Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Seven days and nights was all the others needed before they got over their enlightenment. Arthur was just thinking to himself about how lucky he was before each one started to slowly open their eyes.

Just this simple move made the entire hall brim under bright lights. Their eyes looked lovelier than ever, while emitting defying myriad of lights.

"Congratulations," Arthur spoke in a warm tone expressing his current mood, "you all got enlightened."

"This…" Amera was the first to stand up from her seat. The moment she did so, a loud cracking sound came from her body, like her body stiffened and petrified from all this sitting. "What was that technique? I can feel myself stronger, much stronger than before…"

"You have a different kind of power," Arthur slowly explained, "what you are feeling is just normal. You got stronger indeed, all of you, but in return you might feel awkward. After all this is your first time obtaining such strength."

He knew what she wanted to say. The power inside her body made her feel stronger and a little weird. After all they never felt this kind of strength before.

Spiritual power was different from the powers they used to train in their entire lives. Despite it being a form of power, it still felt weird.

"So that means we are now going to train in another form of power?" Doaf also emitted the same cracking sound as he slowly stood up.

He was followed by everyone. Arthur calmly watched them and could ascertain that they got good results at this point.

Just in one week they managed to traverse the qi condensation stage and now at the body strengthening stage. It looked like a miracle, yet he knew if they were given time, they would eventually cross that border faster than others.

"You have to," Arthur nodded, "I train myself in both dragonair and cultivation. So you should do the same. At some point, when you have some confidence, you can try and merge the two together into a new form of energy."

His words landed as a shock over everyone. They all thought this was the end of his magic show, but who knew he still had more in his sleeves to shock them with.

"Do you mean our two forms of energy can evolve higher?" Sara asked in doubt yet Arthur's nod cleared all her confusion.

"This is what I call the golden pearl energy," he slowly stimulated his golden pearl energy. Right now his golden pearl energy reached a terrifying stage that looked like the size of a human head. His golden energy was something heaven defying, the seed which he planted long ago and depended entirely upon to reach this far.

Under the careful gazes of everyone, Arthur's body turned all golden in color. His vibe changed and a familiar terrifying aura emanated from him.

Everyone standing here accompanied Arthur for such a long time already. They were all familiar with his way of fighting. Just feeling that dreadful aura again made them realize everything.

As Arthur said, he trained into merging his both energies into one. They now believed him. And now they realized another shocking matter.

If they had such a chance, they would turn into the same heaven defying existence like Arthur. In their eyes, Arthur was such an insurmountable height, a peak they all looked at in admiration without being able to reach.

Yet from his words and his simple display just now, they all realized they finally got such a chance now. If they managed to train their cultivation and mage power and merged the two together, then creating miracles like Arthur wouldn't be a fantasy anymore.

"All you need to do is to train diligently under the two powers, then find a way yourselves to merge the two together," Arthur retracted his golden power before adding, "but to do so you need to make sure the two powers' levels are already close to each other. Of course that couldn't be done in just one day, but I can promise you that if you worked hard and sincerely trained, you can reach that level eventually."

Their faces beamed with excitement despite not saying a single word. From their eyes alone, Arthur knew they were determined to try all their best to do what he just suggested.

"As for what I said before," he didn't start all this discussion just for making them train and become cultivators, "each one of you can be considered a powerhouse in my sect. But giving you each a peak isn't practical. So after we return from this expedition to my world, you will train together and exchange notes. After that you can find similar people to your levels and ways of cultivation. Establishing the peaks from there won't be hard."

Now his words carried another weight and meaning. They all got what he wanted to do and right now they realized what he proposed earlier was the best approach.

Having a sect was much better than having an academy or thousands of academies. Even clans couldn't be compared to what Arthur wanted to do here.

"So our peaks will scout talents and train them?" Jude was smart enough to catch this hidden meaning from Arthur.

And Arthur nodded before saying in declaration:

"Our empire will depend on the sect to train all our people into cultivation and being strong mages. If you manage to merge the two powers together then you can also teach others how to do that. The peaks will only be led by people having the golden pearl energies in their bodies, and those who can do it later on can ascend higher in the ranks of the sect."

His words calmly drew the future of the empire and the sect. Arthur didn't know that at this moment, while he was speaking without any consideration for the future, his words here would mark the birth of a new age over the entire universe.

People would always remember this moment and this meeting as the legendary moment where their greatest god created the long road ahead of each one later on to train and get stronger and try to become a god like him.
