The rise of the pervert primordial

Chapter 561 Eris’s Soul Avatar & Mylene’s Aura (Part 2)

?

Aster who was previously listening to Mylene with utmost attention, as he dived into the world of "aura", suddenly frowned, which made Mylene ask.

"Is there something you didn't understand in particular?", she was genuinely worried, because, there were a lot of inconsistencies between the mortal planes she knows off, and this one in which the four Heavenly Quadrants are, so she thought that maybe something she said didn't make sense for Aster.

Naturally Aster didn't mean that, as he proceeded to explain the origin of the doubt that was assaulting his mind right now.

"I was wondering, I helped Alice when she awakened her aura, using a little trick… will that be detrimental to her in the future?", he asked.

Mylene saw Aster's genuinely worried expression and she couldn't help but softly laugh, from the outside, Aster looked like the perfect definition of "genius", to the point that others considered him a monster.

But those who were close to him, knew that he had his own troubles to deal with, which were mainly related to the "parade of beauties" that surrounded him, naturally these "troubles" weren't negative situations.

'Ah, I still remember the scheme number 3567, those idiots tried to set up a honey trap, using some man whore to "bewitch" me, and even studied all my preferences and tastes, just to be destroyed by me later', she thought.

Aster wasn't the man of her dreams, in fact she never imagined that she would get close to someone that had many partners, since the usual approach of those kind of guys were to try and add her, to their trophy collection, by any means needed.

But Aster was different, she is aware of the contest that the disciples of the battle peak make just to get a chance to approach him, if he wanted to a line of girls ready to jump in his arms, would form in a matter of minutes, and yet she is sure such a thing has never crossed his mind.

'I guess that's in part why all those girls are after him~', she amusedly thought, before saying.

"Alice already told me… no more accurately she bragged about how she manifested aura for the first time, don't worry it was an instinctive awakening, the only thing you did was guide her, not influence her, in fact her type of aura is related to the soul, while that isn't your case as far as I understand".

"Also, to actually influence someone to develop aura, there is a need to be showered with it, for a really long time in a safe environment and both parties have to consent to it, as I said, will, maters a lot when it comes to aura, if not imagine you might end up helping an enemy when attacking it with aura, or alchemists like my grandmother will produce a few half-baked aura users, among those who consume their pills and elixirs, elaborated using aura", she said as she giggled.

Aster bitterly smiled, he kind of jumped to conclusions, since Alice's well-being was at the stake, but now that he put more thought into it, Rya would have warned him if what he was doing was detrimental.

'Don't worry about that, she is a Star Maiden, even if you would have been influencing her, the result won't be detrimental, for someone who "roughs" her up, you were quite worried for a second there

~', jokingly said Rya, making Aster inwardly chuckle.

'Punishment for both of you, that horny sister of mine didn't tell me that she had already consulted with Mylene, and you didn't tell me I was playing with fire back then', answered Aster with a happy voice.

'Hey that's not fair!', exclaimed Rya, but her pleas were rejected and she was declared guilty and sentenced to pay with her body, of course this was all a mild play, since she will be delighted by the so called "punishment", she doesn't know it as of current though.

Leaving Rya who was pouting inside the mind space, aside, the lesson about aura continued, Mylene extended her hand which was still covered with aura, towards Aster.

"Here, try to feel my aura, you already have yours, and if your will is strong enough, then yours won't be affected by mine, this is the basic principle behind duels of aura", she said.

Aster nodded and then poked Mylene's hand with his index finger, the sensation around his hand was like being surrounded by a relatively thick haze, that was being moved by a strong breeze.

But then the density changed and the blur that was surrounding Mylene's hand, changed to a black and pink dim glow, now it felt as if he tried to move his hand through mud, it became relatively heavy.

"Aura has two levels of which I can speak right now, Haze and Glow, the first one symbolizes what would be the first half of the mortal realm, and the second one represents what starts at the Transcending realms as you call them, I'm currently only able to use up to the middle stage of Glow, this is the early stage by the way", said Mylene.

Aster's eyes glowed, that explains why Alice Dragon Aura had a pitch black mist form, but for him it was a faint burnt golden light, he directly jumped the first level of aura and went to the second one, which explained why the amount of murderous aura he needed to condense his Dragon Aura, was insanely high.

That also explained why the output was strong enough for him to literally beat the crap out of a Void Manipulation level spirit beast, back then, he was using something that genuinely belonged to the Transcending realms.

It was similar to intent in a sense, as it didn't depend on one's realm, if a regular mortal without any cultivation, managed to learn third level intent, said person could kill a Mortal Transcending realm cultivator, under the correct circumstances, according to Agnes, which is why, those who had learned it, were always stronger than their peers.

"We'll leave the combat lessons for later, I'll be joining you this time after all, so why spoil the fun~", happily said Mylene.

"For now, let me see your aura, normally the name of its property should have come to your mind when you first manifested it, but since Alice didn't know hers, I guess the same should apply to you", she added as she retrieved her aura into her body.

Aster nodded, luckily even though the amount of Dragon Aura he retained, was less than 5% of what he converted to use each time, that small percentage was permanent, if he used it, he just needed to wait for it to recover, just like his spirit energy.

Still, the amount of permanent Dragon Aura he had was barely enough for him to cover one of his hands, which again made sense, Alice could only cover her nails back then, when she first manifested her Dragon Aura.

He was only able to use so much because he was burning murderous aura in exchange for it, which reminded Aster that he needed to talk with the twins, after all the murderous aura he obtained was stored inside the black book that was in his dantian, where those two were trapped until they finished their evolution.

Mylene was dumbfounded, she already knew that Aster had jumped right to the Glow level, because he explained what his aura looked like, he was also at the early stage, so that's not what surprised.

