The rise of the pervert primordial

Chapter 697 - 697: Into the gate (part 3)

Valentina who would have been the one leading the girls from the sect under normal circumstances, but didn’t interfere because she wanted to witness Aster’s skills first hand, couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at black haired dragon youth’s last order.

‘Mmm, didn’t he ask the soul cultivators to be on guard because those things prey on soul energy?’, she wondered.

As a princess from the Fey, she is of course a soul cultivator and not an average one, so Valentina could tell that those while those ghosts would attack everyone, they will especially target soul cultivators.

And that being the case, one would normally think on making energy cultivators be on the vanguard, since energy suppresses soul in the relation of powers known by everyone.

In fact, at the other group which was led by Wade, they had started to set things straight by gathering together and releasing wide area energy attacks to fend off against the ghosts.

The scene of them panicking and rushing to where they came from, was caused by the sudden appearance of a swarm of unknown creatures, but now that they realized that even after being attacked, people weren’t dying, things were getting back to normal.

“Yang cultivators from the Pleasure Palace, spread in the four directions and use yang energy to create a perimeter, soul cultivators gather at the center and energy cultivators, blast those damn things away!”, Wade might be arrogant, but he is still an heir from a main branch of the Fey family, so he managed to bring order back to his group rather easily.

Or at least that’s what would have happened if things went as he expected, but contrary to what he thought, the yang energy of the male elders from the Pleasure Palace, not only didn’t scare away the ghosts, but they became fiercer all of a sudden.

What’s more, while the energy attacks used by the energy cultivators did force the ghosts back, they regrouped and then charged once again, the only difference is that their worn-out mantles had some burnt patches here and there.

Seeing the predicament in which the other group found itself in, a certain wild dragon princess couldn’t help but disdainfully laugh.

“Do they seriously think that the yang energy of some trash Genesis Manifestation guys that was accumulated through dual cultivation and is filled with disgusting impurities would produce the same result as Aster’s one which can easily “charm” a certain ice princess’s yin into submission with just a slight touch~”, she said, making Aria feel a vein bulge on her neck, while also causing quite a few of girls from the sect to blush.

Alice’s choice of words made them think on the situation in which yin and yang meet each other naturally, which is basically any intimate interaction between a man and a woman, even holding hands works, that being said, the most practical and efficient way is through dual cultivation, which is basically sexual intercourse.

“Hey, don’t just casually speak about the personal matters of others and you stop imagining weird things, you’ll soon notice it since we’ll be staying together for quite some time, Aster’s yang energy is strong enough to affect you without even a need for physical contact”, said Aria in a try to change the subject.

And she did succeed, since her words drew the attention of let alone the senior disciples but even the elders, they have had to deal with the guys that joined the Pleasure Palace after leaving the Myriad Occupation sect, and so they do know a thing or two about those that cultivate yang energy and they haven’t heard of anyone capable of doing what Aria said.

Which is normal, Aster’s yang was strong enough to even charm the princess from the Sun Graceful Luan race which is related to a legendary spirit beast, Natasha, not to mention that Aster basically nurtured Lilia’s body enough to help her break past the wall that prevented her from advancing in the body path, past the Genesis Manifestation realm.

If there is someone whose yang is strong enough to contend against Aster, it would have to come from an upper first tier force that focuses in dual cultivation, like the Yin Yang Paradise sect for example, and they would for sure not be even close to Aster’s range of age, since they would have to be a… Law Integration realm and that is only in terms of quantity.

For quality, one would need to search for someone in a sect that focuses in pure yang cultivation, meaning they had zero intimate contact with women for life, unless a girl with a yang body constitution miraculously appears, and the same conditions stand, Law Integration and way older than Aster, you would need to have those two hypothetical cultivators work together to match up against Aster’s yang energy, as of current, such is the might of the Paragon Body and his dragon lineage which have mixed and evolved together.

“Ahem, we can talk about me later ladies, we’ll form a square defensive formation, Tia and miss Felicia will be in charge of the north, Camila and Vivian take the east, Aria and miss Layla to the west, Nerissa and Agnes to the south, miss Valentina and Eris at the center, remember to only use condensed soul energy to attack those guys”, said Aster to then add.

“The elders will form teams of three and spread in the following order, elders from the Green Lotus will defend the northeast, elders from the Orange Lotus the southeast is yours, elders from the Purple Lotus and Yellow Anvil take the southwest, elders from the Black Sword and White Sword you’ll be in charge of the Northwest”.

