Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 91: Qi Vein

They have fewer stages, but each one takes a longer time.

MingYue knew this one was a spirit beast since it had intelligence but didn't infuse any element into its attacks.

The cultivation of the beast begins at the spirit stage and then progresses to the Elemental, Core, Mystic, Divine, and Eternal stages.

Creatures at the core stage usually can transform into humanoid forms; the divine stage allows them to turn completely into humans, and in the next stage, Mystic, their beast form will be enhanced even further.

But even though this one is only at the Spirit stage, it doesn't mean MingYue can defeat it easily.

As a beast, it always has more raw strength compared to a human at the same level. And as spirit beasts, they have intelligence.

The creature locks its eyes on MingYue, and just when it wants to retaliate Bang! MingYue already shoots the gun in her hand with maximum power.

Feeling the enormous power coming from it, the creature knows it should dodge. But that is what MingYue targets; with elegance, she moves toward the area where she predicts the snake will arrive.

However, she miscalculates. Bang! Just as she predicted the snake's movement, the snake also predicted hers.

The creature launches its tail to swipe at MingYue, launching her into the air.

Meanwhile, the bullet that MingYue shot hits the creature, but it only grazes its skin since the snake moved.

Boom! The projectile exploded on the ground, making a crater, while MingYue hit a qi crystal on the wall.

MingYue could feel pain all over her body, but it quickly started mending and healing by itself.

Her eyes sharply locked on the beast.

MingYue then starts absorbing the surrounding qi, mixing it with her own and then moves it toward her sword, Twin Frostbites.

The cold qi emanating from her body starts intensifying, creating an icy mist in the surrounding area.

This makes the spirit beast turn alert, feeling the threat from the MingYue attack.

It now only has two choices, attack or escape, but the spirit beast doesn't want to escape; this is the best spot for it to cultivate.

It knows going outside hoping to get a good spot like this will be very hard. Its reptilian eye then gleamed; qi started coming out, strengthening its whole body.

The snake then starts moving, forming its body like a spring. With a swift movement, it launches itself like a rocket, cutting through the air toward MingYue.

With the creature's speed, MingYue knew it would reach her first before she could even unleash her attack.

With annoyance, she slashes her sword in the air, creating many ice projectiles shooting toward the snake.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The ice spikes failed to penetrate the snake, but they served their use to slow the snake down even by a bit.

MingYue kicked the wall behind her and then launched herself toward the snake; in the air, her body moved in motion, her sword dancing in the air, creating streaks of ice from its tip.

Each ice is formed like a petal of an ice flower.

Bang!

They clashed in the middle; the snake beat MingYue in raw force, pushing her back, but since she angled her body as she moved in the air, instead of shooting to the back, she instead got deflected up to the ceiling where water was still pouring, filling out the Qi Crystal mine.

The creature then started maneuvering in the air, crashing into all the ice flower petals that MingYue made. But the petals don't get destroyed; instead, with their small size, they cling to the creature's body.

The creature used its tail to anchor itself to the wall before launching through the air again to attack MingYue, this time its jaw open wide, wanting to eat her whole.

But the moment it moved through the water, as the ice petals made contact with the liquid, they quickly froze all the water.

This created an ice trap blocking the creature from moving forward; it then started struggling, creating creaking sounds on the ice.

MingYue knew it wouldn't hold long; she moved in motion, creating ice with every step she took.

Ice Qi started concentrating only on the sword in her right hand; she then sprinted and threw the sword toward the creature's mouth.

A fox's roar could be heard from the sword as it lunged itself deep inside the snake's body.

"Goraarrr!" The spirit beast cried in pain, but it didn't last long until its stomach bulged and then exploded; an ice lotus came from its stomach with one of MingYue's swords in the middle of it.

MingYue's lips curled into a smile; she then jumped toward the creature's head; despite part of its body already blown off, its reptilian eyes still glared at MingYue with hatred. It's still alive.

MingYue thrust her sword toward its head, but it didn't pierce all the way, only enough until it reached its flesh.

MingYue then spread her ice qi all over the creature, freezing it alive, and took out an awe cube in her hand.

The frozen snake, with all its remains, turned into particles of light disappearing into the awe cube.

"Alex asked me for a living specimen of a spirit beast. I hope it will last until it reaches his hand. Vesa, send it to him."

[Alright, Queen, I am sure it will still be alive when it reaches the King. I just doubt he has a way to heal it.]

"Well, it doesn't matter. I can look for another next time."

MingYue then looked up toward the hole where the water that fell into the Qi mine was now frozen, making an ice pillar with a circular hole in the middle area where the snake had been before.

MingYue used her qi to close the hole to make it more stable.

She then went down to the area where the spirit beast had stayed before.

There, a big Qi crystal that looked like a tree without any leaves and fruits stood tall.
