Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

Chapter 76 – Blood Fox vs Jade Fox

"Why are you looking at her like that?" Mei asked the Blood Fox.

"What am I looking at?" The Blood Fox played innocent.

Mei pressured her with her Soul.

"Ugh..." The Blood Fox winced. "I feel calm around her. There are no voices."

Mei narrowed her eyes. "I see..." 'Some Bloodlines might do that, I should ask my sweetie about her Bloodlines later.' Mei nodded.

"She is still mine, don't get too close." Mei warned the Blood Fox.

"I'm not doing anything." The Blood Fox's robe slid revealing her jade shoulders and plentiful bosom.

Mei glared. 'Should I just rip her chest?'

"Mean Fox." Aiko tip-toed towards Mei.

"I'm not mean!" Mei who already had her feeling thin yelled.

"Yes, you are." Aiko didn't care and showed her the Runes she created. "What do you think?"

The Blood Fox was observing them with interest, she would never imagine that the Jade Fox would be so attentive to someone.

"Is that part of the blueprint?" Mei asked seeing the vibration Runes. "I never asked but what is the massage chair supposed to do?"

"Massage..." The Blood Fox murmured staring at the questionably smart Jade Fox.

Mei shot her a glare.

"Massage." Aiko blinked.

"How is that supposed to massage?" Mei used the vibration Rune on many things, but massages weren't one of them.

Aiko tilted her head. "Relieve muscle pain?" She tried to explain to the best of her abilities, but she didn't know quite well why she wanted that chair. It was just that the chair would be very nice to have.

"Then we need Runes that amplify only certain parts. We can gauge the muscle strain with this and..."

Aiko's Mind steeled itself for the barrage of information, luckily she had a Mind incomparable to before so she was able to take it all in.

...

"You should also add this Rune." Mei continued explaining.

"But I can't string so many Runes, at most I was able to do 3 before it crumbled." Aiko pouted.

"You need to train more if you want that chair." Mei smoothed Aiko's hair. She had a hard time not to play with her large ears.

Aiko nodded. "I will do my best."

She walked away and the Blood Fox and Jade Fox exchanged looks.

"What?" Mei glared at her.

"Nothing." Blood Fox looked away.

Mei was really irritated by the cow tits. She really wanted to tear them off and feed them to her but restrained herself just in case Aiko liked her.

'I don't see what is so amazing about this Fox.' Mei clicked her tongue.

The Blood Fox had a calm temperament and felt less seductive than when she arrived here. This surprised Mei as she couldn't experiment well on Demonic beings in the upper world.

'I might test a few things on her.' Mei thought and returned to her Arrays.

...

Aiko was writing Runes in the dense fog. She had to wave her hands to spread some of the Fog and then go by a feeling, but because of that, she was able to create more elaborate Rune Inscriptions.

'They last longer even without the Qi Gathering Rune.' Aiko smiled. 'But I still need to so I can expand it further. The Qi Gathering Rune stops the Qi flow for a moment before spreading it into the object, but that slight pause also stops other Runes. That is the reason why you need to have the Qi Gathering and Qi Storing Runes as the last ones.' Aiko fiddled with the pen.

Especially some other amplification Runes are very sensitive to the Qi flow. They might break the Inscription if they don't have a steady income of Qi.

'I still don't understand how the Storage Rings and Pouches work...' Aiko frowned. It was difficult to understand.

With Inscriptions, she was able to expand the space, but it consumed so much Qi that it wouldn't be sustainable in the long run, making Storage Rings useless.

'I still need more Runes and a better understanding of Runes.' Aiko thought.

She then looked backwards. 'It's not peaceful in here...'

She stared at her mean Fox who was intimidating Blood Fox with multiple Pills.

'... I wonder if she will push her down...' Aiko had a funny thought, but dispersed it right after. 'I should focus on Runes. I can also feel getting smarter over time and there is less pressure from my desires.'

Aiko was somewhat aware of her changes, but she was unaware that those changes came from her soul recovering.

She created more and more complex Inscriptions. 'I wonder when I can get more tails... it's nice to sit on them... good cushions.' Aiko smiled caressing her tails. She was not as cold as before since those tails were fluffy enough to block the coldness of the floor.

'It's still strange that I can feel cold with 40,000+ Toughness...' Aiko sighed.

Suddenly Mei stormed near Aiko.

"You like me the best right?" Mei had a distressed expression.

'Is there anyone else I should like more?' Aiko tilted her head. 'Maybe the Grandmaster, but she doesn't allow me to sleep on her tails.'

'The Blood Fox has a nice tail, but she doesn't have more so it's a bit difficult to sleep properly.' Aiko thought.

"Yes." Aiko nodded.

"Good, good." Mei exhaled in relief.

"How do I do this?" Aiko pointed at the Runes. She would use this opportunity to learn more.

...

'They are bickering again.' She stared at Mei and the Blood Fox. 'They sway quite nicely...'

Aiko was momentarily distracted. 'I can't think straight when they fight, too many things are squished...' Aiko sighed leaving the courtyard.

The next large courtyard was of the other Foxes.

'They are still fighting...' Aiko stared at the Blazing Fox and Glacial Fox. 'I don't understand why they are always fighting.' Aiko shook her head.

She moved further.

