I Can Only Cultivate In A Game-Chapter 196: Fang Chen Vs Yan Rui

"Cute," Yan Rui purred.

Victor gritted his teeth and conjured wind gales, sending sharp, invisible strikes from multiple angles.

She tilted her head and extended a finger. Pink, misty energy flowed around her and took the form of illusionary but sturdy blooming flowers.

They caught the wind blades like steel catching feathers.

She retaliated with a flick of her wrist.

Vines of seductive, dark-red energy burst forth from the floor like snakes, lashing at Victor's limbs. He summoned a burst of frost from his palm—Frost Bloom Palm—freezing the tendrils mid-air and shattering them with a spin kick.

He didn't get a second to breathe.

Yan Rui appeared behind him, almost like she had just teleported and slashed with her long-nailed fingers covered in glowing runes.

Victor activated Phantom Mirage Step, disappearing and reappearing five feet away in a blur.

His breathing was already heavier.

Yan Rui's cultivation Dao was absurdly tricky—a blend of illusion, temptation, and seduction. Her attacks didn't just wound the body; they invaded the mind.

Victor roared and activated his Void Emperor Bloodline again, shrouding his body in a layer of spatial qi.

He clenched his sword, reinforced it with Void Thread Manipulation, and launched another devastating frontal assault. This time he combined Frost Bloom Palm, Wind Blade, and Shadow Crescent Strike in one barrage.

It hit.

Her arm took the blow causing a deep gash split across her skin as blood trailed into the air.

Yan Rui didn't even scream or groan in pain.

Instead she moaned.

"Ahh... you're deliciously vicious," she whispered while licking her lips. "Aww, it's you Fang Chen... I finally recognise your face..."

Victor flinched.

She stepped closer, and before he could react, a lotus shaped seal circled his body—

The formation instantly pinned him down with invisible chains that emitted a pink mist.

His limbs felt numb and he felt a rising heat from a certain part of his body.

'Am I getting turned on? How is that even possible within the game?'

She sauntered up to him slowly with her bare feet gliding over the floor. Her hand pressed onto his chest and slid up to his face.

"You've grown even more handsome. Such a shame... But I've changed my mind about giving you the fate you so rightfully deserve." She pressed her lips softly onto his.

Victor tried to turn his face, but his body wasn't responding. Even though this was a game... the feeling of her lips on his was no joke.

"If you agree to be my sex slave, I won't kill you. I've never had a transmigrator before. I wonder how it feels to own one..."

Victor's mind raced as he tried to grasp at any technique he could still channel. But the seal was etched onto his soul. He couldn't access his qi.

"Come on... you know you want it..." she whispered while grazing her fingers up his thighs to feel the budge that had formed under his robes.

"Am I really getting sexually assaulted by an NPC, right now? Doesn't feel as good as I imagined..." Victor voiced with a disgruntled tone.

It was also quite unfortunate that there was no one to help him since Tarkos and Elder Huang were currently dealing with the female elder.

"Come on," she whispered. "Just say yes..."

Then suddenly—

A burst of light slammed into Yan Rui from the side, sending her flying across the air and slamming into the far wall.

The attack shattered the seductive lotus seal.

Victor gasped while falling to his knees, coughing.

The moment he turned to stare at his saviour, he was shocked to see who it was.

"Xiao... Mei?" he blinked in disbelief.

There she stood, wrapped in a long green robe with serpent-like patterns.

"Sorry, Yan Rui. It's over," her voice rang out clearly.

Yan Rui rose slowly while wiping blood from her mouth. "You? Traitor."

Xiao Mei stepped beside Victor and helped him up. "I'm not dying with the rest of you fools. I've seen enough. The Emerald Coil is crumbling."

"You think you can take me?"

"Not alone," Xiao Mei said. "But there's two of us now."

Victor was still surprised about the sudden change in situation but nevertheless, he didn't mind taking advantage of the opportunity.

"What was that quote again? The enemy of my friend is my fre... oh whatever, let's just take her down,"

Victor clenched his fist and a burst of qi surged from his body.

