Chapter 15: Spirit Awakening (EDITED)
Chapter 15: Spirit Awakening (EDITED)
Asher closed his eyes and started to feel spirit essence flowing around the room. He felt a soothing sensation as the Spirit Essence Gathering formation started to envelop Spirit Essence in the center where he sat, making it easier for him to absorb it into his body.
No particular cultivation technique was required to awaken the Spirit, as all that matters is enough spirit essence. Individuals absorb the spirit essence to gather and build up enough force and pressure within them to break through into the next realm.
After awakening the Spirit, cultivators can use cultivation manuals based on their respective Spirit's type and elemental affinity; before that, cultivators train their bodies to peak, making an excellent foundation for hosting Spirit.
Asher remembered from the memories he gained that individuals would awaken their Spirit at the age of around 18.
The spirit essence is not always good for you. If your body can't handle it, it becomes more harmful. That is why awakening is done when their bodies mature and undergo a natural spirit enhancement process as they grow.
But it's different for all, as geniuses will sometimes be blessed with Spirit Essence Energy and awaken their Spirit in a natural way before age 18 without any required catalyst.
His twin sister, Alia Blake, was one of those geniuses, as she had awakened her Spirit before the age of 18, and Asher anticipated his first encounter with her.
Asher took a deep breath and tried to calm his nerves. He focused his mind and reached out with his consciousness.
He felt the beast's core energy. It was a powerful, swirling vortex of spirit essence energy waiting to be unleashed.
Asher guided the energy into his body. He took a deep breath as Spirit Essence flowed through his body, awakening his spiritual veins.
Soon, he could feel Spirit Essence gather around his Dantian. He focused all his attention on the energy, and as it gathered together, he could see the aura around him intensify until his body was bathed in a bright glow.
The orb pulsed brightly as more spirit essence was drawn into the formation. Asher soon felt the formation of his Dantian, and then it grew into a sphere. It started silvery-white but soon turned a dark metallic color, reflecting a bluish hue.
Asher started to absorb spirit essence energy into his Dantian. Within his Dantian, Spirit Essence began to consolidate, soon shaping into a black egg with intricate runes on its shells, and it kept growing more as Spirit Essence was fed to it.
Aria noticed the changes happening to Asher and couldn't help but smile. She felt happy seeing her son cultivate with no effort to awaken his Spirit. She was glad she had gotten her son a Rank 7 Star Beast Core instead of using the lower-tier Beast Cores that were available on the market to Awaken Spirit, as she knew that this Beast Core was the best opportunity for him.
Soon, Asher could feel the black egg within his Dantian stop growing. In a short while, Black Egg started to absorb spirit essence like a bottomless abyss as its aura grew stronger and stronger.
He could feel that the final step had started. The very next moment, the flow of spirit essence started to slow down as Black Egg grew still inside his Dantian. After a while, cracks appeared in the shell of the black egg, and he noticed an increase in the intensity of its dark hue.
As the cracks spread along the Black Egg's shell, pieces of its black eggshell flaked away and were merged into the surrounding spirit essence of his Dantian. A blast of spirit essence exploded from his Dantian and enveloped his entire body.
Asher felt his Dantian was filled with a presence; he could feel a being was born from his Dantian and was inside the egg.
The final shell pieces dissolved in his Dantian, revealing a Black Snake that glowed with intricate silver runes on its shining black scales. It gave off a powerful feeling with a hint of intelligence from its abyss-like black eyes.
The Spirit was a manifestation of the cultivator's soul, like a part of the body. When cultivators break through in the realm, their spirits level up with the cultivation base.
With the awakening, Asher felt a familiar connection to his Spirit; it was like an extension of himself, and the more he sensed the snake spirit, the more connected he felt to it.
After Asher opened his eyes, he glanced at Aria, who was smiling with excitement, congratulating him, "Honey, congratulations on breaking through to Spirit Foundation Realm; I'm so proud of you."
Aria smiled with sparkling purple eyes, happy that her son had awakened Spirit in one try without any side effects.
Asher replied with joy evident in his eyes, "Thank you, Mom. It's all because of the powerful catalyst you provided for a breakthrough."
Aria smiled; she was happy, hearing his praise, and said," Honey, let me check your Spirit, okay?"
Asher nodded. "Sure, mom."
Aria moved towards him; her curvaceous body swayed, and Asher couldn't help but take glances at her, enjoying the mature, sexy, and curvy figure of his mother.
Soon, Asher focused inside his Dantian, connecting with his Spirit and commanding with his thoughts. Before long, black smoke came out of his body and formed a majestic snake spirit that floated mid-air and stared at Aria.
Asher could feel his snake spirit, and he found this snake was full of mystery as it didn't leak any aura, and its body was covered in runic carvings.
Aria examined the black snake and felt shocked, as she had never seen a snake like this before.
'Titanoboa, Mythical Spirit...' She thought as she focused her spiritual sense on the black snake and checked Asher's Spirit.
After Aria finished checking his Spirit, he sensed his mom was quite surprised at his Spirit and asked, "Mom, did you find anything about my Spirit?"
Aria nodded with an amazed look and replied, "Honey, as you know, Titans are mighty. Your Spirit is a Titanoboa Snake, a Mythical Spirit... and it's a Titan Beast."
Asher heard this and couldn't help but feel excited when he heard that his Spirit was a Mythical Spirit, 'Oh! I didn't think I could awaken this Mythical Snake. It is so amazing and magnificent.'
