Jason was dumbfounded while looking at the fox that had simply decided to attack the group of humans, without bothering to pay attention to the powerhouse at the peak of the Prismar stage.

The man didn't even budge, and it looked like he was just there to protect the young humans that were probably trying to defeat the powerful fox.

In some way, it even looked like the young group of six humans were familiar with the fox that had a wind and fire affinity seed in his mana core.

At the same time, it was able to use psychokinesis and some sort of illusion with which it was creating replicas of itself.

This was possible by using spiritual force and Jason found it extremely interesting because his knowledge about the Spiral cultivation path was shallow.

He didn't know what perks this cultivation path had, and was glad to be able to figure out more right now.

The six younger humans were cultivating in the same path, and Jason observed them intently.

While unsheathing their weapons, they circulated spiritual force through their body and inserting it into their respective weapons, thereby enhancing them in a way similar to mana.

After that, the group of humans charged at the fox whose fur had distinct green streaks intertwined through the fiery red color in stark contrast.

It was only one meter tall, but it would be utterly foolish to assume that its small build meant that it was harmless.

While the small group of humans charged at it, the fox used its foxfire to conjure several fireballs which it threw towards the group, only to enveloped its body with the wind affinity.

A moment later, a strong gust of wind manifested around the fox, further accelerating its speed that was already much higher than that of the humans.

Suddenly, the six humans were utilising the technique which Jason had already seen a few months earlier, in the battlefield of the Devils and Angels.

As such by using the particular technique, a white hue enveloped them, giving him the chance to evaluate its strength for the first time.

Last time, he had been too far away, and only now could he properly look at the hue. While gazing intently, Jason noticed that it was a weaker version of a normal aura.

As a human, he didn't really have an aura, and the reason for that was probably that he had yet to comprehend any.

In the end, his Celestia aura was naturally created when he unsealed his bloodline for the first time, undergoing the primal awakening.

Because of that, he never had any problems with comprehending an aura, but Jason also never got to know how great his aura was.

That was also the reason he wanted to perceive the aura of others, only to figure out that the white hue that radiated from the young men and women was a basic or unrefined version of an aura.

Nevertheless, it was interesting to figure out that a technique allowing one to comprehend how to manifest a hue existed.

A requirement for this was probably the cultivation path one cultivated in or something else Jason had yet to figure out.

However, what caused Jason's interest to increase exponentially were the benefits of the white hue.

Not only did the hue allow the young humans to increase their energy circulation speed, but it also reinforced their body to a certain extent, making them less prone to attacks on their mind.

Jason's aura worked similarly, yet, was a completely different league as it protected him from the attacks of others too.

Its protection was only to a minuscule degree, but it was one reason for him to be still alive.

Furthermore, the Celestia aura made others believe he was friendly and approachable more than it should be in case of their first encounter.

It was weird, and just a fraction of what his naturally generated aura could do.

Even if that was the case, Jason had received his aura by a stroke of luck, and it was not comprehended or taught in a manual, which he would have loved to read.

Jason even assumed that his aura could be strengthened as long as his comprehension allowed him to realise what exactly the aura was and how to improve it.

There might as well be several stages of an aura, with the hue being the first one.

However, this could also be wrong, thus Jason decided to watch the battle first before anything else.

While he had been deep in thoughts, the fight of the fox and the six humans had become more intense.

The mana around the seven beings was becoming unstable as they used up much more than Jason could even store.

By employing the ability of his Emperor Eyes to the highest degree that he was able to maintain for a few minutes, he observed everything without many difficulties.

While observing the battle that was evidently not a life-and-death fight, Jason was becoming more interested in the fox than the humans with their hues, and complex utilisation of their spiritual force.

Neither the fox nor the humans put their utmost efforts or fought desperately to survive, giving him the reason to think that the fox and humans were familiar with each other and not arch-enemies that were hellbent to kill each other.

That was not necessarily important but Jason was disappointed because he had hoped to see something magnificent if everyone were to fight with their life on the line.

Nevertheless, the complex utilisation of spiritual force was completely different than how mana was utilised.

In Jason's opinion, mana was relatively simple to use. Circulating it through his body enhanced him from the inside, and enveloping himself with it strengthened his defenses.

It was only becoming more difficult with affinities one could utilise because they were versatile with countless ways to be utilised.

However, even then, most were using their affinities to the bare minimum which was only obvious.

The less taxing it was to use an affinity, the more often one could use it.

Other than that, Jason also knew that most humans on Argos would rather use multiple affinities, each for their respective quality instead of altering one affinity in order to fit into the task another affinity was much better at.

This was caused by the comfort a soul world gave, and the exact thing Jason didn't want to happen.

Since he had received an affinity, Jason liked to test his affinities, which was the reason for him to create the ice mist, the poisonous mist, blazing icicles, and so on.

In the end, they had been extremely useful in connection with his Emperor Eyes, but by observing the humans in front of him, he found that his mind was still working at a basic level.

'They're refining their mind as a way to cultivate, which allows them to use their spiritual force in a much more complex way. This, in turn, makes them stronger...that's interesting!'

Intrigued by the humans, and the fox that were using their spiritual force to create illusions, attack with psychokinesis, and other means, Jason didn't even care about the fact that they were fighting as if this was a training course!

'If I could refine my brain like them, would I be able to use my affinities in a similarly complex way?'
