Harness Cultivator

Chapter 6 - No Money



"Why did you exude such a killing intent on that woman before?" Xiao Chu asked Lee Tao once he settled in his dorm.

"That vile woman tried to kick me off from this place that is brimmed with profound qi." Lee Tao snorted as he dumped his belongings to the side and laid on his bed.

"Brimmed with profound qi? The profound qi in this world is the same everywhere unless there is a special environment." Xiao Chu replied.

Lee Tao raised an eyebrow at Xiao Chu. She was acting awfully suspicious for some reason but he couldn't pinpoint exactly where though.

Although Xiao Chu's appearance is a loli girl, she was still a system imprinted on the necklace without any emotions.

'Ugh, why am I even frying my brain to wonder how her mindset works?' Lee Tao shook his head as he decided to explain his method to Xiao Chu.

"Xiao Chu, I'm a cultivator that harnesses other people's profound qi- meaning I can't cultivate the profound qi directly from heaven but through other cultivators." Lee Tao said.

And he continued, "Hence, the Tianyun Academy is the only place where I can harness a bunch of profound qi while being clear of suspicions."

"Suspicions? Xiao Chu can't comprehend." Xiao Chu said.

Lee Tao twitched his mouth as he decided to explain things to Xiao Chu.

After all, she did help him today in injecting euphoria on Yu Xiuying and allowed him to harness a bit of her profound qi.

"When I harness other people's profound qi, they would notice a slight fluctuation on their body but given my experience, it's hard to detect. Hence, harnessing people's profound qi was never hard but it would be problematic if I got no targets to do so." Lee Tao said.

And he continued, "Without any more candidates to be my lovely profound qi, they would become alarmed when they notice their cultivation stagnated."

Xiao Chu remained silent afterward and stopped questioning Lee Tao's actions.

Sometime later, Lee Tao asked Xiao Chu, "Anyway, have you recorded all the people we encountered when I was walking around the campuses?"

"Un, they have all been recorded in the database and the list has been made."

"Perfect, show the projection screen as I need to know who is going to be my source of cultivation."

Lee Tao grinned evilly when Xiao Chu showed a list of people.

"Hehe, all these hot-headed youths need to cultivate stronger so I can harness more." Lee Tao mumbled softly as he wondered what he could do to increase their cultivation.

"Wait, alchemy pills- how could I forget this easy ticket to cultivation?" Lee Tao smacked his head lightly.

Afterward, he started scurrying his belongings and became dumbfounded.

"Crap, I left in a hurry since I was excited that I forgot I got no money." Lee Tao tried to search for spirit stones since he needed to purchase herbs to refine pills.

"Xiao Chu, is it possible for you to lend me some herbs?" Lee Tao turned around and stared at Xiao Chu with a loving gaze.

Xiao Chu's expression became disgusted as she floated slightly away from Lee Tao.

"No can do, the herbs are locked for you at the moment and you are not allowed to access them." Xiao Chu flatly refused him.

"I see, guess I'll have to find another way then." Lee Tao said depressingly before showing an evil grin.

"Did you really think I'm going to say that?" Lee Tao restricted Xiao Chu as he pulled her closer to him.

Xiao Chu gnashed her teeth in anger as she shouted, "You can't be unreasonable. Let go of the necklace."

Lee Tao shook his head as he held the necklace tightly in his hand. "What would happen to you if I destroy this necklace? Your spirit disappeared or would you disintegrate into nothingness?"

"Whatever, I should have done this a long time and obtained all the wealth hidden inside of you."

As Lee Tao prepared to crack the necklace into multiple pieces, Xiao Chu gave in to his threat.

"Isn't it just some herbs you want? I'll give them to you." Xiao Chu shouted as she flicked her hand and multiple herbs started dropping down to the floor.

Lee Tao released his strength on the necklace as he placed it back onto his neck.

"Should have done that in the first place, Xiao Chu." Lee Tao sneered as he picked up the herbs. "We are together in this First Heaven and you should be helping me with your best effort if you want to reunite with Tian Meifen."

"Miss Tian Meifen specifically ordered not to provide much assistance to you otherwise, the reincarnation cycle would become pointless." Xiao Chu retorted as she glared angrily at Lee Tao.

It was clear that she despised Lee Tao for using the necklace to threaten her.

Lee Tao shrugged his shoulders.

"I still don't know what's the point of this ridiculous reincarnation cycle. The profound qi in the First Heaven sucks so much that cultivating is difficult." He complained.

"You have no compassion for others and you are a selfish being. Only by interacting with mortals would you understand for the better." Xiao Chu replied before disappearing into the necklace.

Lee Tao wasn't bothered by Xiao Chu's insult as he started arranging the herbs.

However, he had not refined pills for a very long time after drifting in the void as he forgot another crucial piece of equipment.

"A furnace or cauldron as they call it here." Lee Tao sighed at the herbs in his hands.

"Why am I making such amateur mistakes- no, it must be because of this place that polluted my mind." Lee Tao reasoned himself.

"I never have to work hard for anything but now I have to do everything by myself. Life is so unfair."

After complaining for a few more moments, Lee Tao decided to head out of his dorm to explore around the Tianyun Academy while secretly extracting other people's profound qi.
