I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy

Chapter 52 Aura

?

Leo got back to his house and finally got some time to train. He had a busy week for the past few days and now he was ready to do what he had been trying to do for almost a month. He was finally ready to train his Aura.

He quickly got ready to start his training. He was going to hole himself up in his room until he at least detected aura. He first decided to wait on the Aura Gathering Pill and just try gathering aura by himself. 

He closed his eyes and focused his mind, attempting to sense the aura that surrounded him for a second time. He was eager to experience it for himself. Unlike magic, which was so natural to him, aura was different.

Magic was the power that let him harness the elements of nature. That was why it seemed like it was a part of nature. He felt it was more abundant in the forest and less abundant in the city. 

On the contrary, the books that taught him aura said that it was the energy that flowed through all living beings. It was the power that let a person harness their own power to the fullest capabilities.

When he sensed magic, he had seen colorful particles that represented the various elements of nature. However, the aura that he had sensed in Daphne and other Aura Knights was different. It was an energy stream that flowed around their entire body and originated from their dantian.

He tried to look for this mysterious energy once more. When he did, he could see the magic that surrounded him, but this magic was so bright that he couldn't see any aura. This was the main reason he wasn't able to train in aura. His affinity with magic was proving to be his downfall.

He took a deep breath and decided to take one of the Aura Gathering Pills. When he did, he suddenly realized why the pill was so effective. It didn't help in sensing aura. The pill itself had Aura hiding in it. When he took the pill, he immediately sensed a stream of aura flowing out from the pill and entering his body.

He quickly tried controlling the stream of aura. The minute he tried to force it into his dantian, the cool stream of aura suddenly changed its nature. It turned into a hot blazing force that started to burn his insides.

He quickly let go of control over the aura and the burning sensation stopped. He quickly decided to just keep the aura inside his body by circulating it around his body while thinking about what to do to the aura.

So instead of forcing the aura into his dantian, he just circulated the aura throughout his body, letting his muscles soak in the cool, pleasant sensation of the aura. As he did that, he slowly fell into a trance. He stopped trying to think about trying to control it and just let it flow through his body.

As he did that, he felt he was getting more and more attuned to the energy. As time passed, the flow of energy started to slow down. Eventually, he could feel that the aura had lost all of its previous wild nature.

He tried controlling it again and guided it into his dantian. This time, the aura listened to him and slowly entered his dantian. The aura congregated at the center and he could finally take a breath.

He let out a breath of air that was filled with stress and tension. He was very worried when he felt the burning sensation in his body, but his quick thinking saved him from too much pain.

He opened his eyes and saw that a lot of time had passed. When he had fallen into the trance, he had completely lost his sense of time. The sun had already started rising, which meant that he was training for almost 8 hours.

He got up to take a quick refresher. He walked around a little before sitting back on his bed. He had made a lot of progress in the 8 hours that he had trained. He had sensed aura, which was the first and most important step in training in aura. I think you should take a look at

After taking an hour-long break, he went back to training. During the break, he went outside to grab some food and saw Daphne. Since he saw her once, she wouldn't bother him for several hours. He quickly sat on the bed and grabbed another pill from his dimensional ring.

Before eating it, he tried sensing the aura again without the help of the pill. He was hoping that since he had aura in his body, it would be easier to sense it. He was wrong. When he tried sensing aura again, he was once again overpowered by the magic in the air.

He sighed and popped the pill into his mouth. It was the only way he could actually train in Aura for now, but at least it worked. He started circulating the aura around his body again, letting it soak into his muscles.

By the end of the day, he had gone through another pill. He only had two pills left. However, the progress he had made was enormous. He had reached the Peak-Stage of the Apprentice Aura Knight. The only thing left for him to do was form his first Aura Circle.

However, he wanted to be careful when doing this. He realized very quickly that the amount of aura he had in his body wasn't normal. He was only an Apprentice Aura Knight, but the amount of aura he had was the same as Daphne.

Daphne was a Middle-Stage 1st Circle Aura Knight. The difference between her and an Apprentice Aura Knight was supposed to be unsurmountable. However, he had taken 3 Aura Gathering Pills without forming his 1st Circle.

This meant that his body needed more aura to break through. He didn't want to start breaking through until he bought a few more Aura Gathering Pills and see if there were any better pills that might help him break through.

Before doing any of that, he wanted to test if the amount of aura also meant that he could do the same things that Daphne could do without having a circle.

The next day, he went to the Thousand Treasure Tower to answer all these questions he had. However, when he got there, he saw that there were a lot more people there than normal. The place was entirely packed.

He moved closer to the tower to see what the issue was. As he got closer to the crowd near the entrance, he saw what was different. There was a huge board above the entrance.

It was only a temporary board, but it was extravagantly decorated. On it, were a few dates. 

[Annual Treasure Auction]

[7th January, 8th January]

It was the information pertaining to an auction that was being held there. Normally, that wouldn't mean anything to Leo, but now he had enough money to buy something he could actually use there. He would also be able to experience an auction. He quickly went to the front to get more information. While he was trying to squeeze through, he saw a familiar figure.
