Arthur's playful comment hung in the air, filling the room with a light-hearted atmosphere.

Before Cora could muster a response, Aixen's footsteps approached Arthur, and the enigmatic figure questioned, "Did you succeed, Master?"

A grin played on Arthur's lips as he replied, "Yes, Aixen, I did." A twinkle of accomplishment danced in his eyes.

Aixen nodded, his expression a blend of pride and caution. "You still need to fuse with it fully as the integration with an Astral Soul is not yet complete."

"You're right," Arthur agreed.

With a composed demeanor, he moved to a clear space in the room and settled into a cross-legged position, his focus turning inward.

As Arthur entered a meditative state, a palpable tranquility enveloped him. His mind was a canvas of stillness, as his consciousness dived inwards.

Amidst the serenity, Arthur extended his consciousness to summon the Astral Soul of the Heavenly Sword.

The air itself seemed to hum with anticipation as a dazzling array of gold and purple light materialized above him, coalescing into the form of a majestic sword.

Cora's surprise was evident, her gasp escaping before she could restrain it.

Her eyes widened as she saw the Astral Soul. "The 9th Heaven's...," she murmured, her voice tinged with awe.

It was a sight she had never expected to witness – a mortal realm cultivator possessing an Astral Soul of such a lofty caliber.

Even she doesn't possess an Astral soul of the Ninth Level and she had only seen the Patriarch of some of the most powerful forces in the Upper Realms possess such an Astral Soul because of the insanely high requirement for their soul power.

Arthur's focused gaze remained on the manifestation before him, his connection with the Astral Soul unwavering.

He felt the energy radiating from it, a power that seemed to resonate with his very core.

As he continued to meditate, his purpose was clear – to refine and fully integrate with the Astral Soul.

The process was meticulous, a dance of energies that required both concentration and harmony.

Time seemed to disappear from Arthur's perception as he navigated the intricate currents of the astral realm within his consciousness.

He could sense the Astral Soul's essence intertwining with his own, forming a connection that transcended the boundaries of flesh and spirit.

Gradually, Arthur's perception expanded, enveloping the Astral Soul completely. He felt its power, its legacy, and its profound potential merging with his very being.

Each surge of energy seemed to whisper secrets of the cosmos, a symphony of knowledge that resonated with his soul.

He felt himself becoming one with the celestial concept of the sword, embracing its essence with open arms.

But just as Arthur was on the brink of ceasing his efforts, a brilliant radiance erupted from the Astral Soul.

Astral light cascaded down, bathing his form in its luminescence.

He felt an unfamiliar surge of power coursing through him, a current of energy that seemed to permeate his very cells.

Cora watched in fascination, her curiosity piqued by this unexpected turn of events.

The phenomenon before her eyes was different from the usual refining of Astral Soul.

'What's happening this time? My cultivation world common sense has been turned upside down multiple times already,' Cora lamented.

The astral light flowed into Arthur's body, its energy assimilating seamlessly with his Dao Creation Physique and his Devouring Physique.

The sensation was electrifying, as if his very essence was being reshaped by the cosmic energies.

In that moment, Arthur's awareness expanded to encompass his own physiology.

He felt the intricate fusion of energies as his Dao Creation Physique began to create a new facet within him.

It was an awe-inspiring realization – his physique was evolving, adapting to the infusion of the Heavenly Sword Astral Soul.

As the astral light gradually subsided, Arthur's form relaxed, and his breathing steadied.

His connection with the Astral Soul was complete, their essences now harmonized perfectly.

'Good,' he thought.

Arthur's eyes slowly opened revealing still calmness.

His body underwent a metamorphosis as the Dao Creation Physique responded to the influx of cosmic energy.

It was as if every cell, every fiber of his being, resonated with the essence of the Heavenly Sword Astral Soul.

Cora's wide eyes locked onto Arthur as a distinct aura began to envelop him. It was an aura that made it seem like his very presence was transformed into a razor-sharp blade.

The air itself seemed to quiver under this newfound intensity, a testament to the profound changes occurring within him.

As Arthur stood there, a living embodiment of sword-like power, Cora was rendered speechless.

She recognized the meaning of the transformation – Arthur had awakened a unique physique.

'Is it so easy to awaken a physique nowadays?'

The shock of this realization rippled through her, leaving her mind racing to comprehend the implications.

Yet, before she could even gather her thoughts, a radiant sword light burst forth from Arthur's form.

It soared upwards with breathtaking speed, cutting through the layers of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion as if it was transcending the very heavens themselves.

The light was a brilliant blend of gold and purple, a dazzling testament to the Astral Soul's newfound integration.

Cora's gaze followed the trajectory of the light, her astonishment growing exponentially.

As she saw this she knew what it meant.

'His physique is going to get an acknowledgement of the Heavenly Dao,' she felt envious, because of the heavenly blessings tha would follow such a manifestation.

Above, the heavens began to respond to the unprecedented phenomenon.

A resonance of energy echoed through the cosmos, accompanied by the resounding howl of a sword.

The sound seemed to transcend the secret realm, reverberating through its very fabric.

Arthur's senses were acutely attuned to this celestial symphony.

His eyes widened with recognition, for he knew what was transpiring – the awakening of a special physique carried with it the acknowledgment of the Grand Heavenly Dao itself.

As the aura of acknowledgement began to gather, Arthur's instincts kicked in.

He understood the implications of this celestial response all too well.

The Grand Heavenly Dao was his greatest adversary, a force that sought to unravel his existence and destroy his path.

Without hesitation, the four gems he possessed – representing time, space, soul, and fate – surged forth from within him.

In a display of swift precision, they formed a protective barrier that spanned the entire secret realm, cloaking it in an impenetrable shield.

The aura of acknowledgment that had been gathering was thwarted, its energy scattering and dissipating like mist in the wind.

The celestial resonance faltered, and the skies returned to their tranquil state.

As the gems settled back into Arthur's being, a sense of relief washed over him.

The potential danger had been averted, and the secret realm remained hidden from the prying eyes of the Grand Heavenly Dao.

Arthur exhaled deeply, his shoulders relaxing.

"That was too close. I would have gotten noticed before I was strong enough. I need to be more careful next time," he thought to himself.

"Master, you will need to learn to properly use the gems powers so that you can do certain things freely," said Aixen.

"You're right but tha will take time. I was already thinking of how I would be able to do this again, but this was a good wake up call. It's not all rainbows and sunshine for me, yet."

Cora at the side was a bit confused at their conversation and wanted to ask why but decided to refrain from poking her nose in this.

Arthur cast a glance at Cora, he understood her thoughts but choose to say nothing.