“Senior disciples who can properly condense a soul weapon can follow in the same order”, his voice was firm but gentle, showing that while he was taking the lead, there was room to express any opinions or ask for clarifications.

For example, while most of the girls previously called immediately flew towards the positions they were given, Valentina remained behind for a moment.

“I more or less understand the distribution and I’m not trying to offend miss Eris here, but wouldn’t it be better for either Agnes or Layla to take the center alongside me?”, asked the purple lightning princess, to which Aster chuckled as he said.

“If we were focusing in 1v1 fights while using exclusively soul energy, perhaps Felicia, Agnes or miss Layla would be more apt to that role, however when it comes to dealing with multiple enemies with soul energy there is no one stronger than Eris among the present people”.

Valentina couldn’t help but be surprised at Aster’s affirmation, there is no main path soul cultivator among the elders, no in fact there is no main path soul cultivator even among the disciples, which means no one here is on the Transcending realms in the soul path, hence Valentina who is originally a peak Void Manipulation in her main path and a peak Spirit Trial soul cutivator, which is the equivalent of the Star Tribulation in the soul path, she is a princess from the Fey as well.

She could believe that Eris could surpass Agnes and Layla, since the three of them were all at the early stage of the Spirit Trial, but it she found it hard to accept that Eris was stronger than her using soul energy, which is like a secondary nature for the Fey princesses.

Seeing Valentina’s eyes burning with competitiveness, Aster inwardly bitterly smiled to his insides.

‘I guess she is not Agnes’s cousin for nothing, wanting to compete with a former Soul Queen in terms of soul energy manipulation… how cute’, he thought to then say.

“Eris is also a Rune Master and her formation will work the best if deployed at the center, I thought miss Valentina would be the only one able to fend off alone against all the ghosts that will aim to break through the center”.

“Mm, okay”, with a slight smile on her pretty face, Valentina soared into the sky where Eris was sitting cross-legged, her forest green soul energy had started to gather around her, which of course drew the attention of the incoming “leader ghosts” as Aster had decided to call them.

“Humph!”, Valentina softly snorted, soul energy in the form of purple electricity crackled around her body, that was of course not her attribute since Aster told them to fight exclusively with soul energy, but apparently her soul condensation took the form of purple lightning, which very much aligned with her tittle.

“Booom!”, the sky above the group from the Myriad Occupation sect, was suddenly engulfed by a bright purple light as purple lightnings made out of soul energy pierced the bodies of the wave of leader ghosts that were coming from above, sending them flying back into the darkness to never return.

Aster was able to tell whether those she attacked were coming back or not, as there would be traces of Valentina’s soul energy on them, and the ghosts that charged from the darkness didn’t have them, so they were another batch.

“Woah, what did you tell that serious and strict woman to fire her up like that?”, asked Mikaela who remained on the ground as she is not a soul cultivator, to which Aster shrugged as if to feign ignorance, since there were other people that waited for his indications, a large number of girls with sparkling eyes to be more accurate.

“What about us senior brother?”, asked the younger disciples, whose soul cultivation was too low to be able to properly condense soul energy to use in combat, they weren’t included in Aster’s deployment indications earlier, but they also wanted to participate.

The vast majority of disciples from the Lotus factions were studying alchemy, so they had relatively high soul cultivation, though that also meant their main energy paths were lower in average when compared to the girls from other peaks, especially the ones from the Battle Peak.

So, this was a rare occasion in which the disciples from the Black Sword, were mostly left in the bench since they put most of their focus in developing their main either energy or body paths, thus those energetic girls were looking at Aster like abandoned puppies, wanting him to give them a role to fulfill in the fight.

“Now, don’t look so downcast, soul cultivators are the stars of today’s show and that naturally includes you all, form groups of ten people and start gathering soul energy, but don’t use it yet”.

“Mm~”, the girls from the sect immediately formed groups and waited for their chance to shine, and now all the pieces were in their rightful place, also since now there were a lot more sources of soul energy actively working, the leader ghosts on the sides which hadn’t arrived yet, since the ones from above were closer, rushed at their targets, thus starting the all-out fight.

