Thinking about yesterday s endeavors makes a smile bloom on my face, I have gained an ally and most importantly a path.
These things are monumental for my growth so what's left now is...
I empty my head and open my eyes, a lush and expansive garden filled with flowers everywhere your eyes land.
From roses to lilies to chrysanthemums and a bunch more flowers.
All of them in one place make for quite a view and the smell is not disappointing either.
I feast my eyes upon the flowers for 5 minutes before a hand touches my shoulder:
< it's almost ready, come>
Hearing her voice I turn my head and find her still there looking into my eyes.
I, of course, won't dodge her look but even stare back as we stayed like that for 1 minute.
Her red eyes and mine looked like planets attracting each other and I couldn't help but smile at this since I knew why.
She took my hand and started walking me through the garden saying that we can't be too late so I followed.
After a while, I found myself in a vast open space with no flowers and I even felt the air there was different.
I look at the huge formation that I recently learned about that was in the middle and was surprised at the amount of detail you had to put into each one.
Formations have different roles from defense to offense and support, if one is proficient enough then much more can be done with formations like...
She said with a wild grin that made her look like someone best ready to pounce on her pray.
And rightfully so, she is 2 meters tall and has a very lean body, she told me that she didn't like her body to look muscly so she compressed them to look much more feminine.
I, with my height being 178 cm, of course, am being towered over however I don't really care about that one.
So I, again clear my head and step into the circle in my designated spot, she does the same and we cut each other hands in a manner so a lot of blood will start flowing.
We then say an incantation and then blank.
When I woke up I was lifted off the ground only to find myself in a different world, vast mountains that are towering in the clouds and a humongous waterfall.
Next to it was a huge cherry tree that had its petals slightly on fire.
I muttered knowing that no one will hear me and then closed my eyes.
--------------------
1 week passed since that encounter and I am, again studying.
However, now that I am cultivating I am finding my memorization skills tremendously improving.
So now I have even more opportunities to learn and better myself.
I am currently below a rank 1 level in terms of strength.
Rank 1 is the peak of what one can achieve with just body training their whole life, of course for humans from my planet that alone is not enough for rank 1 so I am working hard.
----------------------
1 month later I find myself getting to rank 1 and find my body much more durable and lighter I feel like I can run forever.
And that is relatively correct since a rank 1 being has huge stamina regeneration capabilities, I still need sleep but not as much as before.
With rank 1 power I am able to concentrate better and have memory capabilities close to photographic.
