Her words were a bit misleading, if someone heard them without knowing the full context, they would definitely think something was fishy with them.
"Don't worry, Lyra. It's just a normal phenomenon. Follow my instructions and you will be all set." Evan calmly said.
Lyra, being a good sister, listened to Evan's every command.
"Sit in a lotus position, and close your eyes. It's better to do in the the ground, connected to the soil directly but this works as well."
Evan said and Lyra immediately sat on the lotus position.
"What you just ate now were the spiritual energy pills, to be more specific they are demonic energy pills. Your body is a bit special, you can harness both the spiritual energy and demonic energy, but remember one thing Lyra, you should never absorb them from your surroundings, I will make some energy pills for you so you can eat them, but never absorb them from your surrounding."
Evan warned her and continued again,
"Now, I will teach you how to store the energies you just ate into your dantian. Both of the energies you just ate are inside your body, but you will need to channel them into your dantian, it's at the place where you are feeling weird."
"First of all, look inside your body, try to feel the energies that are inside you, your potential is too high, so you will be able to do it pretty easily, just focus a bit."
Lyra followed as Evan said and looked inside her. Soon she found two different energies inside her body that were running rampant inside her veins, she was surprised at first but she believed in her big brother.
'She is truly skilled, a potential at Demi-god tier is just for a show, but in her case, her potential doesn't matter at all, with the fragment of gluttony her future is limitless, she just has to keep eating spiritual energies.'
"Now, don't try to force those energies to go inside your dantian, just take it slow and make them feel that they can reside inside you. The journey of cultivation that many follow while forcefully absorbing spiritual energy is wrong, this process just hampers their potential, and untimely at some point they reach their limit, but if you make the energies enter inside you by themselves, you will never feel a bottleneck."
"Cultivation isn't a process of going against the heaven, it's the process of reaching the heaven, uniting with the energy itself, and ascending to find a perfect form."
"Those violent energies inside your body, don't force them to go inside your dantian, they will reach there themselves, just make sure to don't to alarm them."
Evan preached to Lyra like a sage and Lyra followed his instructions, she didn't force the energies and they continued to roam inside her body, travelling to every part of her body, they soon reached her dantian.
"Dantian is the home of the energies in the surroundings, they will eventually stumble upon it and settle down. But you have to make sure of something, there are two different energies inside you, so they will fight for dominance, you have to make sure to not let that happen."
Lyra frowned upon hearing this, she didn't know what she was doing at all, and now she had to make sure not to let those energies fight, how would she do it?
"But I don't how to do it?"
"You have to make them one again, at the beginning, these energies were one, but separated-…"
He was continuing but halted in between, he didn't know why they were separated,
'System, why don't I know this? Why were they separated?'
[You knowing this much is already troublesome, host. I can just say one thing, they were made to separate, by whom? And why? I can't say it. And I suggest you don't try to find that right now. But in the future, you might know if my hunch is true.]
Evan didn't understand the latter part, but he still nodded, there were many things he didn't know yet, and it was all because he was weak, he soon needed to improve his strength.
"Forget it, I will help you to make them one again. It might be a little painful but bear with it, okay?"
Lyra nodded at his question and with a smile Evan continued, he first put his hands on her belly, they were soft and felt like cushions, but it wasn't time for this at all.
He used his ability to look inside her dantian, there two energies one blue and one black were separated by a thin line, and we were about to get mixed up.
'It wouldn't have been a problem for her even if she had both energies but I can't take any chances, if in the future something unexpected happened, I might not be able to deal with it.'
"Let's begin, leave the rest to me."
Evan said and continued to mix those energies.
'They are the energies of different properties, so they can't be together, but at the beginning, they were one. I don't know who was it that found that out, but according to that person, these energies were one at first and it was due to these energies all the lifeforms were created. Nothing else was mentioned about it anymore, except the information that said those who reach the peak will know their true reality. One more thing, at the beginning there was no concept of people using spiritual or demonic energy, what they used was the mixture of many other energies...'
Evan mixed those energies into one, after acquiring all the knowledge of cultivation just combining these energies wasn't a big deal for him.
"This new energy is called 'Chaos energy'. An energy formed by combining both spiritual and demonic energy, but this is not the end of it, other different energies need to be combined to obtain the purest essence."
Evan moved away after that, his job was done, and now everything else was up to Lyra. She also didn't disappoint him and let the energies inside her dantian.
Now, Evan doesn't have to mix those energies every time, they will become one by itself.
Soon, the energies smoothly flowed inside Lyra's dantian and her cultivation began to shore.
[Congratulations, host. You have taken your first step towards the truth of this world. This isn't a reward but a congratulations from myself. But once you can create the true essence, you will be rewarded.]
Evan listened to the system and calmly nodded,
'First of all, it's not true essence, secondly, it's gonna take me a lot of time to achieve that and besides that, I have to search for a physique suitable for her, I can't just let her eat the energies all the time, by the way, do you have a physique suitable for her?'
[I do, but it's really expensive. Even I am saying it's expensive so you can guess how high its price is, but don't worry you will definitely save enough to buy it.]
'Sigh, I feel really poor now, do you have a way for me to warn points faster?'
[I will tell you after you enter the tower, trust me you will love it.]
'You are making me excited now. Oh... she is beginning to break through, if I am correct this world currently holds the capacity to give birth to cultivators up to Soul Transformation Realm, the list goes like this...
Mortal Realm
Spirit Gathering Realm
Qi Refining Realm
Foundation Establishment Realm
Core Formation Realm
Nascent Soul Realm
Soul Transformation Realm
Each realm is equivalent to the ranks that exist in this world, from F-rank to S-rank, but after Soul Transformation Realm things completely change, but that's something for the future, I won't be needing that for now.'
'She is growing too quickly, I wonder if Celestina is doing the same with mother. Well, mother is more experienced in this matter than me, so I doubt they are having any trouble.'

Inside the sect, in the throne room.
Seraphina was sitting on the second biggest throne beside the throne of the sect leader. Celestina was blankly staring at her, wondering if she was looking at a completely different person.
"Head my command, subject, as I Seraphina the Great, your Queen and the first wife of King Evan, order you all to kneel before me. Hahaha... it will be so good to say this, but... Sigh, there are no people."
Seraphina was pretending to be the queen while Celestina watched her with her eyes opened wide, rather than domineering she felt it was stupid, she who had lived in modern times wasn't accustomed to this at all.
'She has been saying the same line since a while ago, and why does she keep on saying she is the first wife, she is the first wife? I want to go back now, but I fear she will get angry at me, I can't believe what I saw the moment we arrived here...'
