Kali saw how excited Yasenia was and laughed. "We are finally getting Body Cultivation Techniques."
Evelyn smiled. "Who wants to go first?"
Tatyana got thoughtful and smiled. "I'll go first~. I want to give Little Treasure a surprise. Also, I'll need one [Library Ticket] to search through. We have 40 of them in total, so I can tell you if there are any good things we must use them for."
Yasenia blinked. "A surprise?"
Tatyana laughed and stepped forward.
"Welcome, you can redeem One [Diamond Key], one [Golden Key], and one [Library Ticket]."
The dragoness blinked many times, and finally, something clicked. Her eyes widened. "No way, that key."
Tatyana smirked. "That's right. It is Sarah's key."
Yasenia was confused. "But how, didn't she…"
Tatyana finished her sentence. "Escape? How can I let go of her when you asked me previously that you didn't want to lose any more treasures?"
The girls felt their dresses fluttering, and they looked behind Yasenia's tail, only to see a blur because of the speedy tail-wages. Looking at the dragoness's face, the excited and loving face was a sight that made them gulp. She looked terrific.
Tatyana coughed, needing a few seconds to control her impulses to smash Yasenia face-first on a bed and pound her from behind like an animal until she was hoarse. 'Control yourself, Tatyana, you can make her cry all you want later! Cough, I mean, you can pound her all you want later!... Not! I want to say that I can pamper her all I want later! That's right. I just want to pamper her. Why would anybody else think that the top priority in my head is to recreate a fountain of sexual bodily fluids with Yasenia?'
Mirrory spoke with a speechless tone. "Tatyana, control your urges. You are leaking."
Tatyana blinked and looked inside her underwear with her spiritual sense. 'Oh my… I'm gushing. Yasenium withdrawal is severe. I'll need to replenish later.'
Evelyn commented. "The fact that her face didn't change at all, even though I could see a few drops going down her thighs, is quite impressive."
Angel chuckled. "It looked as if she was peeing herself!"
Andrea looked at Yasenia and muttered. "Love, will you be alright?"
Yasenia smiled widely and answered confidently. "No!"
Cecile muttered. "She is scaraoused."
All the girls choked with their saliva.
Using her energy, Tatyana cleaned herself and relaxed her horniness.
Without any delay, Tatyana first spent the [Library Tickets] and looked at the Bronze Level rewards.
The rewards she could redeem with it were peak-level Magic rank and below.
She scrolled through, using her powerful mind and soul to memorize every single item in the list, and fifteen seconds later, she had memorized the 12,322 items in the list.
She closed her eyes while summoning a jade slip and poured her thoughts inside. After that, she threw it toward our girls.
To pour thoughts inside a jade slip, you must know that thing perfectly, so unless you memorized it, it wasn't possible to imprint your thoughts on it.
Of course, jade slips that were "written" without the need to be memorized existed and were common. However, it took longer.
"There you have the catalog. Mirrory, Valeria, look through it and tell me if you see anything that's interesting."
The seniors and girls looked through and began discussing between them.
After a while, they concluded. Tatyana spoke. "It seems that we will need to pick these ones."
Andrea spoke. "So, all ten [Energy Purity Seeds], five, one male and four females, [Soil Mineral Beetle Eggs], five, one male and four females, [Spore Dancing Butterfly Eggs]. Then… two of each of the basic elemental flowers? [Earth Elemental Flower], [Wood Elemental Flower], [Metal Elemental Flower], [Fire Elemental Flower], and [Water Elemental Flower]. And for the final ten, we can take profession-related stuff. Talisman, Tattoo, Alchemy, Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Formations, etc."
Evelyn asked Valeria. "Are we sure about the flowers?"
Valeria nodded with a smile. "While they are much worse than anything we have right now, their potential is actually tremendous for this World's level. They can be good to plant in the sect training grounds and let them grow. In the future, about 3 to 5 thousand years later, they will become potent flowers that will make those training grounds something similar to the Treasure Land we just stayed in."
