299 Cat Dad’s Dao Ability
Chapter 299 – Cat Dad’s Dao Ability
The emergence of skin thieves threw the city into chaos. Pangu cultists, priests, knights, and paladins rushed to the area to subjugate the monsters right away.
Because of the chaos, the guards on the walls were requested to help. More than half of the guards left their posts and helped the people in the large city evacuate from the battle.
Pretty Skins were easy to spot when they were in the middle of eating their victims or wearing a new layer of skin. Because they wore multiple layers of skin, they looked baggy and no longer resembled humans. Moreover, all of them had one annoying trait.
“T-Bag while the corpses are still fresh, GEH!”
They mimicked the last victim’s voice and mocked the dead, insulting the players and the local guards.
The angry guards and players had enough. They took up arms and counterattacked. Over a thousand players threw spells and ranged attacks at them while the stronger town guards confronted the monsters at a closer range.
Pretty Skins stopped eating and looked at the threat. They inspected the levels of the guards.
Pangu Knight, Level 250
Pangu Priest, Level 200
Pangu Cultist, Level 225
The monsters smirked. They were all level 666, which was much higher than the local guards. In addition, their stats were far better because of the dungeon’s perk – All monsters in dungeons were at least twice stronger than field monsters and had ten times more HP.
Instead of trying to steal their skin, all skin-stealing girls ate the skin that they had been wearing and showed their naked bodies to the crowd. Pink gas exuded from their bodies, covering the entire town and blinding the local guards. In addition, everybody in the fog received several abnormal statuses.
DING
<Warning! You have been inflicted with an abnormal status – [Charmed]!>
<Warning! You have been inflicted with an abnormal status – [Paralysis]!>
<Warning! You have been inflicted with an abnormal status – [Estrus]!>
Three deadly status effects stopped all guards and players from moving or reacting to the imposters. They widened their eyes and prayed that someone could free them from this hell.

Xiaomao opened his eyes and chuckled before he gazed at Mir, who was still resting on the same rooftop.
“Had someone told me that dual cultivation can increase my strength this fast, I would have done it ages ago, munya!”
Mir slightly shook her head, “I assume that you like your new cheat, mew.”
“Yes. So much cheating that I couldn’t believe that overlooked this, munya!”
As Xiaomao had been dual-cultivating with Undine and Nymph, he stole their Qi and boosted his Water Element Foundation. In addition, as the clones stopped being hostile to him, Xiaomao changed their age setting and made them stronger.
So far, Xiaomao had been doing it with Undine Level 699 and Nymph Level 699, who were one major stage stronger than him. Because of that, the amount of Life Essence and Water Element Qi Xiaomao managed to obtain was higher and faster.
It took Xiaomao only half a year in the pocket dantian to condense a new Life Essence Sea and strengthen the Water Foundation and Ice Spiritual Roots to the limit. As he couldn’t enhance the Water Element Foundation any further, Xiaomao left the pocket dantian.
“I’ve finished my second Life Essence Sea. Now, let me have a new Dao, munya!”
Mir shook her head, “Too soon. You haven’t learned the usage of your Dao yet, mew.”
“There are other uses, munya?”
“Fool. There is another ability that you should know, mew.”
Mir explained how a 5th stage and a 6th stage fight in battles.
An average 5th-stage cultivator could turn their elemental Qi into a new weapon against their foes. As Elemental Qi was an upgraded version of Life Essence, they produced a more destructive force whenever a cultivator used it as fuel for their spells, techniques, or martial arts. Unfortunately, the Qi was only applicable to spells, techniques, or skills that related to the element. They were not as universal as Life Essence.
Secondly, the Dao of each element made a difference. Xiaomao, who had a strange [Alpha Male] Dao, could not simply summon water to kill foes normally. He needed to explore what this Dao could do first.
Mir warned Xiaomao.
“Because your Dao is weird, your water element Qi will produce an unknown effect if you use it against your enemies, mew. How about I grab some hoodlums down there as a guinea pig to test your Dao, mew?”
Without waiting for Xiaomao’s reply, Mir vanished and returned with an office lady. She shoved her toward Xiaomao.
“Coat your body with aura but use the water element Qi instead of Life Essence, mew! Let your aura touch the girl!”
“…”
Fortunately, Jungwoo was still cultivating in his pocket dimension. Otherwise, he would have thrown a fit.
As for Xiaomao, he didn’t feel like bullying an ordinary woman. He stared at Mir, “Let her go. Don’t just abduct random people, munya! She doesn’t deserve this treatment.”
Mir smirked and lightly slapped the woman, “Look again mew!”
As soon as Mir slapped the woman, her expression was distorted and twisted like an angry demon. Her skin wrinkled and her fangs extended. She yelled at Mir and Xiaomao with a mixed coarse voices of an elderly man and a woman.
“DO YOU REALIZE WHO YOU’RE MESSING WITH?! I’M A SERVANT OF BAAL, ONE OF THE 72 GREAT DEMONS! RELEASE ME AT ONCE AND I’LL GIVE YOU A QUICK DEATH!”
“…”
Xiaomao froze. He turned to Mir and changed his mind, “You know what? This is a nut job. Let me test my power on this fool, munya.”
Mir smirked, but she quickly brought out a teargas mask to cover her head. She also put one on Jungwoo’s face and gestured for Xiaomao to start.
Although Xiaomao wanted to ask her why she put on a teargas mask, he circulated the water element Qi, drawing it from the large iceberg of his pocket dantian. The strand of elemental Qi drastically decreased his body temperature, almost freezing him into an ice statue.
Fortunately, Xiaomao shattered it and expelled it out of his body, commanding the gas to coat his body like an exterior aura and a protective barrier.
However, the aura didn’t only cover his body. It turned into a white fog and quickly expanded, covering the entire rooftop within three seconds.
Xiaomao closed his eyes to check what kind of effects the fog had.
DING
<You have activated the Dao Aura of Alpha Male!>
<Your aura automatically inflicts the following abnormal status effects to all female creatures in your aura range – [Charmed], [Confused], and [Hypnotized]!>
“…”
Xiaomao frowned and opened his eyes. He gazed at the office lady through the white fog. A moment later, he rolled his eyes and sighed.
“Mir, can you bring this thot out of my sight, munya?”
The office lady smiled and winked at Xiaomao, trying to seduce him. Fortunately, as Xiaomao was used to Undine and Nymph’s natural beauty and flawless smooth skin, a middle-aged office lady with a plain look was not his type.
Mir laughed, “I guess you understand what kind of power your Dao can do now, right?”
“Yeah, munya. Legally, it’s questionable. Morally, it’s disgusting!”
“How about personally, mew?”
Xiaomao didn’t answer the question. He coughed and changed the subject, “Let’s deal with this ghost first. What’s next, munya?”
