The system's description clearly states that both parties can benefit from cultivation, and this is indeed the case. Qi Qiao's cultivation is recovering, so where does the claim that I stole her cultivation come from?

This is to control one's own words!

He immediately recognized her, then quickly put on a look of fear and shame, turning to look at Qi Qiao: "How could this be—I am but a mortal, I truly did not know that I had harmed her!"

The zombie bride remained motionless and silent, simply listening quietly with her head down.

Then, he heard You Wensi continue, "Although your reckless behavior has greatly damaged Qiao'er's health, if you are willing to be a good son-in-law and treat her sincerely, you will still reap the benefits in the future."

You're still lying to me!

Yun Chu'an sneered inwardly. If it weren't for the system, he, a mortal who knew nothing about the path of cultivation, would probably have fallen into her trap.

He quickly put on a look of trepidation and nodded repeatedly: "This is what I owe her. I will definitely treat her well from now on and never let her down!"

You Wensi nodded, then said, "Zhu Yunqing, go about your business. Yun Chuan, I'm going to teach you the cultivation incantation now, you must remember it well!"

Zhu Yunqing responded and turned to leave. Yun Chu'an looked up and nodded repeatedly. Then, You Wensi began to recite the incantation.

He listened intently, his eyes unblinking, as he memorized the text. In his past life, he had been a top student in a small town, so memorizing texts was naturally effortless for him.

Time ticked by, and the moon gradually climbed to its zenith. Finally, the system notification sounded:

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the cultivation technique 'Pure Yang Skill (Incomplete)'."

Chapter 7 System Task Release

incomplete?

What I practiced was not the complete technique?

Yun Chu'an was filled with doubt and suspicion, and many guesses arose in his mind.

Was it because I mispronounced some of the incantation, or was it because this woman didn't teach me the complete technique?

He cautiously looked up and saw You Wensi standing there silently, saying nothing. He couldn't see her face, but he could feel that her eyes, like cold steel knives, were pressed against his neck, as if ready to tear him to pieces at any moment.

He dared not say more and quickly lowered his head again, adopting a submissive posture: "Grandma, it seems that I have already mastered it?"

You Wensi stared at him without saying a word, leaving Yun Chuan puzzled as to what she was thinking.

After a long silence, she slowly nodded and said, "Let's leave it at that for now. You had no foundation before and knew nothing about the path of cultivation. You have only gained cultivation by chance, so we can't ask for much more."

"From now on, you must remain humble, learn with an open mind, and strive to cultivate yourself. Of course, you must remember her kindness. Everything you have is given to you by Qi Qiao, so don't let her down."

Yun Chu'an immediately bowed his head, feigning gratitude: "This disciple will."

Having said all that, he was fairly certain that the cultivation technique he was practicing was one that You Wensi had deliberately not taught him completely, and that this was the effect she wanted to achieve.

Otherwise, if she had missed some key instructions, she would definitely not have been able to master this technique, and even if she had, she would surely have been able to spot the omissions and errors.

A feeling of resentment instantly filled his chest, yet he couldn't express it. His opponent's strength far surpassed his own; his life and death were entirely in the opponent's hands, and he had no control over his own destiny.

Be patient, be patient for now.

In the future, I will take all of this back!

He made a firm resolution and vow in his heart, and just then, the system's voice sounded: [Ding, detected that the host has mastered cultivation techniques, triggering the long-term mission 'Demon Clan Chief'.]

Accompanied by an electronically synthesized prompt, the pale blue screen in front of him changed, and a brand-new task interface appeared before his eyes.

[Demon Clan Chief]

[Mission Description: After being taught an incomplete martial arts technique, you realize that Granny Huaishan likely has ulterior motives towards you. Subservience will never bring true safety and freedom; only by wielding supreme power and becoming the clan leader can you control your own destiny.]

[Mission Objective: To gain the sincere submission of all important members of the clan and become the patriarch of the Huai Mountain demon cultivator clan.]

[Quest Reward: Celestial Spirit Root]

Looking at the task panel in front of him, he was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected that this system would have functions that he hadn't fully developed.

When he saw the "Heavenly Spiritual Root" reward, he was even more shocked. The highest talent, the Heavenly Spiritual Root, which countless cultivators in the cultivation world dreamed of but could not obtain, was actually placed right in front of him!

However, even without this task, I would definitely have done it.

To overthrow You Wensi, replace her, and become the leader here.

It's a long story, but in reality, it all happened in just a few seconds. Granny Huaishan had no idea how much the man in front of her, whom she could crush with a flick of her wrist, had changed.

"That's enough for today. Review the incantations a few more times, then take a rest." After saying this, You Wensi's body turned into a wisp of black smoke and drifted out the door, quickly disappearing from sight.

Yun Chu'an held his breath and focused intently, not daring to relax for a moment. He wasn't sure if the old hag had really left, or if she was hiding in the shadows, secretly observing his condition.

He tried to appear natural, as if everything was normal, but his seemingly normal expression didn't last three seconds before a sudden, intense hunger pang shot through his stomach, making him look quite uncomfortable.

