Online Cultivator

Consuming the Spider Monster Core

Many minutes had passed since the middle-aged man rushed into the Silent Cave of Demon Spiders to search for his daughter.

Meanwhile, Yuan and Xiao Hua were waiting for him outside.

'I wonder how much Qi I will obtain by consuming the Demon Spider monster core.' Yuan thought inwardly with the shiny monster core in his hand, preparing to put it in his mouth like eating hard candy.

When Xiao Hua noticed Yuan staring at the Demon Spider monster core with coveting eyes, he asked him, "Brother Yuan, are you going to eat the monster core...? Although Brother Yuan could eat Spirit Apprentice level monster cores without any problem, Xiao Hua was worried that the Spirit Warrior level monster core might contain too much Qi for you to consume..."

"We won't know that until I try, right?" said Yuan.

"That's true, but ..." Xiao Hua still had a worried expression.

Yuan then said with a confident smile, "Don't worry, Xiao Hua. I believe in my stomach!"

"But Qi goes into your dantian, not your stomach, Brother Yuan... It's not food, after all." Xiao Hua said to him with a dumbfounded face.

"What difference?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Dantians are the source of power of every Cultivator and where you store your Qi. Without it, one could not cultivate Qi. And any damage done to one's Dantian was extremely difficult to heal, that's why every Cultivator took care of their Dantian more than their own life. because they'd rather die than live life as a cripple." Xiao Hua explained to him the importance of one's dantian.

"If one cannot cultivate, they are considered to be disabled in this world? And people would rather die than live as 'defects'? That's bullshit!" Yuan looked at him with wide eyes filled with disbelief, even feeling a little angry at the Cultivator.

As a cripple himself, Yuan couldn't help but feel offended hearing that Cultivators would rather die than be 'disfigured'. In fact, he did not even consider a person who could not cultivate as a cripple, even considering him to be extremely disrespectful.

"So what if one can't cultivate? That doesn't mean they have to die! These Cultivators were truly living a luxurious life, worrying about such trivial matters!" Yuan breathed out loudly.

"..." - ".Xiao Hua was silent.

Although it might not be important to Yuan growing up in a world without cultivation and in a relatively peaceful world, in the cultivation world, whether one could cultivate or not was a matter of life or death, either, because if one was unable to cultivate they would remain weak forever and would eventually be consumed by a stronger person who could cultivate.

'Sister Yuan might not understand the importance of cultivation right now, but once he grew stronger and experienced more cultivation worlds, he would see the true ugliness of this world.' Xiao Hua pondered to himself.

And while Xiao Hua was thinking to himself, Yuan threw the monster core into his mouth.

"Brother Yuan!" Xiao Hua's heart skipped a beat after seeing this. No matter how many times he watched Yuan eat the monster core, he could not get used to such abnormal scenery and would always feel nervous afterward.

"Calm down, Xiao Hua. I'm fine." Yuan said to her while enjoying the sweet taste in her mouth. Just like the Spirit Apprentice level monster core, the Demon Spider monster core melted into a sweet substance when it touched its tongue.

After swallowing the Demon Spider monster core, Yuan could feel a great power growing from within his body, causing his aura and cultivation to skyrocket.

"B-B-Brother Yuan .. you .. you ..." Xiao Hua glared at him with a terrified expression, as he had never seen anyone increase their cultivation three levels in one breath.

"seen? I'm fine even after eating the monster core." Yuan said to him afterwards with a bright smile on his face.

'What is going on?! How can Brother Yuan improve his cultivation level as easily as breathing? Could he be the reincarnation of a God of cultivation?!' Xiao Hua cried inwardly.

However, Yuan obtained more than just Qi from consuming the Demon Spider monster core, as his Heaven's Path Refining Physique was suddenly reactivated.

"Xiao Hua, I also gained some resistance to poison after consuming the monster core, but this has never happened before." Yuan decided to ask him, who was still trying to recover from his previous shock.

"Brother Yuan, what did you just say ...?" Xiao Hua asked him with a puzzled face.

that I gained some poison resistance after consuming the monster core? Yuan repeated himself.

"Th-That's impossible!" Xiao Hua quickly shook his head, and he continued to speak in a surprised voice, "Xiao Hua has never heard of someone getting anything other than Qi from consuming monster cores before!"

Yuan casually shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is a saying that says that there is always a first time in everything."

However, Xiao Hua was unsure, as this would be an unprecedented event in the cultivation world that had existed for countless millions of years!

'No. There is a story in the Upper Sky that mentions someone who has similar abilities.but it is only a legend from ancient times...'
