After Lilith left, Shadow sat down with her eyes closed.
She searched her memories for some time and came across numerous cultivation methods that would be suitable for Lilith.
Upon searching she found one which was not regularly used openly.
The Bewitching Fragrance Art was mainly used in female entertainment establishments to enhance their charm and attract male customers.
The females who use this method change the quality of their spirit energy with the help of the cultivation method and certain herbs.
It not only enhances the females pheromones but also when the female uses their spirit energy those near them will be sent into a dazed, lustful state or even fall in love them.
Of course this does not mean that female martial cultivators did not use this technique.
There were many stories of those who use this method to interrupt their enemies concentration during battle and even recruit followers to help with their goals.
Some were talented individuals with great beauty and were successful in their lifetime while other fell to misfortune from using it on the wrong person and provoking them.
Just like taboo and forbidden methods the cultivation method itself was a double edged sword if used incorrectly.
Some females were killed for influencing a large population under their control with the help of their spirit energy, others tried to use their spirit energy to charm an expert beyond their power or with a strong will and was killed for it or worse…
Others used the incorrect herbs to use with the method and harmed their own bodies in the process.
Thinking of the pros and cons of this technique Shadow decided on it, although Lilith had a playful side she was also smart enough not to abuse the power she had been given or provoke a powerful enemy.
She had survived in the forest for a long time and while she was strong she knew where her limits lied.
Upon deciding to use the Bewitching Fragrance Art she began to reorganise it to the lynx' body structure.
Time passed by peacefully and Shadows eyes finally opened with an excited glow.
"Let's test it out!" Shadow ran towards where Lilith had left and continued to run back towards the camp.
On the way she checked her storage bag around her neck which was full of different herbs and found a small pile of herbs.
Different herbs would have different effects and after effects on the enemy, if Lilith fought someone but did not wish to harm them then using a poisonous plant would not be beneficial both for herself and her enemy as she would have to absorb the herb into her body and combine it with her spirit energy.
From the range of herbs within her storage bag she decided upon using 10 year old violet jasmine.
Violet Jasmine is a popular spiritual herb, beloved not only because of its fragrance but also has numerous uses.
The fresh herbs are distilled to produce perfume and essential oil, the dried flowers lend color and scent to herbal teas.
While this herb has no effect towards promoting a martial artists cultivation it is a popular herb used by females to attract males and a common herb used in aphrodisiac based pills and fluids.
Some use it in their herbal baths too, the older age or higher quality of the herb promotes the herbs fragrance and effects.
It is a common herb so is it easy to find but also the after effects only include headaches and vomiting so it was a good choice to use and not harmful towards those who use it.
Arriving in front of the camp she spotted the large cat sitting on her own who turned her head.
Both of their eyes met and the lynx nodded towards the deer who nodded back in response.
Shadow spoke up finally after a short moment of silence. "This cultivating method I will be teaching you will be very different from those others have learnt up until now. So I have a few restrictions I would like to bring up with you before we proceed."
Lilith thought for a moment before nodding her head in approval, her eyes shone with excitement and showed a trace of impatience. "I will agree so long as it is not anything unreasonable."
"Very well… First will be that you do not attack others unless they attack first, if they intend to kill you then you may kill them. This will include the use of your spirit energy on the innocent or those we have no conflicts with." Shadow spoke again after a short pause. "Second is that you do not act without orders unless the lives of our clansmen are at risk. Acting before an order is given may disrupt our future plans or provoke an enemy we cannot yet handle."
"Seems reasonable." Lilith was smart enough to know the rules were set for certain reasons.
"Third and finally will be that you are banned from using your spirit energy on your own clansmen. Exceptions can be made during sparring but do not use your ability all of the time or you will neglect your fighting experience and become reliant on your ability. If you do so and encounter another female in combat or a male who can resist your ability then you have to rely on your own strength." Shadow gave a warning towards Lilith in a serious tone. "The name of the cultivation method I will be teaching you is called 'Bewitching Lynx Art', I hope you will work hard on it in the future."
Lilith's face turned serious and nodded her head again. "I will listen to your words."