Valeria added. "Furthermore, if we give them the right conditions, their seeds can evolve into other elements. If the Sect Masters after Yasenia take care of them in the Astral Sky Sect, in just 10 thousand years, just with these flowers, the sect will become the most influential in the entire world."
The girls felt that those time-frames were too long for them to even care about, but they trusted Valeria, so they nodded and agreed.
Yasenia asked. "What about the other three treasures?"
Tatyana smiled. "Those are for your ring, love. The plants growing there will all benefit from those three. Moreover, they have good growth potential similar to the elemental plants."
Angel, feeling a bit greedy, asked. "Why don't we also take the flowers?"
A slight chuckle escaped Mirrory's lips. "While they are okay, and in Yasenia's ring, they would've bloomed in a hundred years or less, we have much better flowers than those. Leaving something behind accumulates good karma, so might as well do it."
Yasenia asked. "Can't I grow them in my ring for a while and then plant them outside? That way, the 10,000 years will reduce considerably, no?"
Valeria shook her head. "Your ring is too good, Yasenia. For better or worse, that ring is strong enough to make the flowers of this world "pampered," and they would die if planted outside after tasting the environment in your ring."
With no more doubts, the forty [Library Tickets] were dealt with. The reason they didn't cash them out on their first try was in case the items shown changed for each person.
They also tried giving Tatyana a library ticket while she chose, and they managed to pass it on. So, just in case, Tatyana used twenty of the forty to take the energy seeds and elemental plants.
After that, she used the [Golden Key].
Once outside, the lights in the ceiling bloomed like a thousand Suns.
The lights would bloom once someone talented enough to cultivate them or at least someone worthy enough to possess them appeared.
The girls couldn't help but compare Yu Lei's reaction and Tatyana's, which was, quite literally, the difference between night and day.
Tatyana chuckled. "The only ones that didn't light up are those related to Yang elements, like Sun or fire."
Tatyana looked at how things worked, and she nodded. "I see. Listen, girls. The Golden Key has two kinds of uses. The first use is to call upon the lights in the ceiling using the cultivator's talents, bloodline, etc. So, don't fight against the energy that pours into you when holding the Key. Then, you can also cash it out for an item on a list, similar to the [Library Ticket]. However, the cultivation techniques, skills, and items on the list are all between middle- and low-level Heaven rank, while the ones in the ceiling are peak-level Heaven-Ranked and below."
The girls were confused. Andrea asked. "So, where does my technique come from? All the information pointed to it coming from the [Library of Trials]."
Tatyana laughed. "Patience, Andrea. Don't we have another Key of a higher level?"
Andrea realized. "Right, the [Diamond key]."
Tatyana looked through the Body Cultivation techniques and did the same, creating a list that she threw to the girls.
They similarly all looked together, but since they only had a single [Golden Key], it took a while.
After discussing it together, the seniors came to the same conclusion.
Mirrory said. "I mean, other than this one, there is the [Life Siphon Fleshy Body Technique] and the [Secret Vision Body Technique]. However, I feel like this one is best."
Valeria agreed. "I've never seen something like this, after all."
Tatyana nodded. "Same. It's my first time seeing something like this of this level."
Mirrory blinked. "Really? Well, it's very rare. I can't deny that."
The girls had their eyebrows constantly twitching and their lips quivering.
Evelyn spoke with gritted teeth. "Hey, can you stop teasing us and say the name!? You've been avoiding it for five minutes!"
The three seniors laughed, and Tatyana called to one particular light in the ceiling. "I choose the attributeless, low-level Heaven-ranked, [Martial Emperor Body Technique]."
That light flashed through the ceiling and landed in front of Tatyana.
A golden orb appeared before herself, and she picked a scroll with the images of a man wielding several weapons and facing an army.
The girls were surprised.
Cecile asked, confused. "Low-level Heaven-ranked? Why did you choose that one, Tatyana?"
Tatyana smiled, looking quite happy with it. "It has the potential to evolve and be perfected. Cultivation techniques have a rank depending on how far they can carry you without anything else."