There was no one else in the room. With a pained expression, he turned to Qi Qiao, the only person there, and asked, "Is there anything to eat here?"

He hadn't eaten anything for a day and a night. He had already gotten over the hunger while he was locked up in the prison, and with the protection of spiritual energy, he didn't feel so hungry for a while.

Now, after all this commotion, the spiritual energy within his body began to circulate again, and his stomach started to move again, and a strong hunger began to urge him on.

Opposite him, his zombie bride still had her eyes closed, her arms outstretched forward, her slender white fingers pointing at him, yet their beauty was undeniable.

Although she didn't speak much, she seemed to understand him. Then, the zombie turned around and hopped towards the door.

She is incredibly fast, leaping four or five meters in a single bound, far exceeding the human world record.

Yun Chu'an was startled and quickly followed, saying, "Wait a minute, wait for me!"

With that one step, he immediately discovered that even though he was hungry, he felt as light as a feather, covering two or three meters in a single stride, as if he were strolling leisurely, without expending any effort at all!

For a moment, he looked quite surprised, feeling as if his body was so light it didn't feel like his own. He was even afraid that he would bump into a doorpost.

He rushed out of the room, and the door opened automatically, bringing the two of them onto the street.

This was a long, straight road with no turns. Qi Qiao skipped forward without a care, and Yun Chu'an followed behind, running wildly.

The rooms on both sides rushed past rapidly, and a gust of wind howled in front of him. Yun Chu'an was surprised. He felt that his speed was simply outrageous. In his previous life, he would probably have easily left behind those world champion sprinters!

And this is only his physical strength. He has not yet circulated the spiritual power within his body, nor has he used these special powers to give himself any boost!

Is this... the enhancement that supernatural abilities have given to my body?

He was filled with shock, and then he couldn't help but start to estimate just how strong he really was.

And what kind of cultivation level do those mountain bandits who can shatter rocks the size of stone rollers possess?

He felt a surge of excitement and decided that if he had the chance, he would definitely test his current fighting prowess.

While he was pondering, the man and the zombie had already rushed out of the town and into the mountains and forests. Soon, Qi Qiao stopped under a few wild pear trees, standing there quietly without saying much, but the meaning was clear: this was the food she had brought him to find.

Yun Chu'an scratched his head, wondering if eating pears on an empty stomach would irritate his stomach and cause diarrhea. But then he thought that he was now a cultivator and his stomach shouldn't be that weak. So he took a leap and easily jumped to a height of four or five meters in the air. The height surprised even himself.

He reached out and grabbed a branch, jumped up, picked a wild pear, and without even bothering to peel it, took a big bite, chewed it a couple of times, and swallowed it whole.

The sweet taste blossomed between his lips and teeth, and for a moment, he felt as if he had been brought back to life, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.

He ate five wild pears, each bigger than his two fists, in one go before he could barely fill his stomach. During this time, Qi Qiao waited quietly under the tree for him, without saying a word, like a dutiful little wife waiting for her husband to come down.

After eating his fill, Yun Chuan felt fully recharged. He clapped his hands, glanced around, and couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

He soon spotted a rocky outcrop not far away, about the size of a millstone, which seemed like a good target.

Immediately, he leaped down from the tree, covering another ten meters.

He took two steps, walked to the rock, thought for a moment, and then silently recited the incantation of the Pure Yang Technique, circulating the spiritual energy within his body and gathering it in his right fist. After charging up for a few seconds, he suddenly threw a punch—

boom--!

When his fist struck the stubborn rock, a massive amount of energy exploded, and the millstone-sized rock shattered into pieces in an instant, with countless pebbles flying in all directions, becoming completely broken.

However, Yun Chu'an's expression was not one of surprise; on the contrary, his expression suddenly turned painful as he clutched his fist and gasped for breath.

pain!

It hurts so much!

He didn't understand any fist techniques that involved mobilizing spiritual energy. He had to protect himself while unleashing his power, so when he threw a punch, although he shattered the boulder, he also injured the enemy a thousand times while losing eight hundred of his own strength!

He was in excruciating pain, but there was nothing he could do but circulate his spiritual energy and wait for the injury to heal naturally.

Behind him, a series of rapid jumping sounds came, and Qi Qiao also came to his side. Looking at the wound on his fist, the zombie girl seemed extremely anxious, jumping around him, but she was also helpless.

Seeing her anxious expression, Yun Chuan used his internal energy to heal himself while comforting her, "Don't worry, it will be fine on its own in a while."

His words finally calmed the girl down. Although her eyes were closed, Yun Chu'an could feel that her gaze remained fixed on his wound, never leaving it.

This concern warmed his heart. After so many days in this world, finally someone genuinely cared about his situation.

Although she is a zombie and cannot even speak, and even last night she planned to kill herself.

But at least for now, she should be the only ally he can trust in this world.

Chapter 8 Dual Cultivation and Flaws

As he thought this, Yun Chu'an's hand wound gradually healed. Qi Qiao's anxiety also dissipated, leaving almost nothing.

