Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

"But I can sense the emotions of those whom I seal and even access their minds to an extent and read their memories. I can also stir up any emotion that I want in them... and this is all due to my special physique."

"What special physique?"

This wasn't something that Cora wanted to reveal unless Arthur compelled her to but she wanted to say some things on her own to build some level of trust. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

Maybe it might make things easier for the situation in that she has found herself.

"The Seven Emotions Physique."

Arthur furrowed his brows, as he could somewhat guess what her physique was all about.

"The Seven Emotions Physique is one of my greatest secrets and only my sister and I along with my late father know about it."

"It allows me to sense the feelings or emotions of those around me and at the same time grants me the ability to stir up these same emotions in the same people."

"With the only restriction being the emotions of those who have a more powerful soul than mine..." She stopped as this reminded her of Arthur's.

"This ability of mine is greatly amplified if the person's soul has to be bound to my control."

'That is such a powerful physique!' Arthur thought in his heart, gladened that his soul is powerful enough to overcome it.

'No wonder I felt a strange power try to manipulate my mind the first time I saw her,' Arthur recalled how Ava was controlled back then.

"I see, but all these are not possible if the Soul Bind technique is used by others, correct?"

"Yes."

Arthur nodded. He would have to find a way to confirm if he could only sense her feelings because of the seal, or if that applied to others too.

'If it did...' Arthur thought of how much this could help him especially when he wants to filter out traitors in the faction he wants to build.

'Even if that isn't possible I could still make her use her power to do it for me, but...' Arthur felt that Cora was more valuable if she wasn't forced to do all his bidding.

'I will not be breaking the seal though, not now...maybe in the future if I have absolutely no need for her.'

Arthur then recalled the information that Cora told him about herself.

She and her sister got gravely injured in a battle against a powerful enemy that they could not contend against, and they only barely managed to escape to the Mortal Emperor Realm by chance.

They coincidentally arrived at the time when the continents just got split and due to the manner in which they got here, both sisters got separated, with Cora ending up on the Southern Continent.

At that time, she was so weak that she could barely protect herself, so she used her illusion techniques which she was skilled in, and controlled a hidden beast men tribe elder to assist her in setting up the secret realm.

This revealed to Arthur that the Beast Men Tribe was actually on the Southern Continent and no one knew all this time.

According to Cora, they just got displaced at that time as that was when the continent was split apart.

She was the one who gave them a treasure that had kept their tribe hidden and protected for thousands of years. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

Arthur then understood. After all, a treasure from a higher realm could not be overlooked.

She did not reveal her true appearance while she did all these things and used the appearance of the middle-aged man that they saw in the secret realm.

After that, she sent out tokens and gave them specifically to a high-ranking member of the Alchemy Association. pelled her to do so.

So he knew that she wasn't an evil cultivator. But that would not mean that Arthur would set her free.

Even if she isn't evil, she could have tried to have Ava help her without placing a seal on her soul.

But if there is anything you would learn in this world is that no one can be fully trusted especially when benefits come to play.

'At the same time, no one can be an eternal enemy when you both have something to gain,' Arthur thought to himself.

He finally decided to use a soft approach with Cora, as with the ability to sense her emotions, she would not be able to hide things from him.

Thinking of this, he turned to her.

"Here is the deal, Cora. I can help you regain your strength. I might even help you find your sister as fast as possible as she might be in danger depending on what you described happened."

"But all of that would be on the premise that you do everything I say just like a servant obeying the instructions of her, Master."

Cora nodded to show her understanding and felt a bit of surprise in her heart.

"I will, Master." She complied as her pride is nothing when compared to her sister's well-being.

Arthur sensed feelings of slight happiness and approval?...
