Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System
Chapter 110: Young Master = Guaranteed Sucesss!

Alex chuckled, "You mean when the character ponders over the dao? Of course not, don't worry. But you should get the gist, right?"

"What gist? The only thing I learned from those stories is to replace a young master.

They may make your life hard or inconvenient at first, but afterward, the protagonist will always become stronger.

If a young master cripples you, that means it's just a matter of time until you get a cheat or replace treasure to raise your cultivation.

If a young master seeks your lover, that means you will instead meet a new one soon.

All of the story revolves around young masters. I'm honestly sure that without young masters, all these protagonists would just become average cultivators in this story.

Everything they achieve comes after meeting these young masters.

If I ever enter a world like this, I will just replace these young masters; the key is always to become their enemy and avoid becoming their follower since all their followers almost always end up dead or miserable."

Alex was stupefied by Quartz's words; he wanted to say it's not because some stories also have the characters pass through many hardships before growing stronger, but now that he thinks of it, these hardships often come from these young masters in one way or another.

Even replaceing hidden secret realms or some cultivator's secret treasure, all starts from those.

'At this point, we might as well call it the young master system. Maybe I should write that kind of novel if I have time. It seems funny,' he thought to himself.

With a sigh, he then added, "That is not what I meant. But the qi and how it's used basically transforms our existence starting from the body, then the soul, and we will get stronger then."

"So, how do I go to the next step? We are now only at the first level. You should have the method to grow further."

"I do, but it's still in the experimental stage. I need to make sure there are no complications before I give it to you."

Quartz frowned; with a stern tone, she said, "I understand the method comes from you, and you can decide how you give it to others, but Alex, don't make the decision for me.

Since you need to experiment with it, I volunteer. And before you tell me it's very dangerous, believe me, I know the risk, Alex. But we need to get stronger as fast as possible so we can help your mother bring back your father."

Alex looked at Emily and Olivia, hoping they would say something to change Quartz's mind, but from their gaze, Alex knew they also felt the same. Alex didn't even need to ask; he was sure Zold would think the same too.

He has tried the cultivation method for the goblin; so far, there are no problems, and their progress is fast. The strongest among them is Patricia; she has already reached Core Formation realm.

The other high goblins have reached the late stage of Foundation realm. As for the normal goblins, their progression is slower.

Alex thinks this is because of the difference in their body stature; their cultivation varies between the early and mid-stage of the Foundation realm.

Respecting their determination, Alex then started explaining how it worked, but Quartz cut him off, telling him to spare them the technical details and get to the point.

With a sigh, Alex said, "I am trying to modify it by implementing Mana into the mix, so in the end, we can use both and also enhance our abilities with cultivation just like secret techniques."

"Secret techniques… Now that you say it, do you have one we can learn?" Olivia asked.

As a healer, her ability for direct combat is very weak, even though she never says it; every time she fights with her comrades, she always feels like she is a burden.

Even with all the training she does to dodge enemy attacks and escape, it's still not enough.

"I have a few, but if it's suitable or not depends on what you need. I am looking for one that can control the light element for Emily to use, but MingYue told me she never heard of a cultivator using the light element."

"Then make me one, brother, and while you are at it, I want something that can be used with a sword," Emily said with an excited voice.

He then looked toward Quartz and Olivia, silently asking what they wanted.

"Anything that can boost my defense is fine. You have seen I use a shield and sword, but if possible, I want to use only the shield and somehow use it as a weapon, too."

On their way here, they fought a few monsters. The first one they met was a group of giant scorpions. Alex's style was fighting forward with a hammer. Emily shoots using her gun from a distance while Olivia stays in the middle to heal them.

She still needed to move and see each party's position since, to heal, she needed to be at a close distance. As for Quartz, she usually acted as a personal meat shield for Olivia, but since they have no tank now, she acted the part. She moved forward, using her skill to taunt all the monsters while Alex attacked them.

Zold then would follow to finish any enemy that they missed. Zold was using two daggers as his weapons, with his lightning ability; each attack paralyzed the enemy while destroying them from within, almost like a poison.

For Zold, Alex would need a secret technique focused on assassination and lightning elements.

As for Quartz, since she wanted defense. He is thinking of elements like earth, metal, or something similar.

The problem is the weapon; as per his knowledge, no one uses a shield in the cultivation world. He doesn't need to ask MingYue about this; every cultivator uses their Qi to create a defensive barrier, so there is no need for a shield.
