Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

"Where are you going with this question?" she asked.

Looking up, Alex could see fear on her face.

"Sorry, I don't mean it that way. Let me rephrase it.

If this organ on your back that produces fairy dust is hurt, damaged, or basically destroyed to the point it couldn't function, will you die?"

"Yes, we call this organ a fairy heart. It doesn't beat, but without it, we are dead. As for our real heart, even if it's damaged, our fairy heart will be able to heal it."

"Then, no wonder many methods are not working. I will be blunt. To find a way to enhance it, I will need to experiment, and this is no easy endeavor.

I could use simulation and try to predict the outcome, but with a completely different nervous system, I doubt the result will be accurate at all."

"So you mean you need a live fairy specimen to experiment with a high risk of death?"

"Yes. Look, you have read many books in this library.

It could be said our understanding of our own bodies is not small, but even with all this information, I still need to experiment many times over to finally get the cultivation method I gave you."

"Isn't this cultivation method from another world? You mean you modified it?"

"Of course. Otherwise, the way wouldn't be as streamlined. I will be honest. I experimented on my own body.

If not because it's been enhanced and I couldn't die, I would have already died hundreds of times over."

The memory of trying to enhance his ability and brain was still fresh in his mind. All the pain resulted in failure.

Even now, he hasn't been able to find a way to break through.

'Now that reminds me since Vesa's strength has recovered, I should be able to put the same rune I gave Emily to others.

I will give it to Quartz, Zold, and Olivia. As for William and Alice, I will see how it goes,' Alex thought.

The reason he does this is because he knows that even if Quartz, Zold, and Olivia got controlled by a strong being to hurt him in the future, he still couldn't forgive himself if they were killed.

They are like his real family. Despite not being close to them, Alex could tell what they meant to his mother and sister. Stay with the story on m v l e m p y r

"I understand your point. How about I try to learn how my body works with Faerith, then? Can we trust her?"

Alex gave some consideration to it and then agreed.

Those who would feel the need to get the information wouldn't be able to break Faerith's contract with him.

As for those strong beings, Alex doubted they would care what makes a fairy's body tick.

After some more small talk, they said goodbye. Alex then returned to his room. As he had some time, his first goal now was to create a secret technique.

He had seen how exquisite MingYue used it.

"Those ice lotuses have really become the foundation of her combat strength.

With that as a foundation, it allowed her to quickly progress. I should make something similar for each of my core members.'

Alex then remembered he hadn't contacted William. In Alice's case, the cultivation method failed.

Who knows about William?

His situation is even more weird since his body was contaminated by something.

'I will ask him later. For now, I will focus on the important ones first,' Alex thought.

He still didn't know what to make for himself, but he already had some ideas for the others.

For example, for Emily, his sister, by using the wisp of light. Despite not having any, he had already scanned everything about it.

He raised his palm. The ERX chip in his brain started working, creating a 3D visual of the wisp of light, then started showcasing the inside of it.

Even though, from a glance, it looked like just a ball of light, the wisp of light was more complicated than that.

There were particles of light moving in certain ways all over its body. When it cast or used abilities, the pattern would change in some way.

This reminded Alex of how formations and runes worked.

'Now that I think of it, secret techniques and combat also work like this.

Qi and breathing need to be maintained and controlled in a certain way to produce a certain result.'

Focusing on the pattern, Alex started memorizing it and creating many simulations in his brain.

His goal now was to crack what kind of pattern resulted in what kind of ability. Afterward, he would need to translate it to the human body.

The decrypting process took Alex a long time, but it was quite smooth. The real hurdle came after he cracked it: how to use it on the human body.

While he was engrossed in this, Alex didn't realize MingYue and Emily were back in his room.

MingYue told Vesa not to warn Alex.

"See, MingYue, he is always like that when he is too focused on something," Elly said with a chuckle.

"Isn't that good? That means he is really focused on his task."

"Yeah, I won't say so. Thankfully, his body is strong enough to keep up with his concentration right now.

You know, when he was a kid, he once fainted because he was in a trance for too long."

"How do you know about it? Weren't you still a kid at that time too?"

"Of course, Mom told me. It's not even something complicated.

Dad, at that time, brought him a mountain of puzzles to solve.

They ranged from easy difficulty all the way to the highest one, which some people say is impossible.

My mom said my brother was very happy at that time. He then started working on it.

Hours passed with him in that state, not moving. My mom wanted to interrupt at first, but my dad said don't."

"I see. In that situation, I would agree with your dad," MingYue commented.
