The moment he did the wound, his system activated the grand formation making the entire lake be stirred up and rumble. Arthur felt the lake to be like a gigantic beast eyeing him in extreme vigilance.
"Just ignore it and continue," the golden dragon said as he saw and felt this change in the lake. "It's the remnant soul pieces of that Golam, it's still vengeful of what you did to it."
"It deserved it," Arthur shrugged before touching his hand towards every single organ floating over the lake surface around him. His energy was already stirred up to the maximum, yet he didn't stimulate the transformation and thus it kept escalating inside.
"Rumble!"
The more he touched the organs, the more the rumble sound getting stronger and the aura around him to change. Without knowing it, with the last organ being touched and attached to his hand, he lost his consciousness while the system controlled his body according to the golden dragon instructions.
His body floated peacefully inside the giant lake until he reached the middle, then he sank deeply inside the lake, until his body rested in the bottom.
For those watching from far, a gigantic dome appeared all of sudden accompanied by the sounds of rumbling. "Is this his doing?" Amelia was speechless and extremely worried, even thought to go there and check the place herself.
"Have some faith in him," yet the nearby Omar muttered while glancing again towards that dome and sighed. "This kid makes the old men like me ashamed."
"Hehehe, he is extraordinary," Amelia laughed before adding, "don't compare yourself with him. Now let's go and continue training," she then turned to steal another glance over the distance, "I hope you are ok, dear," she thought to herself as despite her smile and laugh, she was still dead worried about him.
Arthur was kept in this state for longer than he initially expected. He thought he would take a week yet in fact he stayed in the bottom of the lake for three.
Just before he was awakened, the system took his body away from the depth of the lake and made it land on the shore.
"Cough, cough, cough," he kept coughing and sneezing after he woke up for roughly an hour. "What the hell happened?" he asked yet when he just tried to stand up, a deep indentation occurred in the dirt around his hands and followed by a booming sound where his body was thrown to the air, violently hitting a couple of rocks and smashing them.
Yet he wasn't injured.
"Wow," he stood up while examining his body without caring anymore about that strange taste in his mouth or the bitter smell of the air entering his lungs. "My body…" he clenched both fists feeling the massive energy running through his veins.
"Congratulations, you are now having the right body of a dragonair," the golden dragon said before laughing, "despite spending over three weeks already in there, this time wasn't wasted at all."
"What?" Arthur was speechless and before he could add more, his system brought more good news.
"Ding! Your energy has broken through a certain threshold. Your embryonic form of a universe is now starting to grow. From now on you can start your path of cultivation."
"Wow, I can finally cultivate again?" he muttered before hurrying to close his eyes as he took regular deep breaths. "This feeling…" he paused while opening his eyes again and a wide smile appeared gradually over his face. "I miss this feeling, hahaha."
He clenched his fists again out of his excitation. "I can cultivate, I can cultivate again, hahaha," he laughed while looking at the sky of his garden, "wait for my return, I won't succumb to no one this time, not even heavens and its dirty machinations."
He promised before calming down his thoughts. When he closed his eyes he finally could detect a faint trace of the spiritual energy around. Despite being faint now, he knew this wasn't the issue of the world, but his.
"I need to start cultivating," he muttered as he knew the early steps were the most critical and any single mistake here would take months of effort to correct.
"Ding! Won't you go and check on your followers? Start training and testing?"
"Don't worry," he smiled, "I trust they are doing good by now. Plus I have enough time to spend on everything. But these moments are the most precious of all," he sat on the ground while closing up his eyes.
"Tina and Sara had already arrived outside," the golden dragon said.
"Ding! Do you want me to let them in?"
"No," he shook his head without opening his eyes, "just send someone from here with the instructions of staying guard there."
Arthur started to contemplate on the steps he should start in his new path of cultivation. "I'm now at the early stage of the cultivation, the foundation establishment stage," he muttered to himself before adding, "first thing is to create a dantian and start opening my meridians."
He inhaled and exhaled slowly and with regular rhythm while clearing up his mind of anything. "My cultivation path is the universe formation one. Such a rare and hard to develop path was something not common back in my world, yet luckily I have many info regarding it."
He revised all the info regarding this path before adding, "the best dantian is the multi dantians like star dantian or black hole dantian," he paused while thinking deeply about this.
"Ding! Your path of thoughts are correct, yet I would recommend you won't forget your true nature as a dragonair in this planning."
The words of his system were as usual golden to him making his thoughts paused before suddenly asking:
"What's the shape of the highest dragonair form?"
"You mean physically?" the golden dragon asked.
"No, on the soul level," he said before adding, "dragonairs have strong soul power like I could tell from your remarks. What is the shape of the soul in them when they advance to the highest ranks?"
