Chapter 2 - the second form

Every sentient magical creature in this universe born with memories or specific information about themselves, what race are they, what abilities can they use, what best magic they possess an affinity to. The creatures will just know like it was some old memories inside their mind, they moreover know what bloodline they have, and the purity of their blood.

Magic is not all about spills and formations, magic is the act of understanding the Laws of this universe and using it for a specific purpose to benefit the user, it's hard to understand a Law or even feeling it, so some knowledgeable beings created scripts they call it 'Cultivation techniques', and set rules and phases for power and name it 'Cultivation', Cultivation techniques help the cultivator throughout his journey, it helps them to absorb the magical power of the universe, construct his body, mind, spirit, and at some phase, he will able to feel some laws fragment some call it 'Tao' it refers to the 'way', every Tao has a fragment of one specific law, The more your understanding of the Tao the easier going your beginning to understanding Laws. and the more advanced the cultivation techniques the more options it has.

Some brilliant cultivators obtained abundant wealth by just their understanding of the Tao, from creating skills and magic spells and selling it, but easier said than done, converting Tao into magic spells is a science in itself, that is why it's hard to find many people doing the same. But these skills and spells undoubtedly played a key rule in the hands of their users and their power took its shape and it changed people's lifestyle.

To start cultivation, every cultivator has to form a Core inside his heart to store magic power inside it, through the heart the core will have access to the body. the core play many rules, the first is a Recipient, it helps the cultivator absorb the magical essence of the universe, the second is to give him more access to his body, and the third will give access to his sea of consciousness if he has the ability to do so. The third rule is the most important and difficult to achieve because through it the cultivator will be called a Warrior or a Magic Warrior.

The first realm of cultivation is called "Core refinement", the cultivator has to absorb magic essence, convert it to a Core inside his heart, then refine his heart with the essence inside the core, then his blood, organs, bones, he can keep refining forever but if he wants to break to the next realm he has to absorb essence until his core is 'satiated', but that is if he wants to become "Warrior," if he wants to be a "Magic warrior" he has to refine his mind to form a sea of consciousness and take all the core to his sea of consciousness and he will let only a small fragment from the core inside the heart to be the link between the two. obviously, Magic warriors can typically use spells, formations, alchemy, and most craft skills. They have more access to "magic."

After a week of working his mind and power Amon succeeds in editing the spells, now he is observing the essence of the trees to construct his physical body. the physical body of dryads has no 'flesh' and no 'bones' nor there is blood, everything inside dryad is from nature and then their form will take the tree characteristics.

Amon has more than a hundred trees connected to him and now that he is absorbing their essence he gained what he desires for his plan, first, he starts forming his cells, tissues, subsequently his organic system this alone lasted more than a month, then the neck, the torso. Arms and hands, legs, and feet, and like that he adds every other part and the head was the last. after another month his body has the perfect shape, of course, he could do it in just a small amount of time but he wants a perfect body that is why he "contrast" it cell by cell.

Now under the white glowing tree standing a man, with long lustrous white hair, his sharp eyes were silver that they were like the very reflection of the sacred tree above him. a handsome face with a strong well-defined jaw, His height is 2 meters and 65 cm with moderate muscles that are not very heavily built but matching his height, he has too much charm and allure but that of a man, he appeared to be the embodiment of perfection.

"What a good feeling," Amon carefully inspected his graceful body with a satisfied smile. he has waited for this day since ever, to be able to feel like this is like a dream for him, "I can't stay away from the tree, maybe I have square kilometers as my moving zone, but it's okay, that's enough for me. for now, time to hunt some monsters to absorb ."

And so his first plan, His body is just a form constructed through essence, so he needs flesh, bones, and cells to make his body stronger so that he starts cultivation.

It did not take a long time for him to find his first prey, it was outside the illusion spell zone. a black Deer with golden dots around the neck area, with 2 meters tall and 1.5 meters height, with very big horns, it has a weird foot-steps that alow to jump from place to place very fast, it can ever jump at some trees.

"let's not talk about how fast the deer is, even if I manage to match his speed, I know I am not much for those big horns. then let us use a civilized way," the still naked Amon gently put his hand on the ground and a tree starts growing extremely fast until it reached three meters tall, The branches started to grow, some reaching the ground covered him completely, red apple-like fruits but small in size is starting to grow, emitting a very attractive smell.

" with this feast, the deer will take 'his' last breath with happiness, I am sure of that."

____________________________________________

The black deer smelt an ambrosial smell that took all his senses except smell, he traced the source of this smell until he arrived, but he was afraid if it is a trap, so the deer just watched from afar but the smell is too good for him to not be tempted, but suddenly trees start growing around the nice-smell tree and herd of his kind shows up out of nowhere, black deers waiting to eat the plants around the nice-smell tree, but it's like they are making way for him to eat with them, 'it must be safe for them to stay there, and it's hard to resist this smell' that's what the deer would say if he can speak, and it would be true, greed is the master of misfortunes, for the weak of course, so the deer did not shy away. he starts eating, and it was like an addiction the more he eats the more he wants more it was the best of what he tasted. until everything around him turned black, just like that his last moments were the most pleasant.

"I am very touched that you appreciated my invitation and enjoyed it," with a satisfied smile Amon shows himself from behind 'the nice-smell' tree and looked at the now-dead deer.

to know why the deer is now lying on the ground without a soul, you must recognize what is the two types of trees.

The 'nice-smell' tree is known as the Delicious death and as the name imply it has a very strong poison with a strong addictive smell and taste, the moment the prey tastes little of it he will add more and more. but it's easy to recognize this poison so people only use it to hunt, even so, most monsters can sense danger just like the black deer.

The second tree is the same with poison properties, but it has an illusion, it can show the victim a copy of himself beside it. When the deer was hesitant, the illusion made it believe it was a safe zone by adding the deers' herd, 'so since they are there without danger that was a safe zone' what the black deer though and so his sense of danger was cut off.

Amon extended his hand above the corpse of the deer, and the dusky skin entered his body through his hand, now the deer is just a flesh without skin, then the flesh, horns organs, bones, brain, nothing left.

He closed his eyes, to see what he has. His power allows him to Absorb but that not all how it works, the things that he absorbed will not go to his body but to a separated space and they will be in the form of elements, for example, the bones will be just a Liquid compound it will take the shape that Amon wants, and he can turn it into a weapon outside his body and give to someone if he wants. the same for the other elements but every element have its uses, inside or outside his body.

"I need the skin to make clothes for myself, and the horns to make a weapon, as for the rest I will use them to make my fleshy body," He sat on the ground and closed his eyes then his body started to change, his plant-made flesh starts mixing with the new flesh, the same with bones. even if his body is made from tree essence he still feels pain like any living being so it was a very painful process but compares to the flesh and bones that he will be gaining, it worth the pain.

It did not last even five hours, then after that, he sends everything from his space except the skin and the horns.

his second form lasted a day to "construct" and it was perfect, nothing changes from the outside but inside is another thing, now he has a heart from flesh and blood, his blood not the deer blood, bones, flesh, and all he lacked days ago.
