Chapter 303 Tiana And Felicia’s Situation (Part 2)

The slight tension that was lingering in the room disappeared, thinking about it from a logic point of view, although Felicia literally discovered one of Aster's abilities which could turn the cultivation world upside down, she also shared her most guarded secret, or Erick wouldn't have told them about that sensibility towards spirit energy that his mother and sister had.

One must give goodwill before expecting to receive it, that's a common thing in the cultivation world, unfortunately ungratefulness is also quite common, so they had no way to know what would Aster's reaction would be like, Felicia literally betted that someone her son would befriend wouldn't be a double-faced person and she was right this time.

Aster nodded at Erick, knowing he had the hands tied by the situation before he looked at Felicia.

"I don't believe you told accepted the risk of me obliterating this sect, while also telling me you most treasured secret for nothing, so the question here is, what did you want to achieve?".

Felicia smiled pointing at the room where Camila was resting.

"I want your help to... break through and also for you to lend a hand to my daughter when the time comes, just see my inner universe and you'll understand why would I accept such a high risk".

Aster frowned, normally he doesn't use abnormally strong spirit sense to spy into other people's situations, unless they are enemies of course.

But since had gotten so far, he stood up and placed his hand on Felicia's shoulder as he focused his attention on her dantian, even before reaching her inner universe he noticed there was something different about it.

Its size was about ten times the ones he has seen before, physically the size of a dantian doesn't change, the reserves of spirit energy depend on the sizes of the star core and the other stars that exist within the inner universe, even he wasn't an exception in that aspect.

'Well, it could be because I don't have an energy type constitution', he thought remembering that he got a soul constitution thanks to Sarina becoming a star maiden.

Another thing he noticed was that her dantian was completely black ink colored, and his spirit sense was repelled when he tried to look inside it.

"It's not on purpose, my constitution affects my dantian, as you probably already noticed, so I can't control some aspects", said Felicia feeling Aster's interrogative gaze on her.

Aster increased the output of his spirit sense and only after reaching his maximum current capacity, he was able to see Felicia's inner universe.

And the scenery was quite something else, everything was inverted, normally an inner universe is a black space illuminated by little lights which resemble and later turn into stars, but Felicia's was a blank space with lots of dark spheres floating all over the place, and that wasn't all, a body cultivator doesn't create a constellation like an energy cultivator, but it should still have a star core and Felicia didn't.

"How can an energy constitution cultivator not be adequate to cultivate in the energy path", mumbled Aster, now that he noticed, both Felicia and Tiana were body/soul path cultivators, but their constitution was energy type, it didn't make sense.

Felicia bitterly sighed, she tried to drag spirit energy to her dantian and just like Aster's first try with his spirit sense, it was repelled.

"It's precisely for that, that we can't cultivate in the energy path, our dantian are quite "picky" when it comes to spirit energy, in fact if we have chosen the energy path, we would have been stuck at the Earth Origin realm, because with each breakthrough the quality required goes up".

"The body path puts less focus in spirit energy and that's why we chose it as our main, and the soul as our second, but even then, the limit is the Star Tribulation realm is the limit, because to get to our breaking point we need spirit energy".

Felicia then lovingly looked at her daughter with a slight tinge of guilt as she continued.

"These constitutions make us stronger than others but at the same time limit us, I told my daughter to go to a higher ranked place to look for a fortunate encounter which would allow her to advance... to be honest I had already resigned myself since I have visited the places were the Atria family lives and even that spirit energy wasn't good enough, but then you appeared".

"As I said I would like to ask for your help to breakthrough, of course it won't be free, I'm already married so I can't be yours, but I can act as your sword or your shield for the next five years in exchange, as long as you help us keep advancing, I will serve you".

Felicia then let her spirit pressure flood the room, the air surrounding her trembled before a dark light with purple borders covered her body, making Sarina and even Eris and Mylene to frown.

Even Lilia couldn't help but show a bit of surprise in her beautiful ruby-like eyes.

"A Star Tribulation cultivator which can rival a Sea of Knowledge... aren't you stronger than Erick's master?".

Felicia smiled, since she reached the peak of the Star Tribulation realm, she was stronger than Tanner, but due to her circumstances she limited to be a secret guard for the sect and now she wasn't needed since Tanner reached the middle stage surpassing her.

