Chapter 17: Cultivating
As Asher was done checking out his weapon and its new ’ability’, he decided to let Virelass just continue floating beside him.
’Since I’ve settled everything on the system, my affinity and weapon. I should try cultivation next,’ Asher thought as he adjusted his sitting position. His legs crossed over each other with his forearm on his knees as he sat in a lotus position.
’Cultivation in this world is basically sensing the Astra in the air and drawing it into the Astra veins through the skin pores,’ Asher’s thoughts churned as he went over things on cultivation he had read in the library.
Taking a deep breath, Asher closed his eyes and allowed his senses to expand. He could already passively sense Astra in the air, but this time, he was actively doing it. Asher instantly controlled the Asters, drawing them to his skin pores. His Absolute Physique instantly seemed to come alive as Astra flowed into his body with frightening speed.
Asher could feel Astra flowing through his skin pores and directly flowing into his Astra veins.
The Spinal vein was the first to receive the Astra, then the Spinal vein redistributed the Astra to various veins: heart, brain, limbs, liver, kidneys, lungs, eyes, solar plexus, and palms.
Asher felt surreal and calm as each vein received Astra, each vein having a network of micro veins throughout the body, further enhancing the body and increasing the amount of Astra that flows into the Astra veins.
To break through in Life ranks, one has to expand the Astra veins’ capacity and strengthen the walls of their Astra veins.
In return, the Astra veins strengthen the entire body system while also increasing the capacity to hold more Astra.
Hours went by as Asher sat down without moving. Only the rhythm of his breathing process could be heard in the room as Astra flowed through him.
Suddenly, Asher felt his internal structure start to subtly adjust as his Astra veins seemed to contract and strengthen, then expanded gently and slowly.
