Dual Cultivation: Beasts and Women!

However, once he caught sight of the area, the signs of a fight, bloodstains, and a lifeless woman\'s body compelled him to alter his plans.

\'Fuck! They were really after me!\'

As Liam looked toward those women, members of the Abyss Matriarchs, a shiver ran down his spine.

Among the trio of 9-Star Spirit Lords, embroiled in the ongoing battle for the past minute and a half, one now lay sprawled on the ground, close to where Liam observed the confrontation. Her body was a grotesque sight, contorted with broken limbs and marred by deep claw marks.

The white-furred tiger left behind a scene of brutal carnage after savagely attacking and killing her!

But the situation of the other women wasn\'t much better. Only two of their Spirits were still there. Besides, one of the women had a deep abdominal wound.

Liam\'s eyes locked onto a brown-haired woman, her pale complexion contrasting with her blood-soaked garments and the sight of her protruding intestines. With a weapon still in her hand, she bravely joined forces with her companion and the two remaining ghosts to confront and attack the white creature.

The last woman, with jet-black hair and standing as tall as Liam, showed no signs of deep wounds on her body, but her exhaustion was evident as she was drenched in sweat and nearing her limit.

As she moved, Liam could see the fear in her eyes, a flicker of uncertainty about her chances of victory, and the grim reality of her survival. This was a dangerous forest for anyone to come so close to their limits!

The proximity of their end didn\'t diminish the significance of the three women\'s actions. Their efforts had a noticeable effect, even in the face of adversity. The 1-Star Spirit Earth Realm white tiger was also at its limit.

Its enormous body was covered with spear and sword wounds, and nearly 60% of its white fur was stained with blood. Meanwhile, at least five daggers were pierced in its body, causing it discomfort and limitation.

Its once striking gaze had dulled, its eyelids barely open, while its wide mouth hung open, desperately gasping for air with each movement.

If the tall black-haired woman was on her last legs before collapsing from exhaustion, this bestial creature appeared even more feeble.

With one last roar, the tiger obliterated one of the two translucent spirits surrounding it, intensifying the dizziness of the woman with the stomach wound.

As the last Spirit was destroyed, her situation took a turn for the worse, causing her to momentarily lose her balance and teeter backwards.

"Shit!" She wailed, but she had no hope of survival.

Her only chance was for her stronger sister to have a recovery potion left, otherwise she would die, since she had nothing like that in her ring today.

\'I should have prepared better...\' She regretted leaving the city in a hurry because of Liam.

On other occasions, she would have prepared better!

As her companion fell, the tall woman stood amidst the chaos, her spirit dwindling and the white tiger fixating on her with its menacing red eyes.

For a moment, she stood facing the creature, her heart pounding in her chest as she anticipated the decisive moment. With her mouth wide open, she let out a piercing scream before launching herself forward, her Spirit aflame doggedly to resolve the situation in a single decisive move.

The tiger thought the same and leaped up with one of its paws, pointing at the enemies, determined to end the fight.

At that moment, the tiger destroyed the last remaining Spirit in the area, its sharp, long claws going for the black-haired woman\'s left arm.

The tall woman did not falter at the loss of her Spirit. She continued to attack until she reached the enemy\'s chest and plunged her weapon into its body.

She succeeded in attacking the white tiger, but it also attacked her, throwing her 12 meters away until she crashed hard into a tree.

"Aaaagh!"

As she landed on the ground, dizzy and disoriented, a piercing scream echoed from the direction she had fallen.

As it looked down, its eyes widened in horror at the sight of the weapon lodged in its chest. It wasn\'t a blow that would have killed it, but it left a deep bruise. With all its injuries, this only served to further weaken it, introducing another source of bleeding into its already battered body.

The woman looked in the direction of the white creature and watched as it walked towards her with difficulty.

She wanted to get up and run, but she couldn\'t. She had broken one of her arms when she hit the tree next to her, while her left arm was badly injured from the previous attack.

Now all that was left was for the beast to catch up with her, and it would all be over.

\'Damn it! Why did this happen?\' She closed her eyes, grieving, but aware that there was no escape.

However, at the moment she closed her eyes, silence fell over her surroundings before the sound of something heavy falling to the ground echoed, followed by footsteps.

Opening her eyes without understanding, she saw a human with short black hair looking in her direction with a serene expression on his face.

She recognized him immediately.

"L-Liam P-Porter!" She stammered out his name.

Liam pulled his blood-stained spear out of the white tiger\'s head, its life abruptly extinguished. He then approached the black-haired woman, her intense gaze fixed upon him.

"You were after me..." He said as he drew a dagger and threw it at the brown-haired woman\'s neck.

With one swift movement, he cut the woman\'s jugular, making sure she wouldn\'t surprise him later.

The woman with black hair observed the situation without moving r saying anything. Given the condition her companion was in, that Desire would likely perish, regardless. If Liam didn\'t take action, she would do it herself to spare her friend from suffering.

"You\'re here to kill me..." She said in sudden calm and reassurance, sounding rather strange. "Sigh! Do what you have to do. Just be prepared for the consequences." She didn\'t try to negotiate, while unable to move properly.

"I will certainly prepare." He said as he drew his sword and stopped in front of her, touching one of the black-haired beauty\'s cheeks with the tip of his weapon.

Cultivators were usually pretty. What changed from one woman to the next was their charm, their type of beauty, their physique, their personality. Any Earth person would find the female cultivators of this world exquisite, some more, some less.

"In your next life, beautiful lady, don\'t work too hard against other people\'s lives. The karma of those who wish the end of innocents is never good."

With these words, Liam moved his sword and cut off the head of the woman kneeling before him.

In one clean, swift, decisive motion, he ended another life, putting an end to the third member of the Abyss Matriarchs in his path.

With her dead, Liam was alone, this time without people to attack him and try to steal his belongings.

He looked around, suspicious that Ester would act. But now he didn\'t feel like anyone was following him, and he wasn\'t exhausted either. Even if that woman was watching him, she wouldn\'t do anything against him now. She had already seen the kind of opponent he could kill.

Liam removed the space storage items from the three dead women, along with their Arcane Crystals. He did the same with the white tiger, removing the creature\'s claws and teeth as well.

In this situation, he made the biggest profit since he started hunting for crystals!

With little effort, he had got four Ancestor-grade Arcane Crystals, two of which were Low-level and two of which were Middle-level ones!

Besides these crystals, he also received 10 Second Class weapons, 70 gold coins, 560 silver coins, 19 technique books, 12 miscellaneous knowledge books, and a few enchanted artifacts of low rank.

Among the items of little use to him were women\'s clothes, letters, combs, diaries, and other artifacts useful to women.

He also received two new spatial rings and a space necklace, along with keys similar to those he had received when he joined the sect.

This time, however, he was surprised to take two pills from his opponents\' spatial items. Neither was of interest to him, but they could be valuable in Mary\'s hands.

So, he set off in search of a place to cultivate in secret, intending to let Thal\'Korr absorb the new Arcane Crystals he\'d got.

It was time for him to go in search of another qualitative breakthrough!
