Chapter 393: Chapter 393. The terrifying [Beast Physique Pill]. Unexpected situation.
Author Note: Trigger warning(?): Intense chapter, cliffhanger at the end.
***************************
At first, there weren't any changes. They could only see Yasenia looking at her own body, not understanding what the pill was doing.
When they were about to ask, they saw Yasenia's facial expression change as she said hurriedly. "Mom, get Kaleina from me."
Tatyana flashed and instantly took Yasenia's neck armor together with Kaleina. The little purple dragon poked her head out of the pocket and looked around with pearly golden eyes. After seeing her mother's frowning face, Kaleina squeaked in worry. Tatyana patted her head with her finger. "Don't worry. She will be okay in the end."
The little dragon has almost doubled in length. However, this growth was not immense since she was initially tiny. Now, she was as long as an arm if she stretched her body.
They were confused until a sound that made their bodies get goosebumps began sounding.
*Cra-crack CRACK!*
The sound of bones cracking filled the room as Yasenia grunted in pain. The sound was intensely unpleasant.
Tatyana frowned for a second, and then she remembered something. "Little treasure, go outside. Angel, help me operate the formation to block sound and vibrations. Also, make it impossible to look inside from the outside. We can't let people know what is about to happen. If anybody breaks through the formations, send Sierra to intercept and kill them without mercy. The others, stay around Yasenia and don't relax your nerves. Stay in a battle-ready mood."
They didn't know what was happening but didn't even question Tatyana and got to work.
In an instant, everybody moved outside, and Angel's aura unfurled, engulfing the whole mansion and activating the formations.
Her long blonde hair waved with powerful energy emissions, and her blue eyes had zero of the usual innocence, looking sharp and attentive.
Countless green, yellow, and red lines spread throughout the mansion and shone briefly while Angel used her energy to activate everything.
From the outside, it was as if a white dome with yellow, green, and red runes appeared out of nowhere.
Of course, something like this caught the attention of many people walking in the surroundings, especially those on standby to observe them.
Yasenia was in the middle of the garden, her bones cracking, and if you looked closely, her skin was stretching and relaxing with countless spasms.
Cecile and the others felt their heart twitching with each painful-sounding sound.
Meanwhile, Tatyana floated upward, and she extended her hand.
An exquisite black Formation Pen with engravings of dragons and phoenixes appeared on her hand.
Tatyana's hand blurred, and green and black runes appeared around her, creating countless complex patterns.
Angel's jaw dropped, and her eyes widened.
Evelyn asked. "What is she doing?"
Angel stuttered. "She is creating a formation only Transcendence Realm cultivators should be able to create. It should be impossible to do so with her cultivation level. However, I can also feel that these formations will be very weakened because of the quality of energy Tatyana is limited to. However..."
Angel saw the hundreds of symbols appearing around Tatyana each second as the woman moved from side to side in an elegant dance and sucked in a deep breath. "To compare, I would need a week to create one of the hundred symbols Tatyana creates each second."
Their eyes couldn't help but widen in pure and unadulterated awe.
Mirrory appeared and squinted. "Impressive. Angel, your talent is high. Nevertheless, you are only ordinary before Tatyana as you currently are. Of course, you've just begun, and she has plenty of experience. However, even if you both began at the same level right now, she would overcome you with giant steps."
Angel didn't feel discouraged but motivated. "I know. However, I will catch up to her sooner or later!"
Mirrory smirked after hearing the answer she wanted. "Good, don't lose that motivation; you'll eventually catch up if we work together."
With someone as monstrous as Tatyana before her, Angel's objective was material and within her reach. It wasn't something ethereal but something that existed right before her eyes and, therefore, something that she would eventually be able to do if she worked hard enough.
Although our baby was usually calm regarding everything around her, that changed when dealing with formations. When talking about her second most significant hobby, Angel was exceptionally competitive.
Tatyana finished her preparations and nodded. "This should stop all shockwaves and her aura."
Then, Tatyana's eyes became cold. "And if somebody dares come and interrupt her, heh."
A chilling smile appeared on her lips as she observed the people surrounding their mansion with her bright red eyes.
While all of this was going on, Yasenia was feeling terrible.
It was as if something had grabbed all her limbs and skin and was pulling on them vigorously.
If it wasn't because she couldn't see anything around her, she feared that her hands and legs would pop out of their joints at any moment.
Moreover, the sound of her bones cracking and becoming bigger was terrible, not to mention the discomfort and pain that all this caused.
It was as if countless needles pierced her bones, and someone moved them around.
The terrible part was that this feeling was happening across her whole body.
If Yasenia weren't someone with enough mental resilience, this kind of pain would be enough to make anyone shout in agony until their vocal strings snapped.
Despite Yasenia's robust mental resilience, grunts and short roars of pain occasionally exited her throat.
The only thing that made Yasenia not question if something went wrong was the abundant energy the pill was releasing.
The Primordial Energy Core and Celestial Pearl worked at maximum efficiency as they created enough energy to nourish the absurdly accelerated growth Yasenia was currently experiencing.
Andrea and the others felt uncomfortable seeing Yasenia suffer so much. However, they couldn't do anything besides take care of any situations that may occur on the outside.
