Soul Ruler!

After a few hours, while resting, he heard a knock on the door, waking him from his deep introspections.

"Prince, sister Qing Xieyu is here to deliver something," he heard Thalia's voice; it seemed the Goddess had sent the Qing Xieyu.

He opened the door, and Thalia was standing further from the door; from the way she called him, he knew she didn't want Qing Xieyu to tell that something was between them.

She walked before he did and returned to the room; he found m she had added another seater; there were three of them in the room now.

He sat on one of the three couches facing Qing Xieyu, wearing a red dress and small shoulder straps; she looked beautiful as always.

She looked at Thalia with mockery before she let out;

"Thalia, you can stop pretending I know already between you and the Prince, the Goddess told me herself!" She was tired of Thalia's pretense games since she came; Thalia was behaving like a good maid...

"T-The Goddess knows?" She stammered; she looked at Phate, who had no changes in his expression.

She knew he told the Goddess; after knowing this little fact, she went and sat directly on his thighs before she gave Qing Xieyu a playful smile.

"There she goes again..." Qing Xieyu, who was used to Thalia's unruly and playful ways, just grumped a little; Phate, on the other hand, just hugged her waist.

The Goddess had purposely told her not to tease her son's woman - Thalia - too much!

"Prince, Master told me to deliver the cultivation technique to you," she brought out a black-golden technique orb from the ring and gave it to him.

Phate didn't need it to touch it as it directly entered him through his glabella; he crossed his eyes while Thalia immediately went away.

They both stared at him in pride and envy; he could start soul cultivation before he was even a Demi Immortal. This...no one has ever done it. It's one of their universal cultivation laws, but it strangely didn't apply to their master's son!

Souls Ruler!

It was the name of the soul cultivation technique at mythic rank; strangely, the method would rise in rank by devouring other techniques and the soul energy of his targets.

Only after you start Soul Cultivation can you have soul energy!

It allowed him to get other soul technique orbs of a lower rank for it to devour! This was the first time he had heard of such a technique; they were rare, but they exist. 

They were nicknamed the Ancient Techniques!

It is believed to have originated from the first cultivation era's civilization, the era of gods! The technique was so unique he didn't even have to start forming his Soul Pond, but it was formed immediately as he learned the quarter of the technique.

His comprehension of techniques was so shocking that it only took him a minute of seeing through the technique to learn a quarter of it.

It should be noted that it took more than a month of cultivation and deep concentration for an average person to comprehend the complex Soul Cultivation techniques.

Not only that but instead of a Soul Pond, a Soul River was formed!

A Soul Pond is the first step in soul cultivation every Demi Immortal takes as they embark on cultivating their souls.

An infinity space is opened inside one's soul the moment one starts soul cultivation, but you won't have full access to it; the more you advance in soul cultivation, the more space you gain access to.

At the start, one can only open a pond's worthy space, then the river before it advances into a giant lake of soul space, to the sea, ocean, and finally, it turns into a vast Soul World! 

From a pond to a world!

Each of these has four stages (1-4). After reaching the peak, you would enter another realm - from a river to a lake.

The soul space is, of course, where the soul energy one cultivates is stored.

His cultivation speed skyrocketed as he formed his soul river and also got the Soul Sense ability; it was the powerful version of the spiritual sense.

The former, a cultivator, could possibly see things as if he's there, like being there spiritually; as for the latter, one can only see things as if he's watching a black-and-white 160p video of a CRT monitor.

Phate immediately started cultivating the yin he got from Thalia...

Boom!

Within one hour, he has a breakthrough into the second realm of soul cultivation; his soul river expanded, too. 

____

'So I didn't get more abilities of Fate Weaver, but I can cut fate threads slowly without the other party knowing. Too bad I still have the realm limitations.' Phate thought.

He opened his eyes and found Thalia looking at him; Qing Xieyu had already left.

She had something to take care of.

"Congratulations, Phate," she came to him.

"Mhmm~" Phate didn't give her a reply and kissed her lips right away; after he pulled her onto his lap, she wound her hands around his neck and let him kiss her while returning his advances too.

As if in heat, they continued, taking off their clothes until they were butt naked, their good bodies on full display.

Phate laid her on the long couch she had just added in the room hours ago, and they started cultivating after that!

The next day.

"Hey, Lulu, come on and read this; the Prince is making a scene as soon as he comes to the sect." Mei banged into her friend's room, and she was just from outside.

Mei and Lulu stayed in the same room, so it was easy for the former to enter as she pleased.

"What's it, Mei?" Lulu came out of her room with only a towel, converting her body. Luluhad had a nice body, and it was well developed with every curve in its proper place; it was rumored that the elder's granddaughter was more beautiful than many inner court disciples.

Many male disciples, even those in the core court, wanted her, but she apparently just wanted to advance in her cultivation. In the meantime, she turned them down.

Mei looked at her black-haired and blue-eyed friend with slight envy over her curvy body. But she immediately dismissed those thoughts from her mind, and she wasn't less beautiful too, only lost to Lulu slightly.

"The Prince h-has..." Mei stammered, not knowing how to say this.

"Has what?" Lulu was dying of curiosity.

"He has opened a m-massage parlor..."
