The Shocking Question

"BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!"

"Fifty..." Aether said that before slipping into unconsciousness from the pain.

*****************************************

How can such a person exist, how can such an ability exist in a lesser world at that, maybe he's the one I'm looking for" after saying that Amaila couldn't help but blush to see his handsome face.

"No, no, no, this guy is too scheming and handso- I mean evil, and most importantly he is my disciple how could I think of such things" Amalia slapped herself to get those indecent thoughts out of her head.

"Ughh..." Amalia looked back towards the sound and saw all the blood around Aether and immediately sent out another one of those Green pills into his mouth. This time, however, he didn't wake up immediately.

"As expected, after breaking all those seals his nerves must be in chaos, so it should take 2-3 days to heal I guess" Amalia quickly analyzed the situation and came up with an answer. She wrapped Aethers body in Qi and laid him next to her.

She looked at him once more, Smiled, and closed her eyes to rest.

********************************************

Inside Aethers, mind sea was a galaxy filled with stars of all sizes, shapes, and colors. But every time Aether tried to reach for one of those stars they would flee.

"Don't tell me this is the Star River??" Aether was first surprised than excited. When he was ten years old before his Mom passed and Dad left, the elders of the clan called those at the age of ten to the main stage of the training grounds. They did an awakening ceremony for their blessings, everyone in his age, unlike other years, received a blessing, even his cousin Han Wuji got a high-grade rank nine mortal blessing, making him the top talent of the Han Clan, and even places 10th on the top 10 geniuses in the country, while he didn't get one.

Knowing that he recalled what the elder in charge said and sat down in the lotus position and sent out waves of QI and wait for a blessing to choose you.

Aether waited, waited, and waited even more but no results, so he sent out even more waves and longer waves and still nothing. It was until a star as big as a world appeared in the distance, and all the smaller stars couldn't help but bow in submission, not because of its size, but the aura, it's letting off, an aura of a supreme ruler.

The sun finally reached In front of Aether, but far enough as Aether can still see the whole sun in all its greatness.

Aether gets up and looks at the sun and analyzes it, noticing this the sun scanned Aethers body to see what's so different with this boy to catch his attention. To its shock, this boy actually has a divine body that it has never seen before, and its level surpasses it in every way.

Aether was done checking out the sun and realized it is powerful and more imposing than anything he has ever seen.

"I want to form a bond with you. I want to roam the realms with you, I want to suppress all those that defy me in every way, I want to stand at the top of the world!!" Hearing this, the sun couldn't help but be shaken as this humans personality is just like his.

"Will you grant me your blessing?" Aether finished with eyes unwavering as always. Without even thinking the sun zoomed at Aether with lightning speed, and in an instant, the sun disappeared like it was never there before Aether could react he woke up.

****************************************

"Ah, my head hurts" Aether woke up out of his coma with a splitting headache.

"hehe, so you finally decide to wake up?"Amalia said as she giggled while covering her mouth. Seeing her laugh Aether couldn't help but blush, and wonder how can something so beautiful exist, but before he could turn his head away an ancient voice appeared in his head.

"One to suppress all…" the voice said in a low but powerful tone.

Instantly information flowed into Aethers head.

"This is?!" looking at the information, he couldn't help but be surprised as this was information regarding his blessing.

" Oh, I almost forgot to say that this blessing is "One to suppress all" you can target any being and they will be forced on the ground a maximum of ten seconds depending on how strong the person is in comparison to host, so it may not even work, but for those at the same level of power as host you can hold them there for a maximum of 30 seconds, and if the opponent is weaker than host then you can theoretically make them stay on the ground for eternity as long as you have enough Qi." The voice said, actually leaving this time.

Aether deduced that the voice was actually the sun from before.

"Why are staring at me like that? What have you fallen for me already?" Amaila said as she was tired of being stared down like a snack.

First feeling embarrassed for staring but doesn't want to lose a second time, Aether puts on a smile that could melt any maidens heart Aether replied: "And if I am?"

"Ba-dum, Ba-dum" Amalia can clearly hear her heart beating after hearing those words but quickly calmed herself down and tossed Aether a robe.

Looking at his clothes covered in blood Aether received the clothes and changed behind one of the pillars inside the throne room. Coming out from behind the pillar Aethers new robes were lined with silver and the main color white making him look like a lofty Celestial.

He came back and stood in front of Amalia, and Amalia asked "Why were you staring at me before" she said out of curiosity as it seemed he was in deep contemplation. So without holding anything back, he told her everything that he been through.

"One to suppress all eh, how domineering!!! Saying you alone can suppress all beings is like saying you're above all else, even the heavens!!" Amaila said with glowing eyes that made her look absolutely gorgeous.

"Ok now quickly let me see your Divine Body!" Amalia said excitedly, but she has a reason to be excited, as long as Aether cultivates to the peak his divine body alone will surpass the heavens.

"Umm, how do I do that?" Aether asked embarrassed.

"I don't know, all divine bodies are different, just call for it I guess" Amalia Shrugged.

"Ok. DIVINE BODY!!"Aether shouted while trying to act cool but nothing happened.

"Pfft...Pfft… PHAHAHAHA, it hurts, it hurts, I cant breathe AHAHAHAH…" Amaila couldn't hold it in any longer as she finally exploded with laughter. Aethers face turned red as a tomato from shame as he didn't know what he did wrong.

*******************************

After five minutes of non-stop laughing Amalia calmed herself down and suggested: "how about you just meditate and see if you can feel anything."

Giving a light sigh Aether sat down in the lotus position and circulated his Qi, unlike before he could freely move in his passages, it was like using a copper wire and electricity, smooth and no resistance.

On the outside, Amalia was shocked because all the Qi from the throne and all the Qi in the air was being sucked in by an invisible vortex on top of Aethers head and it Quickly entered his body.

********************************************

About half an hour of cultivating and Aether gets up and says "I feel great,"

Amalia smiled and asked, " What's your cultivation at?"

"What do you mean shou-...HOLY SHIT I BROKE THROUGH 4 TIMES?!"

Yes, Aether was at the 7th level of Body tempering in only 30 minutes.

"So, do you know what your Divine body is?" Amalia asked in an excited tone.

"Oh yeah!! Its call 'Devour All'!!" Aether said in a prideful tone as he gets to show off his new powers.

"Oooo sounds cool what does it do?" Recalling the information, he received, he recited it word for word. "Devour All, Devours all, if you want to devour Qi then you can suck the heavens dry of it, if you want to devour a mountain, only barren lands will remain, and if you cultivate to the pinnacle, if you want to devour the heavens, then even the heavens shall cease to exist!!"

Amalia was shocked, no she was simply horrified, she knows the information is not exaggerated as something as serious as this shouldn't be joked about. So the only explanation there is that this was a simple fact if Aether cultivates to the pinnacle he can devour the heavens itself.

Amalia Sucked in a cold breath and closed her eyes in contemplation. Seeing this Aether just stood there, waiting for her to absorb all the information.

A minute later Amalia opened her eyes, and a serious expression was on her face And asked a question that shocked Aether to his very soul.

"Do you wish to be the 7th Deadly Monarch?"
