Dual Cultivation: Beasts and Women!

Not wanting to leave his room, given the dangers in the city at the moment, Liam also used the Arcane Crystals he had with him from his recent hunts and his monthly wage. Hence, Thal\'Korr was now at 92% progress within the 8-Star level.

Liam was also reaching the end of his level, a little behind Thal\'Korr, who would surely advance before him. However, at Liam\'s current growth rate, he was certain that he could advance his cultivation realm even without the use of external resources!

After days of hard work, by the end of that afternoon, he had created four First Class enchanted items in a row, getting close to where he could attempt his first Second Class inscription!

As night fell on City Thirteen, Liam prepared to go out and throw off his watchers, with plans to see Electa.

On the way to Electa\'s room, he thought of Felicity, eager for his ally to return so he could ask her for a new target name for him to act upon.

\'It is time for me to expand my group of cultivation partners!\'

...

Forty minutes later, Liam relaxed on Electa\'s side and let his little brother slide down her body while it was sticky and well lubricated.

She took a deep breath as she relaxed her muscles, still in the same position she had been in for the last few minutes.

With her mouth open and her breasts rising and falling, Electa was more than satisfied and couldn\'t help but let a beautiful smile form on her lips.

The cultivation with Liam had become more intense and more enjoyable for her as the days went by!

She was gradually coming under his control during the cultivation, while the results of her cultivation were becoming more intense, and she felt more \'fulfilled\' with each session.

He was becoming more and more energetic afterward, while his improvements were becoming less intense. Fortunately, unlike Electa and Mary, his improvements were completely stable, with no loss of vitality.

Liam felt stronger and stronger with each session!

Still, he was drenched in sweat as he lay on Electa\'s messy sheets, oblivious to the tasteless decor of his partner\'s room.

"I don\'t know how that blonde can keep up with you," Electa said under her breath, looking away curiously. "I used to stand two hours of this. But now just over half an hour is my maximum."

"Mary lasts less than you, of course."

"So as you get stronger, we\'ll be with you less?"

"Not necessarily." He understood her thought and reassured her, knowing that this wasn\'t just cultivation for her and Mary, even though that was their focus. "I can lower the efficiency of cultivation to make the experience last longer."

"You have to lower your level to be with us?" Somehow, Electa didn\'t like the sound of that.

"Unfortunately, that\'s what it sounds like." He stood up, seeing that she was about to complain. But he was just being honest about how it was.

"Maybe we can change that somehow." She surprised him by stopping him at the bathroom door.

"How?" he asked as he looked at her.

"I now possess the linguistic skills to translate the book of the incubus. Based on the passage I have already translated, I believe I can undo certain consequences our cultivation practices have and potentially enhance the effectiveness of cultivation, all without diminishing the duration of coitus."

"Oh?" He returned to her side with interest.

"The passage I copied from your book was about methods to prepare the \'victims\' of dual cultivation," she said in a not so pleasant tone.

"Victims?"

"Your incubus doesn\'t see your partners as companions, but as victims of your powers, guinea pigs, or perhaps food? Either way, he used that word to refer to us, your partners."

Liam felt it made sense, somehow. To the incubus, he was surely the greatest sexual predator there was, and their prey was surely any woman within their reach.

Electa continued with what she had discovered. "In order to make your victims last longer, the incubus lists several herbs that have similar physical strengthening properties. This led me to conclude that if we can increase the quality of our bodies, we\'ll be able to perform better, get better results, and lose less vitality with each session."

"It makes sense. Mary seems really different since she took the potion I told you about." He looked into her eyes. "But those resources aren\'t so easy to come by."

In a world where the power of the soul was paramount, most of the artificial resources were for strengthening the soul, for soul restoration, and only a few were for physical restoration. And even the latter was not for what Electa had in mind.

Restoration and physical evolution were different things!

"I know, but it\'s better than nothing. At least now we have something to look for to make us even stronger." She stood up as she felt the strength return to her legs. "Anyway, leave your incubus book with me. I want to translate everything and see if we can find anything else useful."

"All right." Liam agreed as he joined her in the shower, eager to find out more.

Anything that could give him more power was good and worth exploring, he thought. Electa wouldn\'t risk the contents of the book, and he wouldn\'t need it in the short term. As soon as he was done dressing, he handed her the old and relatively small item. With only 100 pages, the book was thin.

With it back in her hands, Electa promised Liam, "I\'ll finish it in a week at the most. We\'ll talk about it when I have new information."

The two parted while Liam made his way to the Library. He had read all the volumes he had with him, and it was time to learn more about Twin Land, Spirit Masters\' techniques, pills, resources, and much more.

A competent Spirit Master had to be able to identify resources in order to take advantage of opportunities, to know the correct value of things, but also to protect themselves. Hannibal had ignored the poisonous vegetation around him, and it had affected him more than he had imagined.

Liam had seen more than one case of Spirit Masters falling because of their arrogant, careless, and ignorant attitudes. He didn\'t want the same for himself and was eagerly seeking more knowledge to prepare for his future travels.

If Ester\'s information was to be believed, he would soon be forced to join the hunt for the Silver-Winged Leopard. Thinking about it, he wanted to study this beast a little more, its habits and powers, to more or less understand what the upcoming hunt of the creature would be like and what problems might arise.

When he returned to the Library, he looked up the third level, which cost 100 merit points to access. Fortunately, he had 199 merit points after selling the resources he had traded with Mary earlier and what he had collected on his last time outside the city.

With a fist pump, he paid the 100 merit points for level three of the Library!