She was surprised at the purity and density of his aura, it had a dark golden color, that made Aster's hand seemed to be covered in melted gold.

'His aura is flawless, even I had to train for a few years before achieving that, also I can't determine its property', she thought.

Unfortunately, she couldn't continue observing Aster's aura, because he ran out of it in less than twenty seconds, recovering from her awe, Mylene saw that Eris was about to finish preparing the nodes and she smiled.

"Your aura is amazing, we'll have fun discovering what it can do, but for now, let your "teacher" give you a practical example", she said as she stood up.

Eris approached them a few seconds later and then turned to see Aster before saying.

"Can you take out the yang chain link, I used back at the Silicon Forest?".

Aster nodded and then with a wave of his hand, the dazzling yellow chain link appeared on his hand a second later.

"Your turn", said Eris to Mylene who laughed, her whole body shone in a black and pink light, she then grabbed the yang chain link and her aura covered it, making it stay still where it was, as if it was frozen.

The temperature which had increased a lot a few seconds ago, returned to normal on the spot, the yang chain link was perfectly isolated by Mylene's aura, naturally she had to keep supplying aura for the effect to continue.

"Okay, keep it like that please", said Eris, back then she used the yang chain link as the core of some simple formations, but the runes that she engraved on the thing back then, had been erased due to the strong yang radiated by the chain link.

Since Mylene had to keep supplying aura for the next part, it was time for Eris to take over the lesson, which made Mylene softly snort as she focused on her role.

Eris softly laughed as she walked towards Aster before saying.

"Since you have seen Mylene's aura, it is only fair that you see my soul avatar, if my memory doesn't fail me, you said you already have one, but can't manifest it or actively made use of it, right?".

Aster nodded, unlike other soul cultivators below the Transcending realms, he already had a soul avatar which lived in the mind space, but he couldn't manifest it, nor use it in an active way as of current.

She smiled and then, a ten meter second "Eris", made out of dark green light appeared behind of her, just like with Agnes, whose soul avatar wore a… different outfit than her, Eris's one also had a different trait that the real Eris didn't, the second Eris was holding a giant wood brush with a tree design on it.

"You remember the formations, that were engraved on the wood layer that covered my genesis core, right?".

Aster nodded, how could he forget about it, it's the first time he heard of someone using a genesis core, to power up a formation, that's why that giant tree formation which she created, instantly killed the gorilla.

Eris smiled and then snapped her fingers, her soul avatar moved the brush towards the ground, and in a matter of seconds, a large scale formation appeared all over the area, it was a simple spirit gathering formation, but the scale was quite large and it only took a few seconds for it to appear.

Aster's eyes glowed, what Eris just did was equivalent to what her cube necklace could do, she basically insta-created a formation, as if she had it saved and just had to deploy it.

The second Eris then entered Eris's body, and now with a simple gaze or even without any gesture, formations appeared all over the place, creating the illusion that Eris could spawn formations without doing anything.

"This is an advanced level of multitask and parallel thinking, only possible for those who have gained high control over their soul avatars, and a perfect understanding of the runes used in the formations that one desires to create", said Eris.

Back when she fought against the gorilla, she used her genesis core as canvas to, by creating those solid wood covers, and then just used her soul avatar to deploy strong formations, continuously one after another.

But that's not what she was going to do right now, she once again manifested her soul avatar and also took out her own engraving brush, then under Aster's surprised eyes, both Eris started working on the yang chain link at the same time in perfect coordination, making complicated runes appear on the yang chain link.

She was using divine runes, this time, Aster knew that to engrave a single divine rune on a material, it took way more time than to do so with an incomplete rune, but Eris was engraving them at a visible speed, it was amazing.

Not only that, the runes actually started absorbing Mylene's aura, as the formation that Eris was engraving on the yang chain link, took form.

Eris's ability was amazing, she could deploy many simple formations at the same time, without any delay, or use a really strong one, in a little amount of time, compared to what it would take others.

That being said, it wasn't as simple as just being fast, formations would crumble apart if they were rushed, with quite ease, so there was a need for an incredible amount of dexterity, to deploy them at a fast speed, now imagine what how hard it was for Eris, to engrave runes and also order her soul avatar to do the same, while coordinating with it.

The smallest mistake could be catastrophic, and this is where Mylene's aura came in handy, the yang chain link was completely staying static, so there was not even the slightest alteration coming from the thing.

Strangely, their specialties complemented each other perfectly, and their teamwork was equally as good.

"Maybe because all the times we fought each other, but we actually know a lot about the other's abilities", said Mylene with an amused expression.

"Yeah, maybe when I recover my Soul Queen cultivation, we can try to make a special pill using a formation instead of a cauldron", added Eris.

With those two working hand to hand, the yang chain link was soon covered in runes, and with a last touch, Eris finally stopped engraving.

"That's it, retrieve your aura and let's see if we succeeded or not", said Eris.

Mylene nodded and the leftover aura that was covering the yang chain link disappeared, but there was no heat or radiation coming from it, in other words they succeeded.

"Phew… that was more tiring than it should have", said Eris as she let out a sigh of relief.

Mylene grabbed the yang chain link and then floated until she was at one hundred or so meters away from the ground, that was a few meters taller than the clone of Nim.

She placed it in a centrical position, and the chain link remained there, Mylene descended and then nodded at Eris who snapped her fingers.

The formations on the stones lit up and then started releasing small thin yellow particles, that were guided towards the yang chain link, who then transformed it into a dim light, spreading the nurturing property of the yang in the nearby area.

"Let's have a small rest to catch our breath, and then we'll continue with the yin part of the formation", said Eris as she sat on the grass.
