Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

Chapter 335 – Mei tests others

Chapter 335 – Mei tests others

It's already been 2 years since Aiko started to Evolve. It was an absurdly long time, but the reserves of the Spirit Stones and other rare materials were enough to keep her in check.

Mei was quite upset that Aiko had disappeared for such a long time, that she had cultivated out of spite!

'I will spank you later for leaving me alone!' Mei glared towards the mountains, but she was not as upset as she thought. She believed that Aiko was trying her best to get stronger and more powerful, so she shouldn't be too upset about it.

Mei was now on the border of Foundation Establishment, but she would be unable to progress for the time being. The Qi inside her body had to settle down and get used to her body.

She had more than twice the amount of stored Qi inside her body than she had before! It was such a baffling amount that Mei believed that Aiko cheated!

'No, she did cheat.' Mei snorted. She didn't believe for a moment that there was another Fox in Human Form that could surpass her!

'I can compare it to the Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Realm, when it comes to Qi.' Mei clicked her tongue at that insane amount.

'Not to mention my body is also comparable to that same stage, so I pretty much can go against the Peak Stage Foundation Establishment Realm without any issue!' Mei marvelled at that.

'Let's do something about Feifei, so we can surprise Aiko and punish her later.' Mei dangerously narrowed her eyes.

She went outside to find Mei. The Dragon went out cold, so she felt quite alone, but Feifei would be able to fill that hole until Aiko returned.

Feifei was dragged into Mei's place with a red face.

She didn't know what Mei wanted, but this forceful approach excited her.

"W-what can I do for you?" Feifei stuttered since Mei was way too beautiful!

"I will help you control your Bloodlines, so you can appear as a complete Human and transform when you are in danger." Mei said as she narrowed her eyes.

"Your Bloodline is powerful, so it might be possible to turn into a full-fledged Dragon later, but you will still step away from Dragons, since you won't have their Divine Sense." Mei sighed. "But just being able to manifest Dragons' power inside your Human body would be a good thing for you. Most Dragons will like anyone who can assume their form with the energy to boot!" She proclaimed excitedly.

Feifei pouted, feeling like she was betrayed. 'Am I not beautiful enough?' She shook her head.

"You don't want to?" Mei tilted her head.

"Nono, I do want to!" Feifei spoke from her panicked state of mind and immediately nodded to reassure Mei.

"Okay." Mei narrowed her eyes. "If you don't want to do this, we don't have to." She learned to be more gentle to others, which didn't help Feifei's case.

"O-okay!" She was blushing like a young girl during spring.

"Let's start the training then." Mei licked her lips and Feifei shuddered.

...

Mei smacked her lips as Feifei lay on the ground, completely exhausted.

"This turned out quite well. I should do the same with others, but..." Mei narrowed her eyes. Aiko's things were much better than what she had...

'No, should they get it later once they have Human Form?' Mei tilted her head. She got a never-heard-before Manual, so it might be better to wait for them to reach the Human Stage!

'I already know that I can use this in Kitsune Form, even if I never became a full-fledged Kitsune.' Mei narrowed her eyes. This Technique was so profound that she worried she might overthrow the Dao!

'Yeah, let's do it like that.' Mei hummed and went for the twins next.

...

"Am I interrupting something?" Mei smiled gently, but playfully. She caught the Twins in the act and watched until they finished.

They both were blushing red and could not meet Mei's curious eyes.

"Once you calm down, show me your Divine Sense." Mei said slowly. "It's time for you to train in Beast Techniques." She proclaimed.

The due kept blushing for some time, until they finally calmed down.

"Alright." Yuxi sighed, while gently glaring at Mei. Did she have to interrupt them like that?! She didn't have her fill yet!

She demonstrated the strength and capacity of her Divine Sense.

"Now pierce this apple and bring it back." Mei used her Human Cultivation to throw that apple far away.

Yuxi panicked and spread her Divine Sense to skewer the apple.

It was quite a messy hole, but it was passable since she was able to bring it back in 'one' piece.

"You barely pass." Mei nodded. "I will instruct you later on how things work. Wanshu is next."

Mei threw another apple, but the same thing happened.

"???" Mei was completely confused. 'True twins never existed since there would always be minute differences, what the hell did Aiko create?!' Mei shuddered at their possible talent and terrifying cooperation.

'Maybe I should teach them Dual Techniques...' Mei narrowed her eyes. Things like the Twin Dancing Blade, or Ascending Sparrows.

This was a lot more interesting than she expected.