Of course, Lilia's calculation was based in her spirit pressure, which is the result of the sum of her cultivation in all the paths, besides her body cultivation, her soul cultivation is quite normal, having reached about the Stellar Constellation in the soul path, it shouldn't be enough to make up for the gap between a Star Tribulation and a Sea of Knowledge.

In other words, the pair of mother and daughter in front of Aster, weren't worse than any of the girls, their potential was incredibly high.

Aster turned to see Erick and was a bit surprised that he didn't seem to care, that she was offering to be a soldier, which earned him a bitter smile from him.

"I don't think it's a bad idea, once she gets an idea, it's impossible to change her opinion, besides, it's better like this, at least I know you wouldn't use Mom as cannon fodder, and like this she can advance and... live more".

Aster was speechless, he didn't mind lending a hand to Felicia so that she could become a Mortal Transcended, but making a compromise was another completely separate matter, especially because he wasn't sure if they would be in this plane of existence five years later.

Felicia saw the black-haired youth doubting and she lovingly smiled as her long eyelashes fluttered.

"Could it be, that you desire an old lady like me, when you can court my daughter?".

"What kind of mother pushes her daughter into the lion's den", Tiana immediately gave an aggrieved gaze at her mother.

Aster didn't know whether he should laugh or cry, of course Felicia was joking, but it was still easy to know others saw him as a womanizer, not like he cared because it wasn't exactly a lie.

'Accept them Aster, those two have a high potential, it would be a waste to let them get stuck at such a low realm to die out of old age... I can't say too much, but you won't regret taking them under your flag'.

Rya suddenly stepped in for Felicia and Tiana, she made sure that all the other star maidens heard her voice.

Lilia always welcomed more talented women in the group as they could contribute to keep her beloved son safe, Aria had nothing against them and Sarina was the same, as for Alice although she pouted, ultimately, she also recognized Tiana was a good spar partner for her, and her mother on the other hand wouldn't be too far from Sarina in terms of battle prowess, once she learns more about her constitution.

"Ahem, having my friend's mother as servant doesn't sound good, but on the other hand if you come and stay with us, you'll eventually see some things I don't want others to know about, so if you want to join our group, you'll have to make a soul oath".

"If you two agree to that, I don't mind having an extra pair of weapons for when things get hairy, that's my only condition".

While they discovering his ability to refine spirit energy was an accident, they were bound to see some of the other "impossible" things he achieved, and Aster would never refrain himself while he was at his own house.

In fact, besides the true nature of annihilation and some other things which he would keep as aces up his sleeves, he decided to not hide his abnormal talent at the sect they will be going, he isn't the only monster that exists and now that he will be jumping in the bigger stage, he won't hide, only by doing that he will become the strongest.

"Also, won't your husband come?", asked Aster as he started preparing to create another build size spirit furnace, this time for Erick's mother.

Felicia softly snorted as she shook her head.

"Baron accepted his dreamed position as a vice leader of the Barbarian Heart sect, and he refused to come with us, he just doesn't want to deal with these two troublesome children", she said as she pointed at Tiana and Erick.

Aster nodded at Lilia and they all disappeared, this time both the refining process and the breakthrough would happen at the same place, some far away spot of the Red Heart planet.

Aster waved his hand and a large quantity of blue flames exploded out of his body, before taking the shape of a pagoda which immediately started attracting spirit energy of the surroundings.

Felicia's eyes glowed, as she saw the small red particles that started appearing, ironically, she had to use her all to suppress her dantian from absorbing it.

"You can go inside the pagoda, the flames won't hurt you, just absorb the energy you need, we'll take our distance and contain your phenomenon if needed", said Aster with Kana still hanging from his back.

Felicia nodded, but before she left to the pagoda, she giggled and approached Aster before whispering at him.

"By the way, both me and Tiana already know about your "intimate" relationship with some of the girls of the group, you need a dual cultivation technique because your "energy" floods from certain parts of their bodies~".

Aster bitterly smiled, yang is a type of spirit energy too, and he has put a lot of it inside his girls, which they have yet to refine.

"You'll be in charge of telling me the things other energy constitution owners might detect, so that I can counter them", said Aster giving Felicia her first task on the group.
