1085 Shouldn't Strength be the priority?
"What just happened here...?"
Astaria questioned with a shocked look on her face as she looked around and noticed the cracks on the ground, the large trees that had fallen, vines that were burst opened, and the tense air that made it hard to breathe.
Seeing how this heaven-like place was turned into... this... Astaria and the other wives seemed a bit disappointed, however, more than disappointed, they seemed shocked.
They had just left for 15 minutes, how did this happen in that short time!?
The wives then glanced at Nux who was usually the culprit behind most of the things, this time however, Nux just stood there with a wry smile on his face and,
"Trust me, I saw how everything happened and I am more shocked than you are." He replied.
The wives understood, then, they glanced at Vyriana, wanting answers.
"What are you wasting your time for? There were a few lost bugs, I just sent them away. It is nothing you all have to bother yourself with.
Now, as I said before, this place is suitable for you to master your Skills or Spells 4 times more efficiently than Yrniel, so use it to your advantage and work on your techniques."
Vyriana ordered.
The woman nodded, but then,
"Master," Astaria called out.
"You said that initially, you wanted to bring me here rather than the dimension you took me in but didn't do so because I wouldn't have agreed. Why is that? I don't see any problem here that could make me not want to be here."
Astaria craved strength. A place that could help her increase her strength, she had no reason to not be he-
"This place is called Veiled Eden. A place where most of the Cultivators below Divine Stage and even some Divine Stage Cultivators from the Order come to train. Honestly, if given an Option, most cultivators would want to spend all their time here till they become a Divine Stage Cultivator but of course, the Order doesn't give that option to anyone.
This place is perfect for the current you, however, there is one problem.
A problem that is currently like a blessing to you lot."
"Oh?" Astaria tilted her head, clearly interested in what her Master was about to reveal.
"The Time here Flows 25 times slower than in Yrniel."
Vyriana revealed.
"What...?"
"That is correct, unlike normal Dimensions, where the time Flow is usually faster than in Yrniel, this place is the direct opposite."
Vyriana then glanced at Astaria and with a small smile on her face, she continued,
"If you want to train under me properly, you needed at least 10 years and that would have been equal to 250 Yrniel years.
Would you have wanted that?"
"O-"
"No."
Before Astaria could even answer, Nux spoke up.
"My wife is not allowed to stay away from me for such a long time.
I am a needy husband."
He spoke as he walked towards Astaria and pulled her close to him.
Vyriana raised her eyebrow,
"She could have gotten much stronger than her current self, you know?"
"That doesn't matter."
This time, the one who spoke was Astaria.
Then placing her head on Nux's shoulder, a slight smile appeared on her face, and,
"I can't stay away from my husband for so long, I am a needy wife."
A wide smile appeared on Nux's face as he tightened his hug around Astaria, grasping the chance, Astaria melted in his arms and,
"That bitch."
Amaya, of course, didn't miss the chance to curse her. How dare she get close to her man?
Other wives had similar thoughts, they all were staring daggers at Astaria's back, their gazes were so intense that Astaria could literally feel their glares, however,
'Heh.'
She didn't care.
Rather, she pushed her breasts onto Nux's chest, getting even closer to him.
The women all clenched their fists.
Sensing the tension in the air, Vyriana tilted her head with a curious look on her face,
She had been staying with this lot for a while now, she knew their dynamics. Of course, she still wasn't used to it, she couldn't understand how these women would give everything in front of them to spend more time with another man.
Even if they called it 'love', wasn't it a little too much?
What's the point of 'love' if it takes away your freedom and interferes with you getting stronger? Wasn't being alone, free to move where you wish and pursue strength however you liked much better option?
And this wasn't just true for those women either,
That boy was the same as well.
With his absurd talent and abilities, he honestly didn't even need any guidance, Vyriana was sure that if this boy focused, he would become much stronger than he currently was, however, that head of his was filled with nothing but thoughts about his wives.
How foolish is that?
Why wouldn't you pursue Absolute Strength first?
Shouldn't that be your priority?
In the end, Vyriana just sighed.
Not being able to see this strangely frustrating scene in front of her anymore, she glanced at Nux and his wives and,
"Alright, as I said, don't waste any more time, since you are already here due to your circumstances, make use of it, and master your techniques.
By the time you leave, I want you to at least Master one of your techniques to Perfection State."
Vyriana spoke.
The women nodded in understanding, Nux, however, frowned in confusion and questioned.
"Lady Vyriana, didn't you say the last Stage of Mastery was not Perfection but Assimilation? Shouldn't we Master our techniques to Assimilation State?"
"That is not possible for the current you." Vyriana shook her head.
"Even though there is something inside your body that helps you use Laws, that is not your own strength, to be more precise, those are not your Laws but of something or someone else's,
Your current body isn't capable of understanding Laws,
And since the Assimilation State is similar to understanding Laws, your current body cannot reach that level yet,
You need to be at least a Saint Stage Cultivator for that."
"So that's it..."
Nux nodded as his eyes shone in realization.
He finally found answers to some of his questions.
