Chapter 735: Finally, Breakthrough.
While Yasenia practiced, quite a lot of time had passed. Therefore, the other girls who came to find her had gathered outside her cave.
Usually, because cultivation was a critical and delicate endeavor, there would be no way of communicating with the inside. Imagine being about to break through, but someone suddenly interrupts, making your energy and concentration falter and, therefore, heavily injuring yourself.
That was not ideal. However, if something important happened, being unable to communicate was also a significant inconvenience.
So, having a method to look inside without bothering the person cultivating was essential. That way, one would know if they could or could not disturb the person inside. Then, adding a few methods to increase the awareness toward the one cultivating that someone would interrupt, and every problem was mostly resolved.
An example of the awareness methods we mentioned would be something like allowing the aura of the person to gradually leak inside, making the cultivator feel them, not in a brusque manner.
At that moment, our girls were outside Yasenia's cultivation room, observing her movements. Evelyn was the last to arrive, and she had only been looking for a few minutes. She had had her thighs pressed together as she muttered with a red face. "That's too much! How can she look so tempting while practicing martial arts!?"
The other girls wanted to refute her, but they couldn't. After all, Yasenia had already calmed down the murderous aura, leaving behind her unparalleled allure. One of the maids chuckled. "Thankfully, young miss's dress can't really slip, or it would be impossible for her to dance as such without one of her breasts slipping out."
Alaia nodded. "All the clothes she has back at home have this feature. The last thing we want is for unworthy people to look at our Young Miss perfect body."
Andrea thought of something and added while laughing. "I mean, if they would see, it would happen while she pummels them. Other than brutally punching something, the dress slipping would've been impossible, after all."
The others laughed, and Kali commented. "I don't know if it would be worth it."
Evelyn said, completely serious. "It would. Yasenia's peerless-"
Bang!
Evelyn flew backward, and Cecile's cold voice reached her. "Kaleina is here. Be careful with what you say."
Evelyn blinked and stood up with a light push of her hands. "Wow! Cecile, have you been practicing? Such an elegant wing slap!"
Kaleina, coiled around Tatyana, asked. "Mama Tatyana, why did Mama Cecile hit Mama Evelyn?"
Tatyana commented. "It's banter, little one. Don't worry about it."
Valeria laughed and said directly into Tatyana's mind. 'The seniority is very convoluted. Why do you not tell Kaleina to call you grandma?'
Tatyana answered. 'I'm Little Treasure's wife, and the children we'll have together will call me Mama. I don't want Kaleina and those children who will not be birthed by me to call me grandma while my children call me mama. It's better to have a homogenous way of calling me.'
Valeria understood the logic. 'I see. You want to rectify the screwed family tree with the first generation.'
Tatyana laughed. 'Well, you could say it that way.'
Valeria lifted an eyebrow. 'What if one of the children wants to be with Yasenia?"
Tatyana shook her head. 'It won't happen even if they want to. Even in the case that our education fails and the child ends up loving Yasenia romantically, Little Treasure will not accept them in a romantic way. Just looking at how she treats Kaleina, I can guess how she will treat her children.'
Cecile refocused on Yasenia and asked. "Why can't she break through? Her motions' quality has already surpassed ours, and we all have entered the first realm." Cecile continued. "Moreover, the amount of energy her motions move is far higher than what we can. She should have entered the first realm a while ago.
Mirrory materialized and spoke while leaning on Angel's head as her lower body floated. "You are right; she should've entered the realm by now. But there is one last step she must realize for this realm. It's simple but hard to find once you've failed to remember it. But, if you focus on her movements, it is clear what she lacks."
Angel looked upward and asked with a cute look. "Can you tell me, please?"
Mirrory's eye twitched. 'Is it me, or is her cuteness starting to affect even me?'
With a cough, she said. "As long as you promise not to tell Yasenia. Remember that if you tell her, you will be doing more harm than good."
Angel saw the seriousness on Mirrory's face and nodded. The others present would also never damage Yasenia, so Mirrory spoke aloud with a serious tone.
"Yasenia has forgotten her tail once again."
Their eyes widened, and they looked at Yasenia's movements closely.
Although the tail followed behind her and never got in her way, it didn't participate actively in her motions.
Mirrory commented. "A body cultivation method is done with the entire body. Since a normal human-like being makes the motions shown in the scroll, they are all without tail movements. Therefore, Yasenia, who has focused on imitating the scroll to perfection while adding a few personal touches, is not using her tail."
Andrea couldn't help but laugh. "This silly dragoness. Why does she always forget her beautiful tail?"
The sound of something shattering appeared in Yasenia's mind, making her lips arch. 'Finally. I broke through.'
The dragoness stopped moving, and exhaustion washed all over her.
The reason her motions were increasingly strenuous was that her body was overfeeding itself with the incomplete routine.
Instead of gathering and then absorbing, Yasenia was constantly gathering, making it feel as if lead was entering her muscles instead of energy. The equivalent on the Spiritual Cultivation path would be absorbing energy with the meridians but never feeding it to the Dantian.
Eventually, the meridians would burst, as they couldn't carry more energy.
Of course, Yasenia was not in danger with the Body Cultivation technique because, although her body had no energy, she was a bona fide Unification Realm expert. At most, she would need to stop and dissipate the energy inside her muscles before resuming the routine.
The dragoness sunk her mind into the new sensation and explored her own body with her spiritual sense. She could see that, around the fibers of her muscles, streams of energy softly coiled.
As a tentative strike, she punched forward while looking inside herself. While her tendons stretched, the energy in her muscle fibers flowed, reinforcing the extending muscles and accelerating her punch.
BANG!
The sound of air bursting followed her punch, making the dragoness lift an eyebrow. 'Interesting.'
While Yasenia pondered, a massive pressure wave slammed on Yasenia from the ceiling, making her knees minutely bend for a second. 'Hm?'
Yasenia's face didn't change as she calmly looked upward.
On the ceiling of her room, a dark cloud had gathered.
The dragoness's eyes flickered with amusement as her lips arched. "Long time no see, Heavens."
**************************************************
Cecile: The clouds are stronger than mine
Yasenia: Are they?
Cecile: Yes.
Yasenia: I see
Cecile:
Yasenia: Cough. Is there anything wrong with that, sweetheart?
Cecile: No.
Author: Let's move on, shall we? I summon you!
Randomplant: Hello!
Angel: Hi-hi!
Randomplant:Seniors, I wanted to ask you something.
Randomplant: Yasenia already fused the natural treasure of the earth with her ring and made a contract with it. But if they find the treasure of water or wood and fuse it with the ring, does she have to make a contract with the new treasure, too, or would the contract with the ring be enough?
Tatayana: Well, you are wrong in one thing. Yasenia didn't make a contract with the Natural Treasure. It is just inside the ring. What she needs to do is fuse it with her ring, and for that, she needs to be stronger.
Tatyana: Right now, the Natural Treasure is doing a 1+1 situation, feeding the soil in Yasenia's ring. In the future, if she finds a water and wood one, she can also store them in her ring.
Tatyana: Only after she fuses them with her ring will it transform.
Randomplant: I see. So, right now, it is just a treasure that's lying around in her spatial ring.
Tatyana: For now, that's right.
Author: And that's all for today. Bye-bye!
