Villain Cultivator Chapter 158

The system spammed messages for each completed round of circulation.

Moreover

[You have assimilated Emerald Hopea's memory.]

[Your compatibility with wood element Qi is 100%]

[Your compatibility with chloro element Qi is 100%]

[Your compatibility with earth element Qi is 80%]

[Your compatibility with water element Qi is 75%]

[Your compatibility with ice element Qi is 75%]

Not only had the banana boosted Cao Mao's cultivation abilities, his cognitive and information analysis power also got boosted. He assimilated Hopea's elemental Qi's knowledge into his.

The absorption rate quickened as Cao Mao slowly got used to the upgraded processing speed. The lightning cloud orbit speed also got faster as more Qi strands no longer left Cao Mao's dantian.

A minute passed.

[Your compatibility with lightning element Qi is 0.50%.]

Cao Mao grinned. At this rate, his compatibility would reach 100% within 3 hours and a half. Then, he could collect all these lightning Qi strands.

Badump

Cao Mao's right eyebrow shook. At the same time, his left eyebrow, which had never twitched ever since he had come to this world, also shook.

'What the!?'

Cao Mao gritted his teeth. His instinct was crying that he should get away from here ASAP, but the unknown signal was trying to tell him something.

'Right eyebrow twitching is the danger sign, but I don't know about the left. Is it the opposite?'

Jia Shan, Kang Yan, Cao Mao's wives, and their babies hid inside the carriages, which had been moved further away to avoid complication.

As for Ju Chen, she just sat on the ground, chewing raw boar meat as if this matter didn't concern her.

Jia Wenhe observed the cloud of lightning Qi and the movements at the center from the top of the trees nearby. He was satisfied when he noticed that some of the lightning Qi stayed inside Cao Mao's dantian.

'He's a fast learner, alright. If he weren't, I would have beaten some sense into him. But he should have learned the fire element first. I can't teach him advanced alchemy if he can't even use a proper fire. That yang fire he has been using can't refine anything other than making basic pills.'

Jia Wenhe was thinking about what he should teach Cao Mao in the future while he was scanning the sky, being wary of shameless seniors.

10 minutes later, what Jia Wenhe had feared became reality. Five cultivators flew toward his direction as these people noticed the tribulation and the lightning beam.

After a brief count, Jia Wenhe brought out his heaven-grade cauldron, threatening the 5 uninvited guests. As for Ju Chen, she ignored the newcomers and continued eating her food.

Two Foundation Establishment experts and the lone 6th-stage master only watched the lightning cloud from the sky, being wary of Jia Wenhe and Ju Chen. However, two bold 5th-stage experts approached Cao Mao without caring about their presence.

"Hohoho! What do we have here?"

"Well, well, well, that's a lot of lightning Qi. Who is breaking through just now?"

The two masters reached for the lightning cloud, shamelessly trying to steal the tribulation rewards.

Jia Wenhe's heaven-grade cauldron glowed in red light. He opened the lid and pointed the cauldron mouth toward one of the masters.

A thousand liters of fire element essence water from Jia Wenhe's dantian gathered inside the cauldron, condensing into a red cannonball.

Jia Wenhe bellowed the incoming cultivators, "SCRAM, YOU HYENA TRASH!! IF YOU STEAL MY BOY'S TRIBULATION FORTUNE, I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES!!"

Without waiting for the shameless men to react, Jia Wenhe fired the cannonball, which was a thousand times stronger than Xie Tian's dragon fireball.

All five masters sensed the oncoming attack. They flew backward, dodging the flame cannon.

However, the cannonball moved as if it was alive. It chased after one of the shameless masters.

"Impudent!"

The chased victim also summoned a thousand liters of water element from his dantian and created a water shield array. The cannonball rammed onto the shield, but it failed to reach the defender.

In anger, the old man turned toward Jia Wenhe. Without bothering introducing himself, he charged at the alchemist, planning to fight in a close range.

Suddenly, Ju Chen made her moves.

Ju Chen's right eye blackened. It became so dark that no light could reflect her abyss pupil. Jumping from the ground, Ju Chen intercepted the old man. She bared her fangs and sent a palm strike at the water shield.

The old master sneered at Ju Chen since he didn't see the normal palm strike without elemental power as a threat. Thus, the old master cast another water element shield to protect himself while he focused on rushing Jia Wenhe.

Ju Chen smirked. As soon as her palm touched the water shield, she activated her favorite skill.

