Aether immediately went on his knees and said: "I, Aether Stone, accept you as my Master from this day forward." He swore an oath of discipleship.
"Oh, that's al-WAIT WHAT?!"
****************************************************
Aether rose to his feet with a cute and innocent smile on his face. Yet when the Beauty saw Aethes face horror filled her face. she swore she would grant any wish he asked for, adding to the fact that she even used her father's name she cants take it back now.
"How cunning," she said while shock still evident in her eyes.
Aether couldn't help but embarrassingly scratch the back of his head when he heard her words, as he really played her into taking him in as a disciple. But she said 'ANYTHING', not me" Aether inwardly told himself.
"So master, as a congratulatory for taking me in as a disciple shouldn't you gift me something," said Aether as he didn't forget to try to gain more benefits.
"I didn't agree to shit, you tricked me!!" the beauty though, but wouldn't say as it would be un-ladylike to do so.
"First and foremost call me by my name, Amalia, second, place your hand onto this globe so I can test your cultivation talent" Although Amalia knows that Aether is only at third stage of body Tempering realm so his talent might be Terrible, she just wanted a general idea of the of what's going on inside his body.
Taking note of Amalia's name, Aether placed his right hand on the crystal.
"SHOOO!!...Bwooooo.."
A blinding light rushed to all four corners in the room but quickly left before it came.
"What the..?" Amalia furrowed her brows as if trying to figure out why the light won't stay on. "Do it again" Amalia commanded, and as such Aether complied.
"SHOOO!!...Bwooooo.." the scene from before quickly replaced itself. "Try it again," Amalia said while not understanding the problem.
"SHOOO!!...Bwooooo.."
"Again!"
"SHOOO!!...Bwooooo.."
"Again!!"
"SHOOO!!...Bwooooo.."
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS THING!!" Amaila said while completely forgetting her ladylike manners.
"Maybe it's me... I obviously have no talent" Aether said as he said with a self-mocking smile
"No, no, no, it can't be you, if you really had no talent it wouldn't even change or at least have a little glow to it, but its first shows with brilliance then just disappears? It's either the artifact is broken or.."
"Or what?!" Aether said with eagerness written all over his face.
Amaila furrowed her brows in contemplation as she continued "Or something in your body is preventing your talent from showi-" but before she could continue a sudden thought popped up in her head as she came to a sudden realization. A regular sized book popped out of thin air.
Aether wasn't surprised at all, because all cultivators with wealth or high cultivation have a space ring, and knowing this entire palace is Amalias, he would be surprised if she didn't have one.
"Yippee!!"
Flipping through the Ancient looking book, Amalia finally found what she was looking for.
"What is it?!" Aether couldn't hold it in as he rushed to see what was in the book. The title of the chapter shocked him to his very core.
"Divine Body!"
"It's a Divine Body!!"
Aether And Amaila both said in almost perfect unison, the next moment Amaila stated reading.
"A Divine body are anomalies of the heaven, they grant you mysterious powers that can either be for attaching, defensive, or a very rare case would be auxiliary-type divine body, as that supports you in your path of cultivation, ranging from instantly making peak grade pills, to have an affinity with all elements. There is no fixed amount of Divine bodys, as some are being created right now, and others are being destroyed by the heavens. As to how to Judge the level of prowess a divine body has, you have to count how many seals are blocking the host's body to cultivate on a scale of 1-20
1 being extremely weak and 20 being the strongest, anything above that is going against the heavens, and will be destroyed when it's time for the host's tribulation"
-Glug-Saying that Amaila quickly drank some water because her throat was dry. Seeing this Aether just ignored it and waited for her to continue
"Ok, if my theory is correct then you have a divine body and so we need to break the seals that bind you,"Amaila said while still having a face full of pride for solving the problem.
"How do you do that?" Aether inquired.
"Simple actually, I'll inject you with my Qi, and you guide it through your passages," Amaila said in a nonchalant manner like it was a simple matter.
But when Aether heard these words his face turned pale as a ghost. "Isn't that how yo-you crip-ple someone?" Aether said with some difficulty.
Amalia had a mischievous expression on when she said: "that's what I was going to say next, it will hurt really bad, probably the worst pain imaginable, but you have to stay conscious the entire time and guide the Qi if you don't however.."
Amaila didn't have to say it, as Aether already knew the answer "I'll be crippled" he thought inwardly.
"Or.." Amaila started to speak once again
"Or what?!" as long as there is another way Aether would definitely do it.
"We search the universe for a legendary pill that can clear all meridians," Amaila said with a smile, in contrast, Aethers facial expression darkened "She's definitely getting payback!!" Aether thought as he came to the conclusion that she was playing with him.
"I'll choose the first option, the second one will take too long, and I don't like waiting for things I could have now" Aether could do nothing towards Amaila as she is stronger, so he just played along and gave a justified answer for his choice.
Amaila was shocked, yes it would take longer to get the pill, but not long to the point of getting bored of waiting, maybe a year or two. But in the end, Aether didn't know Amaila was telling the truth so thus he chose the first choice.
"Are you sure?" Amaila asked once again.
"Eh, its either I get crippled now or I get crippled later, crippled is crippled so it doesn't matter when," Aether said with a brave front.
"Ok then sit crossed legged, Let's start!" Although curious as to what he means by later, Amaila wanted to do the task at hand, so she will ask him later.
Aether sat down in the lotus position awaiting for the Qi to enter his body, "hold onto this strand" Amaila sent out her Qi into Aether and using his own Qi Aether held onto it. It was hot, very hot, hot enough to melt mountains and evaporate seas. He ran both strands of Qi into his body and for the first time while cultivating Aether saw a door, one as dark as night, yet shiny as Steele, suddenly he heard Amalia's voice.
"Haha I was right, after all, you really do have a divine body, now just take my Qi and SMASH IT!!" Amaila said, although very excited.
Listening to her, without a second thought Aether rushed at the door and crashed into it.
"BOOOOM!!!" the door burst open and Aether immediately felt heart-wrenching course through his body like lightning. But without stopping he moved towards the second door.
"Hehe, that's one.." He heard Amalia's voice and continued.
"BOOOOM!!!"
"TWO!"
"BOOOOM!!!"
"THREE!"
"BOOOOM!!!"
"FOUR!"
*****************************************
"BOOOOM!!!"
"TWELVE!"
"BOOOOM!!!"
"THIRTEEN"
"BOOOOM!!!"
"FOURTEEN"
******************************************
"BOOOOM!!!"
"NINETEEN, come on!! one more to go, you can do this!!!"
"BOOOOM!!!"
"TWENTY, haha in knew you cou-" but before Amaila could say anything another door appeared, and this one is grander than before, as instead of black it was Golden.
"Who would've thought you had this much talent.." Amaila was at lost for words.
Aether smiled as he heard what she said about his talent. But due to guiding the Qi, and had to focus, so he didn't say anything.
Aether charged towards the door at full throttle.
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"TWENTY-ONE"
"Haha good you really are a gen-" Amaila said but once again there was another one.
Completely focused, Aether rushed to the next one even though the pain intensified.
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"HAHA TWENTY-TWO"
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"TWENTY-THREE"
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
******************************************
"What the..?"
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"Thirty-six?" At this point, Amaila was at a loss, "how could someone be this talented..?"
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"Thirty- seven.."
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"Thirty-eight.."
******************************************************
"BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"OK WTF IS HAPPENING" If before she was shocked, now she is horrified. "I Feel so bad for this world.." Amaila started thinking of the monster she created.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"
"Fifty.." Aether said that before slipping into unconsciousness from the pain.
