Immortality System: Cultivating with Girls

He tossed it away without a second thought.

MMPH...

Liu Qingdai let out a muffled groan; the demonic Qi was ravaging her from within. She was now even weaker than a mere mortal. Seeing this, she could only close her eyes in agony.

Her Storage Spiritual Tool still held many trump cards, but in her current state, she couldn't retrieve any of them.

"You..."

Wen Zhixing clutched his throat, half-kneeling in front, his eyes nearly splitting with rage.

"Don't worry, I won't let you die now. You won't taste good dead," Xiao Liuzi said, a sinister smile on his face.

WHOOSH!

Several beams of black light shot from Xiao Liuzi's palm, piercing Wen Zhixing's limbs.

PFFT!

In an instant, Wen Zhixing's limbs were crippled, and he collapsed to the ground, paralyzed.

One had to admit, this Corpse Bone Demon was indeed cautious. Even with Wen Zhixing in this state, it didn't lower its guard.

"Alright, he's just a Third Realm cultivator. No need to be so tense. Eat him first. That one's for you, and this one's for me," the shopkeeper urged.

The main reason was that Bai Luqiu and his group had been gone for some time; they couldn't delay any longer. They had finally captured cultivators. They should have savored them thoroughly, but for now, they would eat the two wretched men first.

Liu Qingdai, on the other hand, could be taken away to be savored slowly.

"Yes, Big Brother."

Xiao Liuzi's form flashed, and he manifested a giant black claw that snatched Wen Zhixing.

The ashen, deathly pallor of the dead began to creep onto his face. His eyeballs bulged, almost popping from their sockets. He opened his mouth wide, revealing sharp, green fangs.

His form slowly transformed. He grew taller and thinner, his body ripping through the coarse linen robe he wore.

At this moment, it finally began to reveal its true form.

A cold wind poured in through the open door. It billowed Xiao Liuzi's tattered clothes, revealing a massive, gory hole beneath, from which oozed foul-smelling black blood.

DRIP. DROP. DRIP. DROP.

He was a Corpse Bone Demon, a being formed from the bones of the dead.

At the same time, the shopkeeper's appearance also changed.

His appearance was much like Xiao Liuzi's; his torso and limbs elongated.

However, countless scales rapidly sprouted all over his body. He transformed into a humanoid monster over three meters tall, with black scales covering his body and twin horns on his head.

Clearly, the shopkeeper was stronger; his body had undergone a further transformation.

"Hehe, it's been so long since I've eaten a cultivator. I wonder what one tastes like."

Xiao Liuzi held Wen Zhixing high, his mouth stretching wider and wider, clearly intending to swallow him whole.

"Mind Capturing Skill!"

Just then, Wen Zhixing, who had seemed on the brink of death, suddenly snapped open his eyes, a terrifying glint flashing within!

It was his Divine Consciousness Power, transformed into lightning.

The Mind Capturing Skill could seize a target's mind, dazing them or even temporarily controlling their consciousness.

He had been waiting for this opportunity.

The strength of these two Corpse Bone Demons was far from weak. To subdue Liu Qingdai so easily, they must be above the Fourth Realm.

Even if Wen Zhixing hadn't been weakened, he wouldn't have dared to act recklessly.

The Corpse Bone Demons' methods were truly vicious and ruthless. He wasn't confident he could rescue Liu Qingdai unscathed in a direct confrontation.

BUZZ!

Xiao Liuzi's gaze met Wen Zhixing's. The next moment, his body stiffened.

The light in his eyes abruptly vanished.

Though they were both Fourth Realm, Wen Zhixing's spiritual sense cultivation could overwhelm any peer in the same realm.

"Do it!"

Wen Zhixing roared again. The Sword Pill leaped from his Sea of Qi, and a crimson light surged skyward as blood-red sword wind howled and spun in midair!

SPLAT!

The Corpse Bone Demon's head soared into the sky, spraying foul blood and leaving a headless corpse behind.

Wen Zhixing didn't pause. His figure flickered to Liu Qingdai's side, and he tucked her under his arm, whisking her away.

Xiao Liuzi isn't dead yet. I need to get Liu Qingdai to safety first.

"Damn it!"

The shopkeeper's expression instantly froze.

Everything had happened too quickly; he hadn't even had time to react.

"Die!"

The Corpse Bone Demon roared furiously. It opened its terrifying maw, and a deep shriek erupted from within as it prepared to give chase.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Tiancheng, who had been lying limp, suddenly straightened and broke free from its grasp.

