Chapter 67 Might Of The Dragon King
It took Aster a moment to process all the information his mother told him because many of these things were new to him, even if he read almost every book on the little library, he had access to, all those books were limited to knowledge from the people of this planet although Lilia did put some books that originated from her clan, she didn't want him to develop an inferiority complex in case he didn't have talent in more than one cultivation path but seeing his achievements so far that was not the case.
"I have a question mom; can a person use more than one cultivation manual at the same time?".
Lilia shook her head.
"No sweetie, the base of your inner universe will be created according to the guide of the manual you choose so it won't be compatible with any other manual, although you can cultivate the other paths that are not covered by your cultivation manual you won't be as capable as people that specialize in those paths".
Aster seemed a bit annoyed.
"To think that cultivation has that many shackles" he thought, Rya was meditating but she decided to tell him some things to avoid future problems.
"Don't worry, you have me so the attribute of your spiritual energy will be similar but far superior to the one that Drage bloodline or whatever could have given you, besides what your mother said is absolute for other people but that doesn't apply to you… the book that was created thanks to Aldebaran's evolution is not affected by any limits so you can learn the same manual your mother is practicing and when the twins finish their evolution a good surprise will be waiting for you ♥".
"In case your mother hesitates to give you the manual of her family you can use a bit of the golden energy that surrounds Hyperion to show her your attribute just be careful to use it against something that is not valuable".
Aster thanked Rya, although he was not depressed nor resented by not having the Drage bloodline he knew there will be a day where they will have to return to their family and it was going to be a pain in the ass to dealt with those elitist arrogant relatives, although Lilia hasn't told him many things about their background, he could already foresee the situation by the way she acted every time the bloodline subject came into discussion.
Aster nodded.
"Okay I don't have any more questions for now, so what was the gift you wanted to give me?".
Lilia was relieved because her son didn't look depressed for not having the Drage bloodline, so she smiled and pointed at the two books that were in front of her.
"Before that, let me explain a bit about the ranks for cultivation manuals and cultivation techniques, I have already told you what are the manuals and their purpose, as for the techniques their use is quite variated, movement, attacking, defending etc. there are various kinds of techniques but their ranks are the same that the manual ones:
*Mysterious
*Sky
*Stellar
*Immortal
"Each of the ranks is divided in three parts, low, medium and high, in the case of the manuals the difference between them lies in the number of celestial bodies one can condense in their inner universe and depending on the path that you focus, the manual can give you a special trait after reaching a certain point, a bigger reserve of spiritual energy or a better healing factor are some of the most useful effects.
"For the techniques the ranks mean different things like faster speed for movement, a tougher defense and so on, I have two options for you darling, the first manual is called "Evil eye of desolation", it focuses on the soul and energy path and the second option is called "Seven swords of transformation" which focuses on body and energy, both of them are manuals of immortal medium grade but they are on the pinnacle of their classification so they are on par with the ones in the high grade…".
Aster stopped his mother from saying anything else before he asked.
"Mom what is the manual you are practicing?".
Lilia was worried that her son asked that but she still answered.
"I'm practicing the manual that is inherited by the Drage family upper echelons, it's called "Might of the dragon king", it focuses on energy and body and is a manual of the… high immortal rank, but you shouldn't judge something just by its rank, this manual is specialized for those who have the characteristics of the Drage bloodline so if you don't have them, the result of using it will be not as good as the ones I proposed before".
This was something that worried Lilia, high grade immortal manuals were really rare so they were monopolized by the biggest forces, normally those who were not affiliated to any of them could at the best have a manual on the medium immortal rank and they were also not exactly common, the ones she offered to Aster were given to her by her two best friends as a parting gift.
Aster saw his mother's worried expression and he decided to do what Rya told him, although people can normally only start using their attribute once they reach the star formation realm, he could use the one that was radiated by Hyperion as there won't be any difference to the one, he will have once he advances to the star formation realm.
"Mom, let me show you something and then you can decide whether I practice the same manual as you or not, okay?".
"Mm?".
Lilia heard her son's proposition and she sighed.
"Fine, but promise mommy you won't be disappointed by my decision, ok?".
Aster nodded and then he stood up from the bed, he took out the wooden sword he used to practice swordsmanship but he first confirmed if it was something valuable or not.
"Will it be a problem if this wooden sword is destroyed?".
Lilia was curious about what her son was about to do, she shook her head and told him to go ahead and start.
Aster held the wooden sword in his left hand while putting his right hand in front of it, he concentrated for a couple of minutes before a small speck of golden light appeared on his hand, as soon as it appeared Lilia stood up from the bed and quickly rushed at her son's side, after she confirmed that he didn't seem to be in any danger, she let out a sigh of relief.
"My dear son, although mommy's heart is quite sturdy… too much strong emotions in one day is not healthy".
Aster smiled, even if he was the user this golden light was quite different to the one that the paragon body emitted, while tha latter was for protection the one he had in his hand right now was completely offensive to the point that if Aster wasn't controling it, it might had... dug a hole in the space that surrounded it.
"Well, I had to convince you to let me practice the same manual as you… besides I want you to overcome the fact that I don't have the Drage bloodline, as you can see, I'm doing really good without it".
This time Lilia agreed with him, whatever the attribute her son had it was not something that a normal person should be able to use, she decided to do a little test before taking her decision, she extended her hand and a little black flame appeared after a moment, she then turned towards Aster and spoke.
"This is the attribute inherited by the Drage "Destruction", I have limited the output to the earth origin realm, make that golden light clash against it, if the result fulfills my expectations, then I will give you the "Might of the dragon king" manual, but if it doesn't then you will listen to mommy's decision, okay?".
Aster nodded but he wasn't sure what will happen so just to be safe he told Lilia to distance a bit, they both took a few steps back and then the two energies slowly approached each other, once they clashed in the air the result made Lilia's eyes to widen by the surprise.
