Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 266: Unlocking the Essence



MingYue's expression turned complicated. Telling Alex everything would certainly make him flip out.

Since the beginning, his biggest fear was some other soul trying to consume him and take over. Now, it does exist.

Even though the intention is unknown, Vesa hiding all these things will still make him flip out, as Vesa said.

"MingYue, what is wrong?" Alex asked as he started walking toward her. It's not in her personality to just stay there all silent if nothing happened.

Since Vesa had awakened, he thought this should be something related to it.

[Queen, I will let you decide. As for your strength, if we hide it from the King, I could unlock at least half of it.]

[It will get both of you to a true 5%; with the consumed new essence and Thalia's help, it should be more than enough to take care of this Vesa. And the Aspect of Gluttony outside.]

'I will not hide it from Alex, but not now. Go do it. We will talk again after we finish with this Vesa.'

[Alright]

SWOSH!!!

Alex and MingYue could feel an explosion of energy, so much so that they felt they were drowning in it. The energy leaked out from their bodies, creating a crimson-like aura.

Thalia and the other Vesa stopped their fight as they felt the surge of energy.

The other Vesa's face turned ugly, and he quickly changed his goal. Since it had come to this, he would only have a chance if he united with the Aspect of Gluttony outside.

His wings flapped as he undid the barrier, turning the place into its real appearance.

Thalia grinned, looking at this. The other Vesa just made a huge mistake. Before, she couldn't utilize the life force contained in this castle, but now it was all at her fingertips to use.

All the runes here, after all, were carved by her. It took her a lot of time, but she always knew it would be worth it in case something like this happened.

She raised her hand, and green particles started moving like a stream to her body.

Swosh! Swosh!

Part of the vault wall moved like it was alive, transforming into chains. They shot through the air.

The other Vesa felt it coming and tried to dodge it. He also slashed his claw, creating an air blade of purplish energy toward the chains.

Seeing this, Thalia just smirked. With how much energy she had now, so what if he could dodge two, or four, or ten. She could make as many as she wanted.

Hundreds to thousands of chains launched into the air, binding the other Vesa's body and turning it into a cocoon of chains.

Desperate, the other Vesa decided to go all out. The mark on his forehead shone brightly as he tried to exert all of Gluttony's power.

The chains that bound him started being chomped on as many small mouths appeared on his body.

But this surge of energy came at a cost. The more he utilized the Gluttony, the more his sanity was reduced, making him move by instinct.

CHOMP!

All the chains were eaten clean in a second, making Thalia stop her attack. She didn't want to be careless, giving more strength to the other Vesa.

What made Gluttony scary was its ability to consume almost everything, turning it into its own energy.

Thalia raised her finger forward as she prepared to shoot the same attack that destroyed the barrier.

At this moment, Alex and MingYue have already gotten used to their newfound power. The only visible change was their eyes, which now turned fully crimson. But this didn't mean they could be underestimated.

Alex appeared in front of the other Vesa. His lips curled into a grin, showing his sharp fangs.

BAM!

He punched the other Vesa straight in the face, breaking his nose in the process. But just as he moved a bit.

BANG!

Another kick arrived at his back.

The next moment, he was beaten to a pulp, sent back and forth as Alex attacked from the front while MingYue from the back.

They used their own hands and feet to get more accustomed to their new power.

Each of their attacks chained without a gap, barely allowing the other Vesa a moment to breathe.

But this didn't mean he had given up.

With the many mouths on his body, each of them also had a tongue. He moved them, creating a pattern of runes to launch a skill.

Alex was throwing a punch to his gut when suddenly, a hexagonal shield made of rock appeared, blocking the attack.

The rock was quite hard, as Alex's punch only successfully cracked it.

The same happened with MingYue. Each of her attacks was blocked.

Seeing this, Thalia decided to support them. She started launching many chains at the other Vesa.

Even though he could consume it, this would create a gap for Alex and Ming Yue to attack.

They then started getting serious. Blood started coming out, turning Alex's hand into a claw with long and sharp nails.

It also covered his body, making some armor on his shoulders, hands, knees, and chest, with two bat wings coming out from his back.

It was a simple design but enough to do the work.

Meanwhile, MingYue was testing something else. As she was already able to produce frost qi by herself, she combined it with the blood and life force.

She was also inspired by the beasts she had fought before. The serpent.

Two draconic-like wings came out from her back, attached to the armor on her torso. It also covered her chest, all the way to her waist. From her back, a tail came out, and a sword appeared in her hand.

As one of her swords was destroyed, she created another one using the blood, followed by seven lotuses floating around her.

Pointing her sword, the lotuses shot toward the other Vesa. When they came close, they exploded into many sharp petals that spread out into a deadly storm, covering him from view.