After half an hour, Angel couldn't help but ask with a distressed tone, "Why is Yasenia becoming bigger? Isn't she supposed to transform into a human after eating that pill?"
Yasenia's length, without including the tail, was already three-and-a-half meters long. Compared with her previous two-and-a-half was significant growth.
If she was supposed to transform into a human, Yasenia should be shrinking, but the size kept constantly increasing with those heart-wrenching sounds.
Tatyana explained. "Yasenia's growth, even before ingesting the pill, was already accelerated. The main reason is that her soul is mature, so the body has no restraints in developing into a mature form. This pill forces the body to work on the limits to grow to a mature shape."
Tatyana sighed. "Of course, this pill is very obscure and unpopular because if a real young beast ingests it, it will damage their foundation and, most of the time, kill them."
Cecile frowned with worry. "Then, why is it even made? Although it is somewhat beneficial, it doesn't seem worth it for a young beast to ingest it compared to developing naturally."
Tatyana nodded. "You are right. Yasenia is an exception to it. However..." Tatyana sighed and explained. "Demonic Beast Tamers don't really care about that. Normally, their rituals involve adult beast sacrifices. Therefore, with this pill, they can, well, "Grow" adult beasts faster to use as materials for their rituals or other things. Some are wicked enough to use them for breeding."
Their faces changed a little. Although they weren't merciful, hearing this kind of thing made them somewhat nauseous.
Imagine exchanging a young beast for a young human and doing the same. The brutality of the process was easy for all to see.
Tatyana continued. "Moreover, despite the high quality, it is one of the easiest pills in this rank to create because the drawbacks are too high. With enough time and practice, Kali could easily create it with her current skill level."
Their faces twisted in disgust. Andrea frowned, "The pill should be banned."
Tatyana shrugged. "It is prohibited in non-demonic places. However, this pill is also extremely precious for adult beasts. Although growing faster is one of its effects, the main one is perfecting a beast's body and enhancing its physique. Of course, the effects are lower the older a beast is."
"It makes young beasts grow because the "Enhanced" physique this pill forces upon the beast can only take an adult form. No matter how strong, a child cannot beat an adult physically. Therefore, the body uses nutrients and energy to reach maturity forcefully."
They knew that Tatyana wouldn't harm Yasenia, so Evelyn asked. "How is Yasenia different from others besides her mature soul?"
Tatyana said. "Her constitution is the main point that this pill is extremely beneficial for her-."
"Argh!"
Tatyana and the others turned to look at the dragoness grunting in pain, and they frowned in distress.
Yasenia smiled weakly and said. "C-Continue. Don't worry, ugh, about me."
Tatyana felt a twitch in her heart, but she continued. "[Yin and Yang Celestial Body] is a constitution that expertly regulates and balances everything inside, and in the future, around Yasenia. Her physique makes it so if she ingests something that strengthens her right arm, those effects would spread and enhance her whole body."
Kali exclaimed. "That's extremely powerful!"
Tatyana nodded. "To be honest, the only drawback of her constitution is that she has so much Yin and Yang that her lust is almost uncontrollable. However, this problem will mostly disappear once she reaches the Transcendent Realm."
Cecile asked, "Why?"
Tatyana smirked, "Well, you will know in the future."
They shook their heads, expecting an answer like that.
*CRRRACK!*
*ROAR!*
A fierce dragon roar left Yasenia's mouth, creating a small shockwave and carrying a lot of pain. The last sound sounded as if her bones had broken into pieces.
They could feel their hearts clenching as they saw Yasenia's face warping with pain.
Yasenia clawed the ground as she felt everything stretching, squeezing, strengthening, and stretching again. Moreover, her organs were twisting and turning as they grew more powerful and kept up with her body's growth.
When the others saw this, they exchanged Yasenia for Kaleina in their minds, and their disgust toward Demonic Beast Tamers grew stronger.
After five hours, the energy inside Yasenia couldn't keep up with the increasing demand her body needed to support Yasenia's growth. Not even the powerful Celestial Pearl and Primordial Energy Core could absorb and transform enough energy this fast.
Tatyana frowned and muttered. "She is consuming a lot of energy. Little Angel, you help activate the energy-gathering function. We will focus on Life, Fate, Sun, Moon, and the Star energy. Other energies are not as useful, so try avoiding them. However, I will purify most of it, so focus on quantity."
Angel nodded, and both of them got to work.
Angel was in charge of using the formation to absorb the energy from the outside toward the garden.
Tatyana focused on cleansing it of harmful things and separating all the energies that were not previously mentioned.
"Life and fate energies? Why does Yasenia need those?" Evelyn asked curiously.
Mirrory explained to them. "Fate and Life energy will help her grow. Life energy can nourish and enhance her body, while Fate energy allows Yasenia to picture her future self better and subconsciously transform more straightforwardly. Without Fate Energy, her body is constantly going by trial and error, slowly finding the perfect form. This can eventually hurt Yasenia."
They all nodded in understanding and looked at the dragoness.
She has already grown to a massive five meters in length, officially doubling in size since the beginning of the transformation.
However, Tatyana miscalculated a simple but easily forgettable thing: The amount of energy Yasenia would need to complete her growth.
Therefore, some troubles were bound to happen shortly.