Tatyana explained. "For example, Earth-rank techniques can increase someone's strength to the peak of the mortal realms, and a heaven-ranked one can aid the cultivator in the initial levels of the Transcendence realm, and a Transcendence realm cultivation technique can carry you to the peak, and very rarely, beyond."
The girls nodded in understanding, and Tatyana continued. "However, with enough knowledge and understanding of the Heaven's Path, one can perfect cultivation techniques. Imagine a normal sword; with enough knowledge, materials, and skill, you can reforge a better sword out of the old one. Naturally, if the initial materials are bad, no matter how much you perfect it, it won't be able to become a legendary sword. However, if the base materials are good, it has the possibility to."
Tatyana looked at the golden scroll in her hands. "The [Martial Emperor Body Technique] is similar. While its current level is low, it has an excellent foundation, and it can be upgraded even past the Transcendence Realm if done correctly. So, it is, in truth, one of the best techniques between the ones presented in this Library."
Evelyn looked at the scroll in Tatyana's hand and asked. "You can perfect that one?"
The Death Empress nodded confidently. Then, she smiled mischievously. "Even if I had problems, don't we have an antique with us that can?"
Mirrory rolled her beautiful green eyes. "Keep talking, old woman."
Tatyana laughed.
Then, without any delays, Tatyana used the [Diamond Key].
The 21 different colored stars in the middle of the ceiling burst with bright lights, inundating the entire room with multicolored lights and coming down in a spiral pattern.
The light show was spectacular.
Finally, before Tatyana, twenty-one orbs landed in three rows in an orderly fashion.
The rows were not equal in number, as the first and closest row had five orbs, the following one had nine orbs, and the final row had seven of them. One of the orbs on the last row was empty.
Tatyana's eyebrows rose, and she smiled. "Well, here is the answer to our questions."
The girls looked at Yasenia, and they saw her looking with wide open eyes and literal drool dripping from her lips.
It was a 'So many treasures' look that anybody could understand.
Evelyn asked incredulously. "Don't tell me, all 20 orbs have a Transcendence Ranked technique?"
Tatyana smiled and laughed. "That's right. One for each element, to be precise. Moreover, there is a non-attributed orb as well, making a total of 21. It is a bit better than the [Martial Emperor Body Technique], but not by much. So, we have 19 options left."
The girls realized that after focusing, they could sense the attribute of the orb, and the only one missing was the Sun Attributed skill.
The girls couldn't help but feel speechless when they thought about the previous owner of Andrea's Body Cultivation technique. Evelyn asked with a weird expression. "So, the person who got Andrea's technique also managed to transform their key into a Diamond Key?"
Kali followed with a pitying look. "And, instead of choosing the one that fitted him in a bout of greed, he chose the Sun-attributed one. He had probably never seen something of this quality, so he might have thought that the technique could allow him to understand and use the Sun attribute."
Andrea commented. "For all we know, Body Cultivators are quite ignorant on how the elements work, unlike us, Spiritual Cultivators."
Valeria corrected them. "That's because Distancia is a young World. They would know and teach these things if it were a high-level body cultivator."
Yasenia couldn't help but notice. "Say, the one that created this was quite far ahead of Distancia's power cap, no? Twenty-one Transcendence-Rank techniques, one for each attribute? It's as if he could buy them in a shop at will. I think that not even a few second-ranked powers in the Sky continent have this many, no?"
Tatyana didn't deny it and got thoughtful. "Weak second-ranked powers would, in fact, not have this many."
They stayed silent for a moment, appreciating the treasure trove before them.
Angel asked cutely. "Can't we steal them? I think that this time, the seniors interfering should not be out of bounds. It's a huge reward to let it pass, no?"
The girls gave a side-eye to Angel, but they didn't deny it.
Tatyana, surprisingly, shook her head. "We can't. Or, at least, I have no way of doing it. What about you two?"
Valeria shook her head. "The defenses around them are too tight. It feels as if an otherworldy thing did them to the point of perfection. The formation is flawless, and if someone even touches them, they will activate."
Mirrory agreed. "The strength is also enough even to endanger Transcendence Realm cultivators, not to mention us."
The girls sighed with reluctance, and then, they began deciding on which ones to choose.
