The Mystic body refinement array was a formation designed with precision and symmetry. It took the form of an eight-pointed star, each point extending outward and ending with a small platform where a cultivator could sit. At the center of the star, there was a larger, central platform reserved for the facilitator who oversees the transformative process.
The formation consisted of several intricate patterns and symbols, which represented the path of cultivating spirit essence. These complex designs were woven together with the utmost care and attention, with not a single blemish or flaw in sight. Even the smallest detail, such as a minuscule line or curve, seemed significant in the overall scheme of things.
In addition to the meticulous layout of the formation, the materials used to create it were of the finest quality. The special gold plating that lined the edges of each platform appeared to be purer and brighter than anything ever seen before. The silky red silk that had been draped around each platform was softer than any cloth anyone had touched.
The jade slab platform glowed with an emerald luster, reflecting off the intricate carvings engraved upon its surface. In total, this array was worthy of being considered priceless, as it contained immeasurable worth to a cultivator seeking to progress in their path.
Once activated, the formation creates a cocoon around the person. At the same time, the Sacred Nectar of the Eternal Tree seeps into the cocoon, which purges all the impurities accumulated inside the body, thereby purifying every cell while assisting with the refinement of the spirit body.
In the final stage, the cultivator's spirit would evolve while their bodies underwent a profound transformation. Only after completing the transformation and refining a spirit body could they harness the maximum potential of spirit essence.
"Everything is possible because of the Astral Nexus Core Orb. Without it, we would have no idea about it, and it would have been impossible for us to know and find the sacred nectar of the tree older than the world." Asher said as he smiled at them.
"Really? A tree that's older than the world itself? Whoever created this formation must have spent a fortune or maybe sacrificed many things..." Aria murmured thoughtfully as she looked up at him with a hint of doubt in her eyes; her curiosity had been piqued greatly.
Asher knew why Aria was concerned since they didn't know anything about the creator of this formation, so he clarified the situation. "I know what you want to say, but don't worry. There are no issues at all with using the array."
He then beckoned at the formation again to explain. "First, we have to sit down cross-legged on the platform within this formation. After this, I will activate the formation to start the refinement process for everyone. As we proceed, you may notice a tiny bit of pain due to your body being cleansed and refined by the sacred nectar from the Eternal Tree."
"This might cause discomfort in the internal organs in your body, as it may feel like something is crawling inside you." Asher explained carefully.
"I assume that it won't be as simple as it seems. There must be some precaution needed before using it, correct?" Olivia guessed, as she had already expected this from Asher's brief description of how this method worked earlier.
Asher looked at Olivia with a smile, but that soon turned into a smirk, which everyone in this room immediately noticed.
Mia took note of Asher's grin and became alarmed immediately; there was something he wasn't telling them yet... and she knew it was definitely something perverted!
Her suspicions were confirmed when Asher chuckled mischievously and took his sweet time while keeping his gaze fixated on each of the girls around him, then replied, "Oh yes, it'll get a little messy, ladies... I suggest everyone remove all of their clothing prior to activating the formation and starting this process of body refinement.
You shouldn't wear anything while the transformation happens; otherwise, it might result in you getting yourself covered with fluids coming out of the pores of your body during the transformation."
The next moment, Oliva and others blushed brightly, their faces flushed with embarrassment, especially after noticing the teasing glint dancing across his blue eyes while speaking these words. They tried their best to hide their shame under a mask of stoic indifference. Yet despite their efforts, Asher could see right through them easily.
Mia looked at Asher incredulously for a moment, after which her face turned bright red. "Seriously, Ashie?! That's so weird and perverted!"
Though, Aria remained as calm as ever, as she maintained a mischievous smile throughout Asher's explanation and listened attentively. "Is that so? It's not a big problem. We'd better begin right away. What do you think, honey?"
Aria's sudden response made Asher chuckle involuntarily as he said, "Yes, we should start; there's no need to waste any further time now."
Lysandra rolled her eyes, and she said teasingly, "Little Ash, you pervert. You definitely prepared everything beforehand so that you could see our bare bodies."
Asher smirked. "What are you talking about? It's purely out of necessity. You all heard what I said about getting dirty if you were wearing clothes during transformation, right? Do you want to become naked in front of me or not? Make up your mind."
Olivia blushed even further, along with Maria and Eleanor, hearing Asher's blunt retort, but they still couldn't resist giggling at Lysandra's silly accusation.
Aria tilted her head playfully and said, "You silly boy, I know that it is for the ritual, but it would have been better if you didn't say that with a smirk on your face."
Asher smiled at Aria and said in a playful tone, "Haha... well, it is kind of exciti-"
"Don't finish that sentence, or I might consider kicking you." Aria didn't let him finish his sentence, as she immediately interrupted Asher while giving him a playful glare.
Nadia had a smile on her face, glancing between everyone else involved in this amusing banter. She also wished to join in and laugh freely with them, but decided to remain silent.
