Chapter 316 – Cat Dad Learns His Weakness

DING

Wei Zhi slightly opened her eyes and looked at the system message. She skimmed through the detail and closed it, not interested in the trivial quest.

Noticing that Wei Zhi stopped absorbing blood Qi from the swamp, Cernun asked about her condition.

“How are you feeling? How many clones have you defeated so far?”

Wei Zhi’s eyes flickered as she remembered how she defeated Wei Feng, Wei Xiong, and Wei Huang’s clones at 200% potential difficulty. She shed a tear of sadness that she didn’t get to learn more from Wei Huang, the man who shared the same face as her father.

“Only three, sir.”

“So, you defeated Wei Yuan’s family already. Did you obtain their memory or their skills?”

“I only got their skills, but I don’t get their memory.”

“No karmic message at all?”

“No, sir. No memory at all.”

Cernun raised his brows, “That’s odd. I clearly remembered that those guys left their wills in their karma. It should have been passed down to you since you’re using the cloned avatar of Wei Yuan. Or…”

Cernun suddenly thought of Xiaomao, who was Wei Yuan’s son. Since he was her son in the other life, the karma might have gone to him instead of staying around for Wei Zhi.

“Oh, damn. I think Xiaomao took the karma.”

Wei Zhi shook her head, “It doesn’t matter. I can get stronger without karma’s help. Let me continue to train. I want to fight Mao Miaomiao’s clone when he was young next.”

“Be careful, though. He’s a pervert. Even if it’s a clone, it will ravish you whenever it has a chance! Set the difficulty at the lowest first and get used to his tactics and skills. He’s crafty, nasty, and unpredictable in combat.”

“I’ll be careful, sir.”

Wei Zhi closed her eyes and sank her consciousness into her pocket dantian.

RUMBLE

Xiaomao lay in his pool of blood, but he was proud of his fight.

Wei Huang’s clone floated in the sky, looking at Xiaomao’s elemental trees on the three foundations.

With 500 meters in height and at least a kilometer in diameter, the tree on the iceberg grew so large that it could be called a world tree. Its silver leaves, branches, and trunk reflected the light, shining like a star.

The pylon crystal was also on par with the ice tree. It transformed into a floating tree of light as its leaves, trunk, and branches were so bright that it hid the entire tree and the pylon crystal core inside. Even Wei Huang could barely see its vague silhouette.

The lotus on the blood element sea also grew as tall as the ice tree, spreading its roots underwater. A billion small lotuses detached from its mother and blossomed as well, transforming the glooming place into a colorful flower sea as the pink flower petals replaced the ominous crimson blood.

Still, the oversized lotus stalk and the massive flower looked as creepy as ever. If someone were to look at it from above, they would have seen a humongous mouth, countless sharp teeth, and human arms inside its mouth.

In each trunk or stalk, a golden core glittered, generating elemental Qi of its nature and refilling the foundation with Blood, Water, and Light Element Qi.

With the elemental Qi generators in his dantian, Xiaomao could be considered a proper 6th-stage cultivator. The next thing he needed was combat experience against his peers.

Xiaomao bitterly laughed and looked at his great-grandfather. This was his 3,200th defeat.

“You’re a strict teacher, gramps.”

Wei Huang smirked, ‘If I don’t go all out, you’ll be spoiled. I’m not going to repeat the same mistake as I did to Xiong’er and Fei’er. I’m going to humble you until you understand how harsh the world of cultivation is!’

“I know. Many big shots have been protecting me. I know my place.”

‘Then, try harder! I will not entrust my memory to you unless you can defeat me for real!’

“Roger that! I’ll beat you next time!”

Xiaomao laughed, and Wei Huang beheaded him with a large energy sword.

“6th stage, you’re growing faster than your father, mew!”

Mir smiled from ear to ear. She was so happy that Xiaomao progressed a lot faster than Mao Miaomiao did when he was a mortal.

That guy spent centuries in his pocket dantian to advance to the 6th stage. Although his combat sense and skillset were superior to Xiaomao, she believed that the son had more potential.

Xiaomao opened his eyes and snapped his fingers. A mass of water appeared in front of him, and he drank them all.

After rehydrating himself, Xiaomao paced his breath and visualized his fights so far.

Wei Huang was resourceful. Sometimes, he summoned an Oni Dao Avatar and utilized a blood domain, which instantly crushed Xiaomao’s heart and exploded his blood instantly. But when Xiaomao used the same power, Wei Huang summoned an elderly swordsman avatar, who simply swung his swords aimlessly, but all his attacks magically cut Xiaomao into pieces.

Wei Xiong also comprehended it but didn’t use it against him. Thus, Xiaomao understood how it worked – That domain allowed all attacks to directly slash, cut, or pierce every target that got inside Wei Huang’s domain even though all attacks physically missed the targets.

In Wei Xiong’s memory, it was called the Sword Domain, which was the signature move of the sword sect that Wei Xiong had joined. Wei Huang and Wei Feng also joined the same sect, but his grandfather was one of the elders there, which enabled him to learn more techniques from the sect.

So far, Xiaomao managed to mimic the sword domain and managed to block some invisible attacks. However, Wei Huang’s superior elemental power bypassed his defense and killed him every time. In addition, Wei Huang used an elemental power that Xiaomao hadn’t mastered yet.

Xiaomao was aware of his shortcoming – He lacked the Metal Element Foundation.

This element enhanced the power, durability, and speed of energy swords and invisible sword domains. Because of that, Xiaomao could never be Wei Huang’s opponent as all strikes from the clone always broke his defenses.

Understanding his shortcoming, Xiaomao knew what he should do next. It was time to upgrade another spiritual root into an elemental foundation.

“Mir, do you know where I can find a metal element Qi, munya?”