For those curious, the twenty-one elements were Water, Fire, Earth, Metal, Wood, Attributeless, Nature, Wind, Glass, Magma, Light, Darkness, Ice, Lightning, Moon, Star, Sun, Fate, Space, Life, and Death.
(Author Note: Without reading further, which ones would you choose if you had nine options and why? Comment below!)
Tatyana looked at them and pondered. "How do we take so that all of us have at least one? We can take nine of them, with Sun already out of the list. In my opinion, we should take all the rare ones and decide on the rest, no?"
Yasenia agreed. "Moon, Star, Fate, Death, Life, and Space make six. These are essential. And we have three keys left. I think taking Lightning, Nature, and Light should be best, right?"
The dragoness commented. "We miss Wind, Wood, Ice, Metal, and Glass, though."
Evelyn said. "I think we can substitute Light with Glass."
Kali also commented. "While Nature benefits me, the Life attributed one is enough. We should take Metal. It is one of the basic elements and is related to blacksmithing and so many other trades. Glass, Metal, and Lightning should be best. Light is good because both Evelyn and Angel use it, but if we take Glass and Lightning, we cover their main elements, and the Metal one can be used for our power, and also Andrea can use it herself."
Yasenia didn't have anything else to say; she overlooked a few things because she was excited, but her dears were there to cover for her.
With a plan in their minds, they all used their Diamond Keys and the last [Library Tickets] on what they planned.
The names of the techniques were like this:
Fate: [Fate Twisting Embodiment Technique]
Space: [Spatial Harmonizing Body Technique]
Moon: [Lunar Tide Reversal Body Technique]
Sun: [Immortal Sun Obliterating Body Technique]
Star: [Stellar Fusion Core Body Technique]
Life: [Eternal Vitality Embodiment Technique]
Death: [Death's Embrace Body Refining Technique]
Lightning: [Thunderstorm Body Forge Technique]
Glass: [Crystal Resonance Attunement Body Technique]
Metal: [Adamantine Alloy Body Forging Technique]
After they got their techniques, they were all transported outside, where they had been initially sucked into the [Library of Trials].
************************************************************
Kali: We finally got them, love.
Yasenia: Yes! We finally got them!
Tatyana: Now, we need to create yours, Little Treasure.
Yasenia: Right… QAQ.
Cecile: Don't worry, my love. I'm sure it won't take much.
Author: We'll see about that, hahaha. I summon you!
Volfkami: Hello! Previously known as WPOmega, I come again with a new and more refined name.
Angel: Hahaha, even you got an upgrade, WPOmega!
Volfkami: That I did. Thanks for the praise, little Angel.
Volfkami: So, author, can you summon our favorite perverted lamia, Fascia?
Author: Done!
Fascia: Hm? A heavenly being summoned me! I wonder what their skin looks like…
Fascia: What is this? You don't even have skin? You are a humanoid… something?
Author: Cough, don't be rude, Fascia. Answer his question.
Fascia: Whose?... LADY YASENIA!
Yasenia: W-What's wrong?
Fascia: ALLOW THIS LOWLY ONE TO LICK YOU ARM. IT HAS BEEN A FEW MONTHS SINCE I HAD THE CHANCE TO TASTE SUCH DIVINE SKIN! I FEEL LIKE I'M GOING INSANE.
Volfkami: F-Fascia, before that, can you answer me?
Fascia: Sure.
Volfkami: H-How did you change expressions- You know what, never mind. Here is the question.
Volfkami: Do you think you've developed a tattoo good enough for Yasenia or any of the girls yet?
Fascia: Ah, friend, you've spoken one of my worst fears. I've tried it in the past, but I feel fear at the last moment, and I'm unable to wield my tools! What if it is not perfect? What if I create a blemish in that impeccable skin? I can't… That's why I'm training day and night to create something that at least will be last. However, for now, I've had no success…
Volfkami: Cough, I see. Good luck.
Fascia: Yes… Now, onto important matters. LADY YASENIA-.
Author: Leaving the perverted lamia aside, this is all for today! Bye-bye!