"Ah~ Senior Sister. Yes. Right there."

'Alright, not this place.' Aiko turned around walking away from that place. 'So they either fight or fuck... How am I supposed to rest if I either hear grunts or moans...' Aiko had a headache.

'Let's look outside of this wing.' Aiko stared at the conspicuous gate.

"Are you leaving?" One Peak Elder asked.

"Mm." Aiko hummed. "I can't rest when they are constantly bickering."

The Elder caressed his beard. "It's good to get used to it since you will be doing that later." The Elder advised her.

"I'm good, can I leave." Aiko was not interested in this. She felt no lust, just curiosity.

The Elder sighed. 'What an innocent cub.' "Of course, you can leave, but be careful about the treacherous Humans." He warned her.

"Thank you." Aiko cupped her fists like the others did and left the place.

...

'There is so little Qi.' Aiko looked around. 'That Array must be good.' Aiko praised Mei in her heart.

She didn't notice someone was behind her and grabbed her. She didn't feel threatened so she just looked around as she was being dragged.

"Senior Sister! I have captured one Vixen whore!" The girl was ecstatic.

The other Cultivators looked at her and one beautiful girl came towards Aiko.

'Why are her eyes shining?' Aiko wanted to tilt her head, but couldn't since she was grabbed by the head.

*Slap*

"S-senior Sister?" The girl didn't understand what was happening.

"I'm Bao Ai." The beautiful girl smiled caressing Aiko's hair.

"Why did she drag me here?" Aiko didn't say her name, it was not important, she was just curious.

"This..." Bao Ai was troubled.

"Just let her join us for the time being." The handsome youth shook his head.

"Guo Hai..." Bao Ai was even more troubled.

"What? It's not like she can run." He snorted.

'It feels like I have arrived in front of a bird brain.' Aiko sighed.

"That... you don't mind joining us...?" Bao Ai was distressed.

Aiko looked around. 'They have quite a few Runes around, let's observe for now, it's much more peaceful than that brothel...' Aiko thought nodding.

"Great!" The girl clapped her hands and dragged Aiko between multiple Female Cultivators.

'Why does every Cultivator have a buxom body?' Aiko couldn't understand.

"Kyuaa! She is so cute!" One girl screamed in her heart.
"She has soft and nice hair." Another was already combing her hair.
"Her hands are so tiny!" Another was playing with her fingers.

'Are... all Cultivators this weird?" Aiko stiffened from the attention. Fortunately, she had hidden the second tail otherwise they might play even with that.

"What is the fuss about?" Guo Hai spat.

"Oh shut up, will you? You, sweaty muscle heads smell so bad and pollute the air around, at least let us enjoy this nice Fox." One girl from the group spat on him.

"Heh! You think I won't do anything to you, just because you are fellow Disciple?" Guo Hai snorted.

"You would hurt us." Bao Ai agreed. "But that also means your faction would never obtain our Inscribed tools/clothes." She smirked.

"Ugh!" His face distorted but left them be.

"Ignore that smelly bastard. How are you?" Bao Ai asked.

'Too much sex...' Aiko's inner thoughts almost spilt. "It's bothersome, I want to practice Runes in peace." Aiko spilt the other inner thoughts.

The girls paused. "Y-you practice Runes?!" They were all greatly shocked.

"What Rank are you at? How many Runes do you know? How complex can you make the Inscription?-"

Aiko was assaulted with a barrage of questions and she was overwhelmed by the attention.

...

"She is really good." One girl murmured.
"Her Calligraphy is beautiful." Another girl murmured.
"I wonder if she already has a partner?" Bao Ai murmured.

The others looked at the shameless Bao Ai and frowned.

"Do you think she will like you just because you are [Inscription Adept]?!"
"We saw her first!"
"I will have you know that I'm almost [Inscription Master]!" Bao Ai rebuked them.

"I'm still a cub." Aiko frowned, she had a hard time not cursing them, but this was good training for her because-

[Enhanced Mind: Lv.2->3]

"Y-you are cub?!" One girl screamed.
"There is no way you are a cub!" Another tried to deny reality.
"Her writing is too beautiful... to think she was so young." Bao Ai was the only one who took it well.

'She has talent in Calligraphy and her hands are steady. She will be able to achieve great things if she grows well.' Bao Ai had that silly thought about kidnapping her and raising her as an Inscriptions Cultivator.

Aiko sighed. This place was even more bothersome than that moaning bunch.

She rolled her eyes. "Don't underestimate me!" Aiko growled.

The girls screamed 'Cute' and 'how adorable' among other things.

Aiko felt concerned about her practice time. 'I will just sneak away later.

...

There was a Waning Moon outside.

'It's unfortunate that I can't get both enhancements at the same time.' Aiko stared at the [Shadow Enhancement] and [Lunar Enhancement]. 'Maybe I need to raise them further to be able to work constantly?' Aiko thought.

She stared at the courtyard, the Qi was constantly dropping over time, but it was slow enough that most of these Human Cultivators didn't notice.

Aiko narrowed her eyes. 'Doesn't this mean that I will have to raise that table up in order to create more Runes?' She was concerned that the Qi fog was much higher than previously.

Aiko looked at her body and frowned. 'If this continues doesn't that mean I will be swimming in the fog?'
