Chapter 15: Rise like a...
"Swallow this pill" Xiuying offered Esha a red-colored pill that was placed in a very small treasure box.
Esha was sitting on Xiuying's bed as she may have to take rest after taking the pill.
Karan was sitting on a chair. There was one more person who was present in the room. Karan had met the woman previously when he fucked every woman in the palace.
Xiuying had called Carlene because of her exceptional knowledge about bloodlines and physiques. She was sitting on Karan's lap while his arm was around her slim waist which amused Esha. After she came to the palace, she saw a lot of women acting very seductive towards him. Well, she knew the reason behind it.
"Okay" Esha quickly gulped the pill and closed her eyes.
She felt like something happening inside her body which greatly depleted her energy. She laid down on the bed resting her head on a pillow.
After half an hour later Esha opened her eyes. Her dazzling face was filled with energy.
"Now I should start." Carlene got up from Karan's lap and wore some nice glasses.
"You have bad eyesight?" Karan asked.
"Huh... no. I thought I'll look sexier." She said to Karan making him smile. He found her too cute.
"So Esha, how are you feeling?" Carlene questioned.
"Pretty hot. I feel like there's a fire burning inside me." Esha answered.
"Let's find more." Carlene raised her hand which started to emit some light and placed it on Esha's forehead.
Carlene stayed in that position for a minute much to Karan's and Esha's confusion. Xiuying was just standing there like she had experienced this a lot of times before.
"Oh! You have Phoenix bloodline and physique." Carlene stated. She made a very shocked face.
"What? Phoenix, seriously?" Xiuying commented. Just like Carlene, she was shocked as well.
Carlene nodded.
"Huh? Is it something amazing?" Karan asked seeing their reactions to Esha's powers. He went and sat beside Esha while holding her hands.
"Kind of. Those are very strong and amazing but that's not surprising." Xiuying answered.
"Then?" Karan said.
"Usually people from "Phoenix Clan" have Phoenix Bloodline as it comes from the parents. It's almost impossible to have it otherwise. Only a handful of people have it outside of the clan." Carlene explained. "Phoenix Physique comes exclusively with the said bloodline."
"Nothing to worry about then." Karan pulled Esha and kissed her on the cheek. "Do you know more about these, Carlene?"
"The bloodline gives you the power of phoenix, like producing phoenix fire. You can even turn into a phoenix when your body can handle it." Carlene answered. "While Phoenix Physique gives you abilities like regeneration and resurrection."
"At Grade I of the physique, she will able to revive after getting obliterated every 1000 days." Carlene continued.
Every physique is initially at Grade I and can be improved till Grade VI making its effects stronger. Though grade can't be manually improved, it can breakthrough in certain conditions.
"Esha, try to produce some fire with your hands," Xiuying said.
Esha raised her arm and focused. Just a second after, blue-colored flames appear on her hands.
"Holy fuck! I love superhero movies and now I can use superpowers. That's so cool." Esha was mesmerized by the flame. "I can feel like this fire will burn things only I want to burn too."
"That's the specialty of phoenix fire," Xiuying said as he brought a knife with her. "Let's check your regeneration. It will hurt. May I?"
"Huh? Yeah, sure." Esha stopped making fire and gave her arm to Xiuying. She increased her grip of hand which was holding Karan's hand.
Xiuying grabbed her arm and cut her wrists a little but still noticeable. Some blood started coming out of it.
"Ahhh...." Esha screamed a little because of pain. But suddenly blue flames appeared around the cut and fully healed it.
"She got more incredible power than me." Karan complimented Esha.
"Awww." Esha hugged her. "You got a FUCKING harem and I can't have some cool superpowers."
Karan gave a hard spank on her ass in response which made Esha giggle submissively.
"I plan to make it bigger so your powers will be useful." Esha rolled her eyes but smiled at him.
"Anyway let's move on." Xiuying bugged in. "Karan, since you wanted to join a sect. There's a sect known as Crescent Moon Sect. Its entrance test is going to be a week later so we have to prepare for it."
Karan and Esha nodded in agreement.
"And for Esha, as we discussed earlier I have sent someone who can replicate your appearance to Earth," Xiuying said.
After Esha chose to be with Karan, Xiuying advised having someone who can copy Esha's appearance on Earth. This way she can occasionally meet her mother without explaining anything to her.
Unlike Karan who had no relatives, Esha's absence from university can be problematic.
"Thank you, Xiuying." Esha thanked her as it lessened her burden to choose between the two people she loved the most.
"No problem." Xiuying said as she left with Carlene leaving Karan and Esha alone. Both talked about their powers to each other passionately and had fun.
Later on, Xiuying brought a couple of women with him to train Esha and Karan for a week. Even though they had some good powers they weren't raised in a dog-eat-dog world that they are going to part shortly. For that mental and physical training is necessary.
Esha trained to have more control over fire. Producing as much as necessary, not less, not more. Because of her regenerative ability, she also made to increase her resistance to pain.
Her wounds are going to get healed but the ability isn't going to stop her from experiencing pain when she's being hit. It was a lot to experience for a physically delicate girl like her but she's didn't lose her will.
Karan trained in the basics of lots of weapons. Being agile was very important for him because of his power to create weapons. He has to fight and focus on creating weapons to win.
After a week later, they were ready to go into the cultivation world.
