The rise of the pervert primordial-Chapter 287 Inside The Stellar Boundary
What Aster saw through the windows of the captain's cabin was a limitless red tunnel, which surrounded a smaller white tunnel, even without using spirit sense there was an obvious difference in the two tunnels besides the color of course.
The red tunnel was like a raging sea, if the spirit energy that floated in the outer space was chaotic, the one in the red part of the tunnel was on another level, Aster didn't doubt that this spaceship wouldn't last even one hour if they were to fall into that red current.
As for the white tunnel it was still not apt for anyone below the mortal transcending realm to circulate without a spaceship, but it was about the same level of the outer space, also judging by the runes that floated all over the place, it wasn't natural but manmade.
"That red tunnel is the border of the stellar boundary darling, the border stations are always positioned in the spot where the boundary is weak, you could say that is where it's were it was easier for us to build the white road, we are currently using to connect everything".
"Oh?", Aster found all this quite interesting, especially because judging by Eris and Mylene's expressions this was the first time they saw something like this.
'So, our "mortal plane" as they call it is really different from where they come', he concluded.
"How much time is it going to take us to reach the other side of this road, Mom?".
Lilia contemplated things for a couple of seconds before raising two of her pretty fingers. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
"To reach the next star cluster it would take about two hours".
Aster nodded, according to Erick the most expensive gate available at the star cluster next to Rodia, is the one that leads to the Veluri star cluster where the Barbarian Heart sect resides.
"Once we leave the Veluri star cluster mentioned by Erick, we will stop using the concealment formation".
A glint of approval flashed through Lilia's eyes, they weren't using the concealment spirit formation for their sake, but for those who they had some relation to, there were people in the Drage family who weren't happy with them after all.
So, while Aster wasn't afraid to face them, he didn't want to involve the family of the girls, nor Erick's sect into the fight, once they were out of reach from the star clusters where they had any sort of connection, then there would not be a reason to travel without leaving any traces.
In fact, doing it like that would be beneficial, because if someone ever tries to get back at him, then they would look in places where they would not find anything… if they survive enough to try anything.
After the first ten minutes, the white road stabilized enough for Kana to move without too much problems, although she felt a bit dizzy it wasn't to the point where she couldn't move anymore.
Aster patted Kana's shoulder making her unwillingly stood up from his lap, looking at her cute pouting, he couldn't help but laugh, but right now he had other things to do and the girls too.
Alice and Aria went directly to the training floor, Mylene went to the alchemy floor, Sarina dragged her daughter with her to the cultivation floor, at first Kana wanted to follow Aster, Camila and Eris to the rune mastering floor, with the excuse of learning runes too.
But Sarina nagged her, saying that she needed to focus in advancing to the star formation realm, to start training using the Griffon Magistral Wings manual left by Aurelian.
…
Aster and Camila followed Eris through the many floors, since they all could fly and this was only the second time they entered Lilia's spaceship, it wasn't tedious to fly instead of using the formations to instantly appear where they needed.
Soon they reached the floor assigned to rune mastering and spirit blacksmithing, then Aster and Camila took seat while Eris stood in front of them.
While Aster hasn't taken another lesson from Eris in a while, Camila has asked Eris a lot of things about runes, since that is her profession, that and she also wanted to understand the functions of the wolf tattoo in her back.
So right now, she had the same basics knowledge about divine runes as Aster.
"The first step to become a rune master is to specialize in one rune, the minimal required to be considered the most basic rune master is to know at least thirty incomplete runes and one divine rune".
"Reinforcement".
"Sharpening".
Surprisingly Aster and Camila's choices went in completely different directions, but they also complemented each other.
Aster chose reinforcement because annihilation combined with sword intent is already enough to sharpen even a wooden stick, what was giving him headaches was the durability of the equipment he creates.
As for Camila she was the other side of the coin, her attribute changed to metal after awakening her body constitution, so her body became sturdier, the problem is that while she hasn't condensed her natal treasure, she doesn't have a strong offense.
It wasn't a secret that Aster has a high interest in spirit blacksmithing, so he already offered all the girls to create some things for them, especially because now that he has a soul constitution, he has the best ink for spirit formations… his own blood.
Eris nodded, she took out two talismans in blank and a brush from her spatial ring, before drawing the divine rune for reinforcement and the incomplete rune for sharpening, that she knew.
"I'm not a spirit blacksmith, so I didn't focus in learning the divine rune for sharpening, so you'll have to familiarize with the incomplete rune, and experiment with it by yourself, I think that seeing someone using any kind of weapon intent will help you", she said as she handed Camila the talisman with the sharpening rune.
Camila nodded, although the rune Eris handed her was one, she already knew, Eris's one was on a completely different level, the strokes of her brush were refined and well defined, increasing the efficiency of the rune, it was like a beautiful piece of art, for a rune master at least.
Aster was luckier this time, Eris injected spirit energy into the talisman and the rune was projected in the air.
The figure was similar to a small triangular shield conformed by three patterns as borders and one as the core.
Eris then pointed at the pattern on the left before starting her explanation.
"The first pattern is "adjustment", I used it for my divine rune since I add it to all of my spirit formations, it helps to the item to perfectly fit to the user, you can see it on the bracelet that I created to "control" Mylene".
Aster looked at his wrist where the bracelet that controlled the necklace Mylene used was.
'Speaking of that, I should discuss with the girls whether this thing is still necessary', thought Aster, oblivious to the fact that Mylene now took pride in using that necklace.
Eris cleared her throat before continuing with the second pattern.
"The second pattern is "hardening", it multiplies the strength of the internal structure on whatever you engrave it, the ratio of hardening depends on your experience with the rune, I can currently multiply the original strength of any material in which I engrave this rune about fifty times, of course a reciprocal amount of spirit energy has to be injected for the effect to activate".
Camila which was focused on understanding the meaning behind the rune of sharpening drawn by Eris nearly fell from her seat. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
"F-Fifty times… I'm was considered one of the best rune masters in the Rodia star cluster and my limit was four times!", she exclaimed.
Fifty times might not sound too impressive, but it's exponential, so the increase in the strength of the material takes into account the previous improve, of course it requires a huge amount of soul energy to draw that pattern at the best, and currently Eris can't go past fifteen times.
Eris saw sparks literally shining in Camila's eyes and she felt nostalgic, although she doesn't consider herself a master or anything, she has a decent achievement in rune mastering, that motivation in Camila's eyes reminded her of her teenage years when her grandmother started teaching her.
"Ahem, the third pattern is "conduction", this one isn't optional, every spirit formation needs it as it is what allows us cultivators to inject our spirit energy into it".
Eris then took a moment before she pointed at the pattern in the core of the rune, according to her previous explanation, a rune can only be considered a divine rune if it has one internal pattern which unites at least three external ones.
"The internal pattern I choose as the core of my reinforcement divine rune is "regeneration", in my prime, as long as the damage to the thing I engraved this rune into, didn't go past fifty percent, it could self-repair by just absorbing spirit energy".
This time even Aster couldn't help but be surprised, normally when a treasure wears down after being used too much, a spirit blacksmith has to give a proper maintenance to it, in order to regain its best condition.
At the same time, this last patter was the one Aster interested in the most, his problem is that annihilation wears down his clothes and swords too fast even with his blood mixed into them.
'Although I still need to see if adding my soul energy to the mix will make annihilation completely recognize my creations as a part of me, this pattern is a must in my reinforcement divine rune', he thought.
And thus, Aster decided to focus in learning the regeneration pattern as his first step in the world of rune mastering.
