The rest of the day paled inparison with the emotional roller coaster they experienced in the past night and today''s morning, now that Alice reached the star formation, she needed to learn how to control her attribute so Lilia dragged her to another room to train, Aster originally wanted to rest but Alice wanted to hear Lilia''s lesson since she used to be such a high ranked cultivator so she also followed them which ultimately led him to do the same.


    "Shouldn''t you be taking care of your husband instead of cultivating for just one day", he thought while sitting o down on the training room.


    Once everyone was in the room Lilia started her lesson.


    "Every realm has its own focus, which tend to be rted to the name of the realm, in this case the star formation realm requires you to form the first star of your future inner universe, this star will also have some other important functions in the future but for now we will focus on the current importance of it".


    "When you reach the earth origin realm your soul idol turns into an orb looking brown thing, that is a "star nucleus", for you to reach the star formation realm you need to cover that nucleus with the attribute you have affinity with, in this case for me and Alice that will be "destruction, once you have managed to do it then you will automatically advance to the star formation realm".


    "That is also the reason as to why we are able to manipte our attribute more easily once we reach this realm, because we will have a reserve of it inside ourselves instead of having to gather it from the surrounds like before".


    Aster felt relieved listening to her words, right now the annihtion he has been using is of course his but it is not stored inside of him but it is the one that Hyperion radiates, that is why he has to use a lot of spirit energy to gather enough of it for an attack, that is a weakness that will be fixed once he forms his star.


    "Mom, ording to the manual now that I have formed my star, I can also start cultivating my body, right?", asked Alice.


    Lilia nodded.


    "Yes, the reason as to why we who cultivate energy first only start body cultivation after the earth origin realm is that you need to temte your body with your own element since other people might have the same affinity but their element is theirs and it will be harmful to train using it, the might of the dragon king manual we use indicates the method, which generally described consists in "bathing" on the destruction attribute, by doing so it will start integrating with your body which will reinforce it".


    "Of course, it is a gradual process, you might ask how are body or soul cultivators realms divided and it is actually the same division as energy cultivation since that was the first method discovered by humanity, the only difference is thest realm of each division, for example"


    "For body cultivators instead of soul manifestation, the peak of the mortal realms is called "Body solidification" as for soul cultivators it is called "Spirit opening", for the earth realms in the body path instead of the star tribtion their realm is called "Carnal disaster" as for the soul path it is "spirit trial", for the transcending realms body cultivators call their peak realm "Gate transcending".


    Lilia doubted for a moment before continuing.


    "As I told you we have only started discovering the mysteries of the soul recently so currently no one has understood how to surpass the spirit trial realm but technically the next peak realm for them is called "Soul king" … and finally the equal to the heavenly conqueror realm in body cultivation is the "Astral pce", as for soul cultivation it doesn''t exist yet".


    "You might ask why only the peak realm of each division has a different name and the answer to that is that only on the peak realms there are differences between the three paths, for energy cultivators you get the soul idol on the soul manifestation, for the body cultivators they get a huge increment in their strength and the toughness of their body in general, soul cultivators get an increment in their processing capacity which helps them toprehend things faster than others"


    Aster was baffled, every path had its own advantages.


    "Mom, is there someone who has reached the peak on more than one path?", he asked.


    "No, body cultivation was invented originally for those who didn''t have a strong dantian that could store spirit energy on an efficient way so instead they made the spirit energy circte through their whole bodies, those whose main path is body cultivation suffer a lot of inner wounds due to that but the heavens are fair, all those wounds will be cured once they reach the Gate transcending realm".


    "That is why people tend to prefer energy cultivation first before doing body cultivation, since by doing it this way you won''t suffer any damage because of the gap between your progress in both paths, however once you reach the peak of the transcending realms on any of the paths your progress on the other will suffer a huge slow down".


    "That was one of the reasons as to why many idiots on the Drage family were after me, since I''m the only one that have both red eyes and ck hair their supposition is that I might have the chance to be the first cultivator to reach transcendence on two paths".


    Aster internally smiled, "shame for them since you are already mine hehehe", he thought but then he realized something.


    "Wait a second mom… if no one has reached the peak in soul cultivation then doesn''t that make those who cultivate their soul weaker than others?"


    Lilia shook her head.


    "The known heavenly conquerors at most have reached what would be the genesis manifestation realm in terms of body cultivation, while astral pce cultivators are the same, they at most are in the genesis manifestation on terms of energy cultivation, the most epted theory is that reaching the peak of the transcending realms marks a fundamental change on cultivators so it bes harder to advance on other paths"


    "So, the bnce in power is the same since those who cultivate either energy/soul or body/soul are the also in what would be the genesis manifestation in soul terms, of course no one is stupid enough to cultivate on soul first knowing they would stagnate for sure at some point".


    "That makes sense", he said.


    Lilia smiled.


    "That being said for you to advance on body cultivation order:


    Skin


    Flesh


    Blood


    Organs


    Bones


    Marrow


    "Once you finish integrating your attribute on your marrow then you will reach the body solidification realm, the process is the same for all the stages but it requires different levels of concentration, on my experience you should be able to reach the marrow stage in more or less three years.


    "This will not hinder your progress on energy cultivation since your star will gather your element on its own, the speed of that depends on your talent for energy cultivation but since you have the red eye characteristic of the Drage I won''t worry about that and of course you can dedicate some time to do it manually to elerate the process".


    Lilia took a few steps back before saying.


    "I will do a demonstration to give you an idea of how to start the process of integrating your attribute with your skin".


    She closed her eyes and thinyer of dark mes covered her whole body before it started rotating around her as if it was trying to enter her skin pores, after a couple of seconds Lilia stopped the process and opened her eyes.


    "Everyone does it at his own rhythm, I could stand using the method I showed you and since you have the amplification from the Wolfstein you shouldn''t have any problems to use do it the same way".