His broken limbs clicked back into place, and his hands transformed into blades, stabbing directly at the shopkeeper's chest!

"Huh?"

The shopkeeper's eyes flashed with shock.

How could this be? I broke this person's limbs, and demonic Qi has already invaded his body. How can he still move?

Wen Zhixing had allowed Zhang Tiancheng to be captured precisely for this moment—the key was the element of surprise.

CLANG!

However, Zhang Tiancheng's strike only shattered a layer of black scales on the Corpse Bone Demon.

Damn!

Zhang Tiancheng's heart lurched. He quickly retreated.

This Corpse Bone Demon is stronger than I imagined!

"Die!"

The monster let out an inhuman roar and then suddenly pounced toward Zhang Tiancheng.

A cold glint flashed across the sky.

The Corpse Bone Demon thrust out its claws in mid-air, its scale-covered fingers aiming straight for Zhang Tiancheng's throat.

Its speed was extreme; it was about to catch him in an instant.

The sound of rushing air assaulted his ears. Zhang Tiancheng showed no fear; instead, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

Dodging to the side, his right hand simultaneously reached for his Storage Belt. He drew a broadsword that flickered with a cold light and twisted his body to swing it.

SHRAANG!

Sparks flew, and the harsh sound of metal scraping against metal rang out. The collision of blade and claw sent countless golden sparks flying.

So strong!

Zhang Tiancheng's pupils dilated slightly. This broadsword was a Spiritual Instrument given to him by Mu Yunqing.

It can't even sever the Corpse Bone Demon's claws!

What a formidable physique!

His Puppet Body was also known for its physical resilience, but the difference was stark in comparison.

It couldn't be helped. Zhang Tiancheng's original physical foundation was poor, and this Puppet Body hadn't been properly refined. Otherwise, his puppet's physique wouldn't be inferior to this Corpse Bone Demon's.

"Die!"

The Corpse Bone Demon roared once more, its human consciousness clearly beginning to fade.

It was descending into a berserk state.

Zhang Tiancheng knew he was outmatched and tried to retreat again, but several sharp claws slashed across his body.

SQUELCH!

Zhang Tiancheng was sent flying!

"AAARGH!"

Xiao Liuzi, whose head Wen Zhixing had lopped off earlier, now reattached it. His voice was a horrific and distorted shriek. "I'll kill you all!"

They had thought they were dealing with mere muggles. Little did they expect to be outmaneuvered in the end!

The prize was snatched from right under my nose! How can I tolerate this?!

WHOOSH!

Several beams of black light shot forth again!

Zhang Tiancheng's body convulsed violently as if he were a living target being riddled with holes.

Then the shopkeeper suddenly appeared out of the void, slamming a palm down with immense force!

THUMP!

The next moment, Zhang Tiancheng plummeted to the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.

SPLUTTER!

Zhang Tiancheng spat out blood, all his bones shattered by the impact.

Am I going to die?

Zhang Tiancheng's eyes were bloodshot, his vision blurring.

For some reason, the thought of death didn't stir much within him. In his current state, there was little difference between being dead or alive.

However, just then, an image of another person surfaced in his memory. The figure was blurry, and everything related to him felt chaotic, as if I had deliberately suppressed those memories.

Wang Shouzhen's swordsmanship... it really resembles that person's...

Lost in the haze of memory, Zhang Tiancheng couldn't help but smile faintly.

...

"Damn it! They're hurting my brother!"

Just then, Wen Zhixing charged back into the fray. Seeing the scene, he bellowed angrily, "Kill!"

A furious roar echoed.

Wen Zhixing gripped his sword in one hand, his brows furrowed in anger. His ferocious aura surged like a mountain-crushing tsunami.

Now that Liu Qingdai was out of harm's way, he no longer needed to hold back!

"He's back!"

Seeing Wen Zhixing return, a gleam of delight appeared in the eyes of both Corpse Bone Demons.

Such deep brotherly love! Then you can die together!

"Despicable human, you dared to trick me!" Xiao Liuzi, now resembling a savage demon, furiously charged.

"Get lost!"

Wen Zhixing roared furiously and swung his sword in a horizontal slash!

BOOM!

The charging Corpse Bone Demon was sent flying by the sword strike, smashing directly into the wall!

CRACK!

The inn's already flimsy walls were blasted through, sending splinters of stone and wood flying in all directions.