However, the zombie girl wasn't idle either. She then moved closer to him, bouncing slightly against his body, so that her slender body rubbed against him.

Yun Chuan had just finished eating and was full of energy when suddenly a beautiful girl pressed herself against him, rubbing against his body. Instantly, the fire of a young man surged within him.

He couldn't resist putting his arm around the girl's waist and gently stroking her skin through her thin clothes. But after moving her a couple of times, his gaze swept around and he felt it wasn't a good idea: "Let's go back and come back later."

This is in the wild! Newlyweds having sex with a female zombie in the middle of nowhere? That's too exciting! At least with Yun Chu'an's current courage, he wouldn't dare to do it. It's better to go back and think about it later.

Qi Qiao didn't say anything and obediently followed him back. Before long, they returned to Qi Qiao's room.

The coffin she was sleeping in was now open, and the girl skipped over to it, gesturing for him to come in quickly.

Yun Chu'an looked at the coffin and felt a little unhappy. He thought to himself, "Am I, a living person, going to have to sleep in a coffin forever?"

Forget it, I'll just have to bear with it for now. When my cultivation level is higher in the future, things will definitely turn around.

He then jumped into the coffin, and Qi Qiao followed. The coffin lid was lifted by a mysterious force and flew up automatically, closing on top of the coffin, plunging the inside of the coffin into complete darkness once more.

As soon as he entered, Qi Qiao eagerly began to undress him, while kissing his cheek. Although her movements were stiff and awkward, Yun Chu'an did not feel uncomfortable at all that such a beautiful girl was being so affectionate with him. Instead, he found it quite adorable.

He responded to the woman's kiss, and with his hands he unbuttoned her clothes, reaching inside to touch her bodice.

His large hand slipped inside her bodice, caressing her delicate skin. Although Qi Qiao was a zombie, her stiffness was only evident in her joints; her body, though cold, felt like jade bones and ice skin, making him unable to put it down.

He caressed them, and their clothes were quickly removed, leaving them naked and pressed together. Yun Chu'an quickly prepared himself, embracing his bride. He rolled over and pinned her beneath him, gently thrusting his hips forward. Man and woman, yin and yang, life and death, were united.

The surrounding spiritual energy began to surge, and dual cultivation was more efficient than single cultivation. At this moment, he was no longer an ordinary person without any cultivation. He silently recited the incantation of the Pure Yang Technique, and the fiery spiritual energy within his body began to circulate.

His waist moved, and the icy, yin-type death energy began to enter his body, intertwining with the fiery, pure yang energy, stimulating and complementing each other, thus becoming even more fiery and vigorous.

His body was thus alternating between hot and cold, as if he were experiencing nine levels of ice and fire, which he found irresistible.

However, he could clearly feel that there was a place on his body that was completely different from the rest.

That was the lower part of his back, roughly a distance above his tailbone. The temperature there was different from the rest of his body; the temperature changes there always lagged behind.

When he and Qi Qiao practiced dual cultivation, and the Yin spiritual energy entered his body, he felt cold, but that place was still hot; after he circulated the Pure Yang Skill for a full cycle and his body became active and hot again, that place became a place where Yin spiritual energy gathered again, and it was slow to be completely transformed.

Because of the existence of this place, his cultivation was always slightly off, greatly reducing the efficiency of his dual cultivation.

Finally, at the end of the dual cultivation, as Qi Qiao suddenly opened her mouth and let out a melodious sound, Yun Chu'an also released inside her.

He lay down feeling relaxed, enjoying the coolness of his lower body, but his mind remained clear.

Is that area where the technique's flaws lie?

No, this kind of cultivation is inefficient, and continuing will only waste my time.

We must find a way to obtain the complete cultivation method.

However, the system's existence cannot be exposed yet; we need to find a way to create an accident...

He thought about it, but for a moment he had no clue what to do. Qi Qiao nestled in his arms, quiet and motionless. After a while, weariness also came over him. Yun Chu'an stopped thinking, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, early in the morning.

Yun Chu'an got up alone, intending to get something to eat to fill his stomach. Qi Qiao did not get up with him. As a zombie, she was mainly active at night, and it was inconvenient for her to be exposed to sunlight during the day, at least given her cultivation level.

Therefore, Yun Chuan, who can barely maintain a normal human routine, has no choice but to act alone.

A thin mist shrouded the mountains in the early morning. The town appeared to have many brick and tile houses, but it was eerily quiet, devoid of any human presence or sound, like a ghost town, which was truly terrifying.

Compared to this tranquil environment, Yun Chu'an suddenly began to miss Qi Qiao, who had been bouncing around him last night. Although she was a zombie, unable to speak and with limited movement, her presence gave him a sense of life and vitality.

As he walked out of the town alone, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by and landed at a distant intersection, like a ghost, making his hair stand on end.

He quickly turned his head and looked over there, and saw a familiar figure standing there. It was none other than the Spider Demon Fourth Sister, Zhu Yunqing, who had come to the cell to take him away last night.
