master.
"Go to the cksmith Hall and have better shields created. During thest tribtion, they shattered way too easily. I can''t have you using something soo bad."
Krune didn''t like that finalment since he knows how much effort Marcus put on forging those shields. Still, in his Master''s eyes, it is indeed something of inferior quality. It had nothing to do with Lucio being disrespectful, he was just stating a fact. Krune''s shields are indeed very bad when you consider the ce that he is at the moment.
Krune then decided that he would go to the cksmith Hall the next day to check his Master''s arrangements. He then took his remained Hexagonal Shields out and packed them carefully. After that, he asked for one of the wisps to send it back to the Makui. He also left a recorded message inside so Marcus could take a look. Perhaps, it can help him in the future.
The next day, Krune took the closest teleport formation to the cksmith Hall. This time, he had brought his hat together, so his rainbow hair was hidden. Thanks to that, no one paid attention to him. Core Formation Realm cultivators and demon beasts are extremelymon here, after all.
Krune went to the counter and showed his Master''s badge, that would be the fastest way to get things done.
The attendant saw that and almost jumped in fright.
"You ar-"
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Krune immediately closed the attendant''s mouth before he could say anything else.
"No need to let everyone know, right?"
The attendant nodded and understood what Krune meant. After that, he asked.
"How can I help you today?"
Krune then said.
"Master sent me here to have some shields forged. But I also want to get some cksmith Study material and items to improve my forging. Do you know how to proceed from here?"
The attendant nodded.
"Do you already have a badge registered in the Divine Path cksmith alliance?"
Krune nodded and passed it over. When the attendant saw that, he was taken aback.
''The Sect Master disciple is only a 3 bronze stars cksmith?''
He was quite disappointed with what he saw. Still, he reminded himself that Krune came from a very weak, so it was understandable that the cksmith skills and teachings over there are not that great.
"Should I call a cksmith from the Hall first, or do you want to get the cksmith Materials instead?"
Krune pondered a bit and decided to call for someone first, he wants to ask what level of Divine Imprints he should need before forging the shields. As mentioned before, flying equipment is much easier to control if they have Divine Imprints made by the user himself. But the level of the Shields that Krune will get now is probably entering the Silver Stars. He needs to know to which Rank he should improve his forging first to create an equivalent Divine Imprint.
The attendant nodded and immediately called a cksmith. Krune then was guided into one of the cksmith rooms, and a few minutester, the guy who was going to forge his shields appeared.
"Hello there, my name is Elres Jorde. I already received the Sect Master''s message regarding this issue, so you can simply ask what you want. But remember, this will be a one time service. After it is concluded, any new equipment must be bought with merit points, so be careful."
Krune then asked.
"Could it be that I''m breaking the rules?"
Elres shook his head.
"No, every new Inner Sect Disciple has to right to have a single Silve Star equipment forged for free for them to use on their missions. Outer Sect Disciples can have one Bronze Star equipment of their choice too. Core Sect Disciples have the right to get one Golden Star Equipment. But for Golden Star Equipment, they will need to provide the materials by themselves. Golden Star Equipment Material is very expensive, after all."
Krune got puzzled after hearing that.
"Bronze Stars cksmiths?"
Elres noticed that Krune didn;t hear that term before and immediately understood the situation.
"Oh, you came from a weak called Makui, right? If I''m not wrong, they don''t have any Silver Stars cksmiths there. That means that for them, the stars are just that. Simply put, the normal stars cksmiths that you know are what we call Bronze Stars cksmiths. There is no difference, though. It is just a way of identifying them."
Krune nodded after hearing that. Still, he was surprised with such a good service. But then again, it makes sense. This is the Divine Path Sect, it goes without saying that their Disciples must use the best equipment ording to what part of the Sect they are. In a certain way, it is directly connected to the Sect''s face.
Krune then started to exin about his shields and how he uses them. Elres heard everything and then confirmed.
"So they have to be of the same size as the old ones, have to be able to be charged with any elements, need to be hexagonal, and a total of 38 are necessary to make a set. Is that correct?"
Krune nodded, and then he asked another thing.
"Also, I intend to make the Divine Imprints myself. What Rank should I achieve for that?"
Elres looked at Krune, surprised. He didn''t expect that the Sect Master was also a cksmith.
"That''s the right thing to do. I reckon that you are not making the shields, too, because your Rank isn''t high enough for that. But just the fact that you will make the Divine Imprints can already be considered very good."
Elres continued.
"To achieve all the requisites you asked me, we will need to use Core Magma Ore, which will turn your Shields into a Seven Silver Stars equipment. I could get some rarer ore and materials to make a Peak Nine Silver Stars equipment. Still, I reckon that it wouldn''t be so easy to control without a powerful enough Soul."
Krune then asked.
"Do you have a way for me to check if my Soul is strong enough to control a peak Nine Stars?"
Elres thought that Krune was being too hasty since even the Seven Silver Star would already be very difficult, but he still nodded in the end. Elres then took out 38 pieces of Spiritual Spring Ore and said.
"These here are all Peak Silver Star materials, Spring Spiritual Ores. They haven''t been forged yet, and they don''t have Divine Imprints. But if your Soul is strong enough, you should be able to control them all at the same time to a certain extent. If you can make them followplicated orders, then your Soul should be good enough to control the real ones."
Krune nodded and immediately charged those ores with spiritual energy and several different elements. Krune is very confident about his soul power, which was already at the Core Formation Realm level during the Foundation Establishment. Now that he is in the Core Formation Realm, it has be even stronger!
Sure enough, the ores immediately started to float and follow all of Krune''s orders. Although it was somewhat difficult to control them, that was because they still don''t have Divine Imprints and haven''t been forged into proper Shields.
Elres saw that and was amazed.
"As expected of the Sect Master''s first disciple, even though you are a wisp, you didn''t disappoint."
Krune ignored the wispment and asked.
"So, what level of Divine Imprints will I need to make for them?"
Elres nodded and said.
"Those are Peak Nine Silver Star Shields, so you will need to be at least a Five Siver Stars cksmith."
Krune was already expecting it that he would need to improve a lot, but it was still more than he expected.
''Well, whatever. Sooner orter, I would need to reach this level anyway.''