“What are you scheming now?”, asked Alexandra, she knows that the perverted dragon youth in front of her, never does something without a reason, so she felt curious about why he asked the girls who lacked the mastery in soul energy to fight against those ghosts to draw the attention of more ghosts, since that would only put a burden on those that were fighting.

And that wasn’t the only question in the air, Wade who as much as he was focused in dealing with the fire in his backyard, was also stealing a glance from time to time to Aster’s side, since he wanted to obtain hints on how to better deal with the situation, knowing full well that Aster had information he lacked, couldn’t help but curse.

“Are you kidding me, he only sent those that cultivate in the soul to fight against those things that eat soul energy, and it freaking worked, or is it because that woman’s soul energy has traces of lightning on it?”, he mumbled, ghosts and evil spirits are supposedly suppressed by yang, lightning, fire and light.

But out of all the previous, nothing had worked for him, he tried yang with the members from the Pleasure Palace, fire from the guys from the Blazeheart family, and lightning from the elders from the Bayer family, and while they did fend off against the ghosts, the only damage they dealt was to their mantles and chains, but they kept charging back at them.

The ghosts attacked by Valentina on the other hand, which accounted to a couple of dozens as of current didn’t return after being sent flying by her soul condensed lightning, so everything pointed at the difference being that the people on the other group were using soul energy.

‘Spirit energy does seem to damage them more, but soul energy scares them away, damn it that still doesn’t explain why yang worked for the Lord of the Twin Sword Valley and not for our side… right he is being sponsored by the damn Talis bastards, a yang type treasure perhaps’, concluded Wade to then say.

“Change of plans, those that had cultivated the soul imbue soul energy into the attacks of your teammates, let’s divide the tasks to accelerate the process!”, he ordered, so that some would focus on energy attacks and others in soul attacks, since that would be the best of both worlds in his mind.

Aster on the other hand saw the incoming waves of leader ghosts and smirked, to then say.

“North, east, west, south and center, leave one of those guys pass”, naturally such an order was bound to raise doubts among the elders, but since they were having a relatively easy time defending against the ghosts with soul condensed weapons, which was something they did under Aster’s indications, no one said anything.

Not to mention that the ones in charge of the respective main directions, didn’t doubt in the slightest, Valentina included, in any case they saw Aster scaring off hundreds of ghosts with his yang radiance not too long ago, even if they were leader ghosts, a total of five shouldn’t pose much of a problem for a monster like him.

And they were right, the moment those ten ghosts were given way, they pounced on the girls that were gathering soul energy as per Aster’s request, just for giant golden hands to smack them face first against the ground.

“Booom!”, the ghosts who were being restricted, tried to break away just to realize that no matter how much they struggled, the golden hands which were created by condensing soul energy, didn’t budge in the slightest.

“Now we are ready, each group surround one of those guys and attack them with your best try of soul condensation until they can’t absorb your soul energy but are affected by it instead”.

Aster’s words caused a moment of awkward silence, he was using the ghosts to help those girls improve their mastery over their soul energy.

“You really have some crazy ideas”, said the ligress girl, earning a smile from Aster.

“I’ll take that as a compliment”, he said, making the Mira softly growl, to then ignore him, unaware that Aster found her grumpy attitude cute.

“Big brother, can I try too~”, cutely asked Kana, unlike Sarina she is going for the soul path as her secondary one, and while her realm is too low for her to fight with soul energy, her mastery over soul energy is way higher than it would normally be, she is a natural in it, which is amusing considering that the signs her star had given before, indicate that the power she’ll gain is inclined towards the body, as the huge amount of vitality she radiated back then, suggested.

Well, the little girl is simply a genius who is loved by the world and speaking of that, how could Aster refuse those cute blue eyes of hers, when she is taking the initiative to train by herself.

“Of course, take a moment with each group of your big sisters to see the different methods they use to condense their soul energies and give it a try when you feel like it”, said Aster, to which Kana happily nodded.

“Mm~”, the little girl then turned into a green flash that joined the first of the five groups, speaking of enthusiastic “girls”, there was another one asking for permission to come out to play.

It was Aster’s black sword soul weapon, which has been nearly finished, there was around an eighth part of the blade missing only, in other words he was about to finish the first sword of the Soul Crushing Parade.

According to Rya, no one has ever managed to create more than six soul weapons through the manual of the Soul Crushing Parade, she didn’t mention what was the realm of the people that had reached the six weapon achievement, but she did mention that they are soul condensed weapons that unlike others, will grow alongside their owner.

