While Fang Zhou was following Ling Xiaoyue in cultivation, Aya also picked up her sword again, stepping back onto her path of training.
Since she decided to follow Fang Zhou to the new world, Aya refused to settle as a logistic officer or a bystander who can't offer any help; she needed to have her own abilities to assist Fang Zhou.
After all, the dangers of the new world are evident; an additional strength is an additional guarantee.
When Aya was alive, she was in the Golden Core Realm, transformed into a Heroic Spirit after death, unable to advance further even if she regained all her strength.
However, her body had been tempered into a glazed golden body by the Fire of Hope, presenting a possibility for progress.
The main issue lay in her Divine Soul; while the term Heroic Spirit sounds pleasant, it's essentially a ghost, unable to progress further unless one shifts to cultivating as a ghost god.
