Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

Standing in front of the approaching tide of beasts, this empress-like beauty, Hua Xian’er, merely looks straight ahead as she brandishes her favored weapon, a plain sword that seems to be way too average for an exceptional lady like her, however, as far as she is concerned, this is a weapon made perfectly for her, a weapon that has been her companion for years.

“This is probably a great chance to practice that compression thing that Xiaotian thought us…” she mutters with a confident smile on her gorgeous face as she takes a martial stance, pointing the tip of her sword towards the quickly approaching beasts, her eyes containing an unshakable calm as if she enters a certain state of mind, making the aura coming out of her completely different from how she usually is.

‘Let’s not use [Nature Projection] with this technique…’ she thought to herself as the sword in front of her started glowing a golden light, a divine aura coming out of it as if the heavens themselves start descending in order for her to perform this attack of hers.

‘He told me to just layer it right, then this should work…’ as she continues trying her best to mimic the fluidity of the technique that her lover performs for them, Hua Xian’er starts finding a more suitable path for herself as she experiments with the sword more, her mind rushing through multiple ideas within the span of a split second making her surrounding appear to be moving in such slow manner that she thought that time stops.

While it doesn’t really work to that extent given that her own body can barely move as well, she finds this state really suitable for the thing she is trying to accomplish, allowing her to focus more on the technique she is trying to derive from Su Xiaotian’s compression, a technique that will make this method truly hers as well.

Despite her usual sloppy manner except for when she is refining alchemical pills, Hua Xian’er shows an unparalleled sublimity in terms of the control she has over her entire body right now, her muscles moving perfectly according to her will, her soul power efficiently aiding the movement of both her physical body and the spirit qi circulating all over it, creating a harmonious cycle of the trinity composing her entire self.

As she continues getting the hang of this cycle, she starts noticing the changes happening to herself, first, the extremely loud and powerful beating of her heart, produces a sound that seems to deter even those ferocious beasts who previously only thought of charging toward her, this feeling accompanied with the sudden rush of might empowering her entire body.

While all of these are happening inside her body, her external appearance gradually changes as well, her almond-colored iris starting to change into a brighter hue of red, and her long black hair gradually changes into a glowing golden color that seems to take effect not only on her hair but also her eyebrows and eyelashes as well.

After feeling that she completed the changes, this empress-like beauty noticed the semi-transparent, floating golden screen appearing in her vision, moving just to the side so that she could still see the plethora of approaching enemies that seemed to return to normal once again, their speed of approach getting faster by the second.

Without even a second thought, Hua Xian’er merely swings her sword, creating a crescent wave spreading from her direction moving forward, the crescent wave getting larger and larger as it travels farther and farther, only coming to a stop once it reaches more than a hundred meters away from the location she is standing, disappearing along it are the beasts that it had come into contact with during the short amount of time it is traveling in the air.

‘This is… absurd…’ Hua Xian’er thought to herself as she looked at her fist, clenching it hard and then sending a punch towards the remaining half of the beasts that were lucky enough to not be in the way of her first attack, this punch growing in size as well as it goes further and further, similar to the sword wave, both of them losing a considerable amount of their lethality as they reach farther distance.

While its power weakened at the end of its flight though, this doesn’t mean that it wouldn’t affect its target anymore, since this one single attack at the end of its flight appears to have a similar amount of force with her normal attack when she’s not in this form.

‘I wonder what would happen if I used it together with [Nature Projection]…’ she thought to herself with an excited smile on her face, only now noticing the golden colored hair replacing her black colored ones, which made her panic quite a bit.

After this thought though, her newly created technique disperses, returning her original hair color along with the color of her eyes, making her wonder about something.

‘If all my hair changes, then does that also…’ before she could even finish her sentence, she couldn’t help but blush quite a bit as she felt embarrassed for even thinking of such a thing, making her feel like her mind had been getting dirtier ever since she starts living together with her beloved.

‘It’s all Xiaotian’s fault!’ she thought to herself with such shameless conviction that she nearly made herself believe such claim as well.

———-

Sitting just right beside Hua Xian’er is her long-time sworn sister, the maidenly beauty that is Hong Lian, now truly her sister given that they share the same man, this maidenly beauty bearing the same expression as her sworn sister, a relaxed one that doesn’t even seem to be bothered by the illusion created by the Dao Resonating Rock.

Inside the illusion, the maidenly beauty is gracefully floating into the skies with nothing but a fan in her hand, this hand fan seemingly simple in appearance but be not mistaken, for it is a weapon that claims hundreds, if not thousands of lives of the opponents she is currently facing.

While Hua Xian’er is facing waves of beasts, Hong Lian is facing nothing but figures of herself charging toward her, the only thing preventing her from being disillusioned after repeatedly killing figures that completely resemble herself being the fact that she truly thinks that she is different from all of these copies of herself, no matter how much of her techniques and habits they can imitate.

The sole reason for that belief of uniqueness? The lightless gaze within their eyes, something that she used to have when she was still living within the confines of the Purple Lightning Temple, where she can’t even call her situation as living except for the times that she is with her mother, a situation no longer happening now given that her every single day has been fun and fulfilling ever since she escaped their clutches and starts living with her beloved.

‘I need… no, I want to return, that’s why I must make sure that I can deal with these things, properly, so that I can brag about it to Brother Tian…’ she thought to herself before she waved the fan in her hand.