And thus, not only creating the next one, but improving the already existing ones will also increase its difficulty with the time, anyway the incomplete black sword soul weapon which usually orbits Aster’s soul avatar, was asking him to come out of the mind space.

“Fine you can also go out to play, but don’t go too far”, said Aster as he manifested the incomplete sword which made a few turns around him as if to show its happiness, before shooting into the distance while radiating a fierce aura.

‘Apparently, it felt the angry at those ghosts since they were targeting your soul energy, so it wanted to cut them down’, said Rya, which made Aster chuckle.

“Oh well, it’s time to do my part too”, said Aster to then soar into the sky, since there were around fifty girls which hadn’t reached the level to use soul condensation, which is what was needed to scare away the leader ghosts, using soul energy, multiple waves of fifty leader ghosts were coming at them from each of the three directions.

It’s worth mentioning that from Aster’s group, there were a total of ten girls that were participating, then there were four groups of three elders and four groups of twelve disciples supporting them, for a total of 70 girls forming a perimeter, fighting around 300 leader ghosts in total per batch, of course there were monsters like Felicia who could easily punch away a dozen of ghosts with her black clawed cladded fists at the time, so besides those that actively looked to face a large number of ghosts at the time, at most the senior disciples had to deal with two ghosts at the same time.

Then there was Valentina who was taking on a whole wave of fifty ghosts with her discharges of soul condensed lightnings, in other words the situation was though a bit stretched, rather stable.

And that was making Wade go crazy, the opponent was dealing with waves three times what they had to dealt with and they seemed to be in a better situation than them, so now imagine his expression when Aster appeared next to Valentina and a black flash suddenly hit a total of fifty ghosts in a single go, sending them flying into the darkness to then fly towards Aster, stopping next to him to reveal its real appearance, a black claymore which was lacking the tip, it looked both ethereal but incredibly realistic at the same time.

Valentina, who scanned the black sword soul weapon for a second, couldn’t help but ask.

“Is that really a soul condensed weapon?”, Agnes is a “black sheep” among the Fey princesses who are normally only interested in subjects related to the soul, as she has interest in body refining despite not being a body cultivator and having a soul constitution.

But Valentina was a bit more on the “traditional” side, hence her interest in anything related to Aster’s soul path was on the same level as Agnes’s interest in the amazing physical strength Aster has shown to possess, while not being a body cultivator

In other words, the purple lightning princess’s eyes were sparkling at the sight of such a majestic example of soul condensation, earlier she was interested in Felicia’s clawed gauntlets, but this was in another level.

If she could, she would love to try and wield that black sword, it wasn’t greed of course, it was simply admiration to a slightly extreme level, a trait that some of the Fey princesses had.

“Yes, but it’s a special type of soul condensed weapon, if miss Valentina wants, I can teach you the method, though you will probably not be able to use it to this extent, it will for sure improve your soul condensed creations by two or maybe three times”, he said, to which Valentina practically immediately exclaimed.

“Yes, please!”, only after those words had left her mouth did, she realize that her answer was immediate and sounded a bit desperate, which made her pretty face redden.

‘Damn it cousin, was even my mind affected by your elixir, I can’t believe I’m acting so immature… but his soul condensation is amazing, why didn’t Agnes mention it before’, she swore in her heart.

All this while Aster enjoyed this amusing side of Valentina which he didn’t expect her to have, and since that was the case, she was… worth teasing.

“If you want to, you can wield it just a bit”, he said, which for Valentina was like the devil’s whispers.

‘Ughhhh that’s not fair!’, she exclaimed in her heart, that being said she extended her hand right away.

Surprisingly, the black sword soul weapon flew at Valentina’s hands without much resistance, which made Aster inwardly raise an eyebrow as was about to order it to do so.

‘Did it feel my intentions and acted before I gave the order, I guess that’s possible considering how much of my soul energy was used to create it and the connection between it and me’, thought Aster.

The previous while a certain dragon mother who was watching everything from within the mind space, while laying on the giant bed on top of Hyperion, resting her head on her palms while playfully swinging her legs, giggled.

‘We can’t miss such a good opportunity, can’t we, darling~’, she amusingly thought to herself, with a cunning smile on her pretty face, which made Rya who was taking her medicinal bath sigh.

‘Lewd dragons’, she mumbled.
