Sinner of Cultivation World Steals Toxic Female Lead-Chapter 22: The temptation of the zombie crystal
Chapter 22: The temptation of the zombie crystal
Having revealed his secret identity as a practitioner of demonic arts, Shaan surely made the women kneeling below him filled with both awe and fear.
If earlier what they considered Shaan's previous threats of killing them as some trivial joke, now they no longer dare gamble.
In their head, a single notion was revolving- This treacherous guy has already killed hundreds of mortals to blindly raise his strength, how can he let them go?
Since he dared to confront them, if they refused- He would surely silence them.
"Fine, I am willing to obey you."
Lin Mao, the one who was hit the hardest, was the first to break the silence.
Following her lead, both Su Shane'r and Qin Miner meekly nodded their heads.
"Okay, don't resist me as I place restriction slave marks inside your heads."
Getting their confirmation, Shaan wasted no time as he started touching their forehead one by one, planting seals using his demonic aura.
After the completion of the seals, Shaan could feel a vague connection between him and the three women.
He knew as long as he wanted, he could kill any of them remotely with just a single thought in his mind.
"Okay, get up!"
"Now, that everyone is our own people, no need to treat each other badly."
Shaan clapped his hands in appreciation.
Hearing his ridicule, all three could only bury the sorrows deep in their hearts.
They all were stubborn but not that dumb.
One must know when to bend and stretch.
"Obey the master!"
Even if they hated it, for the sake of their life, Lin Mao, Qin Miner and Su Shane'r shouted sincerely.
"See that's how it should be, I have always been reluctant to use violence against women."
Apparently, Shaan knew he was firmly in control of the situation.
"Okay, now that you must be wondering why I recruited you all instead of killing you directly, right?"
"The answer is simple- I need people to sell things for me."
Yes, although it may seem Shaan doesn't want anything in the cultivation world, this perception is completely wrong.
There was too much Shaan wanted- High-Level Cultivation Techniques.
Better talismans, better spatial items, powerful weapons, and excellent means of transport like those big boats that fly in the skies, Shaan's greed really knew no bounds.
But there was a catch: all these things needed spirit stones, the sole energy currency of the cultivation world.
Trading with zombie crystal was too risky, it would completely expose Shaan's whereabouts, at that time, he could only run like some most-wanted criminal.
Under the attentive gaze of all, he took out two milky-shiny pearls from inside his pocket.
"These two pearls are called ancient zombie crystals, it is much better than your spirit stones- it is the foundation of my sacred demonic religion."
From the 45 crystals exchanged from Leona, Shaan had kept these two for an emergency.
The girls, taken by surprise, deeply stared at the so-called zombie crystal in his hand which looked milky white compared to the cyan-coloured spirit stones.
Feeling their distrust, Shaan increased the amplitude of his voice.
"You must know why it is so special, right?"
"Thing is absorbing these has no requirements, basically each zombie crystal has power equal to about thousands of low-level spirit stones, but this raw power is much more refined."

"Because of your physique or cultivation roots restriction, you can only absorb a limited amount of spirit stones to raise your realms until you reach some bottleneck."
Shaan's voice suddenly became secretive.
"Using these zombie crystals you won't face any bottleneck and your strength as well as your realm can keep increasing indefinitely."
This was the latest discovery Shaan had recently made since last time increasing his realm.
Hearing his words, all three women subconsciously gasped.
"You mean if someone has been struck at a bottleneck, then absorbing this thing can help him overcome the barrier with blunt force even if he is a waste?"
Su Shane'r shouted excitedly.
"So you say this magical thing can make even trash soar to the skies?"
Lin Mao added.
"Am I not the best living example?"
Pointing his finger towards himself, Shaan appeared somewhat heroic.
Yes, the girls understood right away- How could this incompetent guy raise his strength all the way from a mere martial artist to the peak of Qi Gathering? This must be the magic of this so-called zombie crystal.
Their eyes seemed to be burning with new emotions.
Shaan knew he still had to do a practical performance, only then they will truly believe him.
He raised his hand toward the quiet Qin Miner,
"You come here, let me demonstrate."
"As we all know, Qin Miner was a person with the worst cultivation roots, her potential was only enough to practise till Qi Gathering's sixth stage. Since then, she has been stuck in the same realm for more than five years and even elders said she has no hope of advancing."
Shaan had long done background research on his former bullies.
Qin Miner felt aggrieved as being used as a test subject, but there was no room for refusal.
With trembling legs, she stood in front of Shaan as he offered her this milky white pearl.
"Now, eat it!"
Hearing his command, she could only bite the bullet and eat this foreign thing.
But the second the zombie crystal entered her mouth, the unprecedented change happened.
A large amount of alien energy started rushing inside her dantian as her aura gradually started skyrocketing.
Under everyone's bewildered eyes, her realm which had been stagnant for more than five years, broke through....
Qi Gathering seventh stage...eight stage.......all the way to the peak of Qi Gathering before stopping for some seconds.
At this point, when everyone felt it was over, Qin Miner's body gave a deep crackling sound like some barrier was forcefully shattered as her aura once again started climbing.
Foundation first stage...second stage, finally it was over.
Everyone including Shaan was dumbfounded, even if he had expected it, the difference was too big.
"I-I have become a second-level foundation expert?"
Qin Miner, the most shocked person, finally managed to utter her disbelief.