"I will think about this a bit more, since your situation is unique." Mei said seriously.

"Is it?" Yuxi asked gently. She didn't believe that she was all that special...

"Believe me, you will dominate the tournament thanks to you two cooperating." Mei chuckled darkly. "Even the newly Evolved Aiko might have problems..." Mei narrowed her eyes and licked her lips. If she was able to bring the Twins to her side, punishing Aiko would be a simple matter.

Mei left the Twins to their own little games and went for the Blood Fox.

...

"You are still grooming your tails?" Mei narrowed her eyes. "Are you still trying to woo Aiko?"

"Yes, but it's less wooing and more of a begging." The Blood Fox sighed. "Aiko is quite petty when it comes to certain things." She warned Mei.

Mei snorted. "I get it, but you are too weak right now, so I will help you get more tails."

"Why would you do that?" The Blood Fox narrowed her eyes. She was quite on guard against Mei, since her feelings towards Aiko were conflicting and complex.

"Because at this pace you will either die or be contracted." Mei clicked her tongue. "I don't want Aiko to experience anything bad that happened to me." She narrowed her eyes.

"Oh..." The Blood Fox was still wary, but she was also welcoming.

"And you don't have to worry about your current body." Mei sighed. "You will get a complete makeover once Aiko gives you Vitality." She clicked her tongue at that insane drop of Vitality. If Aiko did the same for the Blood Fox, then that would be great!

"You look good, Mei." The Blood Fox gently said.

"Thank you?" Mei was confused, since the Blood Fox was never this gentle.

"You have changed." The Blood Fox said with some puzzlement in her voice.

"I should be the one saying that, what happened to your prickly nature?" Mei chuckled.

"It's still there, but you are too weak to do anything against it." The Blood Fox was against bullying the weak, so she would restrain herself for the time being.

"I also never expected you to spend 2 years on Feifei, just to help her improve." The Blood Fox narrowed her eyes.

"That is only natural, since she is now part of the team and Aiko likes her." Mei sighed.

"You don't mind that Aiko is creating her own little Harem?" The Blood Fox narrowed her eyes.

"She can dream about it." Mei chuckled. "But in the end, it would be me who decides that." She crossed her arms.

The Blood Fox shook her head. "You won't be able to keep Aiko in one place." She warned Mei.

"You think I can't handle her?" Mei raised her eyebrow.

"I think you are underestimating her." The Blood Fox said gently. "Not to mention, you are not ready yet, right?" She smiled innocently.

Mei's face twitched. This was exactly why she didn't like the Blood Fox. She was too smart and could see through her emotions.

"Nothing stops me from starting it." Mei said carelessly, since she didn't want to lose against the Blood Fox.

"That may be so." The Blood Fox said, but then changed the topic. "Why did you come to visit me?" It felt like she was the only one not affected by Mei's beauty.

"Test your Divine Sense so I can see if you should learn Beast Techniques or not." Mei shrugged and pulled out an apple.

Before she could even throw it, the apple floated into the air. It was peeled and cut. The seeds were removed from it before it was placed on a wooden plate.

"Don't waste food. It's enough that Aiko and you eat so much." The Blood Fox sighed like this was a big deal.

Mei's eyes widened. "I never knew you were so skilled in controlling Divine Sense." She thought that she was the best, but that appeared to be her imagination.

"I'm not that skilled." The Blood Fox confessed.

Mei's lips twitched. She wanted to smack the Blood Fox's ass for this comment.

"You can't do anything to me, you are too weak." The Blood Fox chuckled like a Fox.

Mei's body twitched. "That's like the pot calling the kettle black." She glared at the Blood Fox.

"That might be the case. So, what are you waiting for?" The Blood Fox asked.

"You have passed, but I don't really have Techniques specific for Demonic Foxes, since there are not that many in the Immortal World." Mei frowned.

"That is fine. I believe that Aiko can find something for me, or I might also be lucky" The Blood Fox smiled lightly.

"Is that so... Don't you think you have a bit too much faith in Aiko?" Mei asked her with a puzzled expression.

"I like the system. So I believe that Aiko would be able to do something as ridiculous as that, again." The Blood Fox narrowed her eyes. "If that's all, then please leave, I need to comb my tails so that Aiko doesn't get after me again. I can't bear her petty side." She shook her head.

Mei's lips twitched. She was being kicked out instead of leaving on her note. This upset her a bit, but she was not strong enough compared to the Blood Fox, so she could only concede for the time being...