He stood tall with despite his battered look.

Yan Rui screamed and the chamber shook.

The battle resumed.

Yan Rui's new power let her twist the air into blades as her spirit energy formed seductive illusions that shifted the room constantly.

But now with Xiao Mei's interference, she was distracted.

Even though Xiao Mei wasn't as powerful, she was still peak Nascent Soul Realm so she could give Yan Rui a run for her money.

Victor zipped around with Wind Glide and Wind Dash, slicing through her distractions. Xiao Mei used snake-binding techniques to keep Yan Rui's movement suppressed. The two of them worked in sync—

Victor brought the aggression while Xiao Mei offered control.

Yan Rui tried to form a soul-binding curse but Victor hurled his frost covered sword at her, causing it to pierce into her arm and freeze it mid-cast.

Xiao Mei conjured an energy net and hurled it onto her legs.

Victor called his sword back and slashed again, leaving a deep cut across her waist.

Yan Rui shrieked and exploded with energy, knocking both of them backward.

But the damage was done.

She was bleeding and panting. Her lightning storm had waned.

Victor and Xiao Mei circled her.

"You're finished, Yan Rui," Victor voiced while raising his sword.

"I should have killed you back then," she hissed.

"You tried," he replied. "Now it's my turn."

He rushed forward while Yan Rui gathered energy for a final blast, but Xiao Mei's used a technique to tangle her limbs at the last moment, giving Victor the opportunity to stab his sword through her heart.

Yan Rui's eyes widened as a violent stream of qi surged into her from the blade, causing her heart to explode.

Victor wasn't taking any chances this time.

Her body instantly slumped and the storm faded.

Victor exhaled heavily.

"Finally," he muttered.

...

...

Meanwhile...

The surrounding area where the battle between Elder Zhen and Tarkos had been completely neutralized.

Destruction riddled every corner and craters had formed in multiple areas.

Elder Zhen seemed to have the upperhand even though they were both injured as she repeatedly hurled at Frostveil spear forward.

Even without contact, it had turned a radius of more than seven hundred feet into ice and Tarkos found himself covered by frost despite evading on multiple occasions.

Tarkos knew keeping this up would be bad so he wanted to end it as fast as he could but things didn't seem to be going in his favour.

Elder Zhen held up the Frostveil Spear once more and launched it like a divine missile.

Tarkos decided he had finally had enough and caught it mid-flight, but the contact sent him skidding back a dozen feet with his boots scraping ice as frost spread from the spear to his body.

His tattoos glowing wildly as they spread and he forced them to latch onto the spear.

In nearly an instant, the spear was covered in black ink and Tarkos proceeded to spin around before hurling it back at her.

Twwhiii~

The spear shot forward with insane speed but she caught it.

However, the tattoos writhed from the spear and partly wrapped around her fingers, glueing her in place.

Elder

Huang also raised his trembling hands. A string of talismans flew forth, attaching themselves to Zhen's shoulder and hip.

She tried to shake them off—but Huang clapped his palms and activated Spirit Chain Bind. Purple cords shot from the talismans and coiled around her.

Tarkos seized the moment and sped forward with his fingers outstretched.

PUCHIII~

His stabbed through her icy armor and partly pierced her chest.

Zhen spat blood and retaliated with an icy uppercut that sent shards across his jaw.

His attack hadn't been powerful enough to kill her in one fell swoop but she was badly injured now.

He sent a punch infused with the weight of a mountain, crashing into her midsection which sent her crashing through the courtyard wall, toppling the ice-coated structure with her.

She tried to rise again while dragging herself with fractured limbs, but Tarkos was already there. He raised his foot and stepped onto her arm, pinning her to the ground.

"It is over," he said.

"Not… yet…" she whispered while trying to activate one more technique.

"Stubborn woman," Tarkos stated before stomping her head to the ground and bashing her skull in.

Blood splattered across the ground as her body twitched repeatedly.

Elder Huang stared at her bloodied body which was slowly being drained of life. "Looks like we did it..."

"Hnm," Tarkos nodded.

"One left."
