Chapter 388 - Training Darlene (1)
"You're quite the handful, aren't you?"
Darlene continued to struggle in Leon's arms, but shortly after he silenced her by sealing her soft lips with his own, her resistance grew weaker and weaker.
Leon pried open her cherry red lips and invaded inside with his tongue like a predator seeking its prey. The frightened rabbit inside the cave tried to escape, but it was caught and coiled by the snake.
"Mmmm!"
As their tongue intertwined and exchanged a long passionate kiss, Darlene's body became weak and soft in Leon's arms.
"Finally feel like behaving?" Leon looked at the quiet Darlene, breathing haggardly after their lips parted.
"I have no choice. I can't win against you anyway." Darlene pursed her lips and said with a small blush. She nestled her head more comfortably against his chest and went silent after.
Leon grinned and took her away.
They left the palace and descended through the air from the top of the rocky plateau. The wind brushed against their faces and made Darlene's hair flutter in the wind as her heart thumped with a bit of nervousness and greater excitement.
'Is this what flying feels like?' She wondered.
Her hands subconsciously wrapped around Leon's neck and hugged him tightly in fear of falling as she looked at the distance to the ground.
Even so, she felt that shaman abilities were quite wondrous and incredible. She wondered if she could ever fly like this one day.
However, it was just a fleeting thought. She knew that she cannot cultivate and will never be able to achieve anything significant.
"Where are we going?" Darlene asked in a small voice like a timid mouse. It has been a while since she last left the rocky plateau area and return to the tribe's ground area. She silently hoped that they would not run into her old family.
"To the private courtyard that will become our future permanent residence," Leon answered.
"Oh…"
Darlene uttered and did not comment further.
But shortly after, she began to wonder why her hubby wanted to take her there while her sisters in the palace are left behind.
Didn't her hubby say that the chief had agreed to him taking them away with her? Why is it just the two of them heading there now? Maybe her hubby wanted them to do 'it' in a place more private without anyone around?
Darlene blushed at her own thoughts and tightened her hold around Leon's neck. However, a weird smell shortly pervaded her nose and caused her expression to crumple.
"By the way, hubby."
"Hm? What is it?"
"You stink!"
Darlene pinched her nose cutely in disgust. Leon was taken aback and immediately said, "How can that be? I made sure to clean myself before I came back."
His rear still felt like it was on fire as he was sure as hell that he was suffering from hemorrhoids after the big turd tore open his backdoor and dropped like an air cannon, but he still wiped his rear and even conjured water to rinse himself.
'Did I not wipe properly?'
Leon began doubting himself.
"Not that. It's your skin that smells." Darlene explained and tried to peel herself away, but to no avail. They were still gliding through the air, and she did not want to fall.
"I see." Leon quickly understood what Darlene was referring to before asking, "Is it that bad?"
"Very bad. Too stinky!" Darlene fanned her nose.
Leon smiled wryly.
His skin's subtle bad smell came from the demonic beast excrement he found and used in his skin color changing cream. The scent will not be very noticeable with regular washing, but it is still present, nonetheless.
It seems that he would need to find some time to concoct a new cream to remove the bad smell permanently.
Sometime later, they landed directly inside the private courtyard. Despite that, Darlene continued to cling to Leon tightly.
"We've arrived," Leon stated in case she had yet to realize it. Darlene knew, but she was not in a hurry to stand.
"Why did you bring me here alone? Are we going to do 'that' here?" Darlene inquired with great blush and averted her eyes.
Leon shook his head and said, "Physical intimacy is good and all, but excessive indulgence is bad. I do not want our relationship to only be about using each other's bodies for carnal pleasure and satisfying our lust. We should look towards understanding each other better and improve our relationship on the spiritual level."
"Did hubby only bring me out here for us to talk?" Darlene asked with a look of doubt. They did not need to go all the way out here if it was just that, right?
"Ahem, no." Leon gave a dry cough and said, "Actually, I brought you here because the private open space is suitable for what I want to try and achieve."
Darlene continued to look at him with doubt before he continued to talk, "I once said that you will be able to cultivate, and I plan to make good on my words. But before that, I need to confirm something. Keep still for a second."
Darlene's heart lightly raced.
She had already come to terms with the fact that she cannot cultivate long ago, but can she really cultivate? It would be a really cruel thing to do if her hubby lifted her hopes up only to crush it back down more ruthlessly.
Darlene felt something strange enter her body as Leon used his divine sense to observe the situation inside her sea of consciousness.
As expected, there was a Seed of Spatial Law inside of Darlene. However, the Seed of Spatial Law was different from what Leon had imagined.
In fact, the Seed of Spatial Law was similar to the Black Vortex inside of his own sea of consciousness. It was a black hole that occupied the central region where the soul core should have been.
As Leon sent his divine sense closer, he could feel the power of attraction, pulling his spirit into the black hole. He was not sure if he would be able to extricate himself from the black hole if he were to enter it.
However, he did not need to go that far.
He could sense Darlene's soul core inside along with a large amount of Darkness Profound Energy. The black hole was the reason behind why Darlene could not cultivate.
All the Darkness Profound Energy used to train her body was swallowed by the black hole the moment they entered her body.
Leon did not know how this came to be, but he began to guess that this must be some sort of unique soul constitution. Even so, there was a bunch of Void Bodies in the Darkmoon Tribe. Does this mean that they also have this kind of soul constitution?
How can there be so many people with spatial alignment in one place? Perhaps, it has something to do with the Sky's Suppression being weaker in the Dark Continent and the hole in the southern sky?
Whatever the case was, it was not too important. What is important is he could sense great power sleeping inside of the black hole. If Darlene was able to tap into this dormant power, how strong can she become? He was curious to find out.
Shortly after, Leon retracted his divine sense.
"What was that just now, hubby? I feel like something just entered my body." Darlene said uncomfortably as she felt like her body had been strip bare with nothing to hide.
"I was using one of my many abilities to take a look inside you to confirm whether you can cultivate a different method," Leon stated.
"You have an ability that let you look inside my body?" Darlene blinked with a blank look before her complexion turned red from blushing. She coquettishly spouted, "H-Hubby is a big pervert."
Leon almost choked on his own saliva after hearing this. However, he can only accept it like a man and not make any excuse.
He scratched his cheek wryly and said, "Alright. Stand up now. Today will be the day you begin cultivation."
"Can I really? You're really not lying to me?" Darlene asked with watery eyes.
Leon nodded and said, "There is another method available to you. It won't be the same as what everyone else is cultivating, but it is not too late to start on that once you succeed in this alternative method."
Leon was not lying.
If Darlene can learn to control her blackhole and stop it from devouring everything, it should be possible for her to also practice the body cultivation method of the Darkmoon Tribe.
"Alright, let us begin immediately." He said.
"Is it like some sort of Shaman ability? What do I have to do, hubby?" Darlene asked with a bit of apprehension and doubt.
"It's similar but not quite the same. First, I need you to become aware that you already have the power of the Spatial Laws dwelling inside your body. I am going to help you learn how to use this power." Leon explained.
By now, he had already understood that Shamans are people with strong mental strength and the ability to move things with their minds.
They are people who have satisfied the prerequisite for becoming Spiritual Array Masters but have not embarked on the path due to the insufficiency of Spirit Energy in the atmosphere.
"I have the power of Spatial Laws? How come I don't know about this? How will you help me, hubby?"
Darlene's brows were wrinkled with confusion. At this point, everything Leon had told her seemed too incredulous and nonsensical.
Leon began picking rocks from the ground and said, "I'm going to help you learn using these."