Vampiric Touch, Life Steal

The water element essence in the shield became Ju Chen's food. Moreover, her palm punctured through the barrier and reached the shoulder of the old man.

That was when Ju Chen revealed her true potential in combat. A seal appeared on the old man's shoulder where her palm had touched.

Blood Extraction

The old man's body shook as his blood suddenly exited him through five orifices and pores. The suction force centered on the seal symbol, which Ju Chen had placed on his shoulder.

Within a second, the 5th-stage old man became a dry mummy as his blood exited his body and became a floating blood mass in the sky.

"YOU HERETIC!!"

The mummy old man hadn't died. He used the last bit of his life force to manipulate his blood essence within the blood mass next to Ju Chen, planning to take the blood back.

But doing so left him wide open to Ju Chen's next move. He forgot to get away from this vampire girl.

Ju Chen's hand was still seizing the old mummy's shoulder. She activated a follow-up skill, which Cao Mao hesitated to use.

Vampiric Touch, Turn Undead

The previous seal symbol moved toward the old man's dantian. Then, it multiplied into 12 seals. All seals separated and moved toward all meridians of the victim.

When two of the seals occupied the old man's heart and brain, he could no longer think straight. Without realizing it, Ju Chen had already wiped his memory clean. The only thing left inside his mind was the hunger for human flesh.

Ju Chen returned half of the old man's blood. As soon as the red fluid reentered his body, the converted ghoul roared and flew toward another 5th-stage master.

"T-THIS HERETIC ART! YOU'RE FROM THE DEMON WORSHIPER CLAN, THE FU CLAN!?"

The three remaining 5th-stage rogue cultivators were well-informed about the power of various major clans, especially the unorthodox side. Since their skills were distinctive and unique, it was easy to recognize.

But before they could run away or tell their friends about their discovery, the middle-aged man, whose strength was at the same level as Jia Wenhe, unleashed his blood element power. The three foundation establishment experts suddenly exploded from the inside.

A similar blood mass, made from the victims' blood, gathered behind the late 6th-stage expert. From a glance, it looked like the same technique.

The undead ghoul rushed toward the 6th-stage master.

However

"Scram!"

The middle-aged man bellowed and released a shockwave. The ghoul paused in mid-air for a moment. Then, he spasmed while his body bloated as if someone pumped gas into his body.

BOOM

The ghoul self-detonated. Blood splattered everywhere, but the droplets never touched the middle-aged man. They gathered around him and merged with the mass of the three previous experts' blood.

Jia Wenhe glared at Ju Chen and the last cultivator. Although he had many questions to ask his daughter about her skills, he ignored the girl's evil techniques and focused on the threat.

That pale-skinned middle-aged man with a goatee was someone Jia Wenhe knew. Jia Shan would also recognize him if he were here. When Wei Huang attacked his sect, this man was there as a reinforcement of the oni lord.

The Mountain Goose City's southern district overlord was here!

"I thought Xu Xiuying failed to raise a vampire. But it turns out that someone else has already mastered that faulty technique. Well, I'm surprised. Bravo!"

Fu De slowly clapped. He snickered while he was floating in the sky, looking down on Jia Wenhe and Ju Chen, "Say, girl. Do you want to be my apprentice? I can teach you the REAL TECHNIQUE that you have just used. It was incomplete, you know?"

Ju Chen didn't reply. Yet, her red eye reacted to Fu De's mockery.

The left eye became as red as blood while her right black eye absorbed all light. Ju Chen was gathering water and blood element Qi, preparing her next attack.

While Ju Chen and Jia Wenhe were preparing to attack Fu De, ten more rogue cultivators flew toward the scene from every direction. None of them were friends since they were from different organizations and places.

When the ten arrived, they noticed the two floating blood mass behind Fu De and Ju Chen. Also, Jia Wenhe's cauldron had warmed up, leaking the air of fire and poison element.

"Two late core pillar experts! Yikes!"

"Two heretic cultivators!?"

"One late core pillar alchemist, one late core pillar heretic, and one foundation establishment heretic. This is no good."

Everyone broke a cold sweat after they realized who was battling. They thought that these three people were fighting to claim the tribulation rewards as well.

Unbeknownst to these newcomers, Jia Wenhe and Fu De got frustrated at the sight of them. They were in the middle of killing each other, and they didn't have time to entertain the new pack of hyenas.

Fu De muttered, "Annoying bastards."

Jia Wenhe clicked his tongue and gave the newcomers a death glare.

On the other hand, Ju Chen licked her lips.

"Food…"
