The Wicked Cultivation Game - Chapter 33

Chapter 33: Wicked Curse

5 days’ worth of Lifespan?!

Fang Yue was overjoyed!

This Locking Wicked might not have rewarded him as much stats as the Fingereater, but it sure remunerated him with a lot of Lifespans!

Fang Yue did not know how it worked. Maybe the different types of Wicked on different levels would result in different rewards.

However, he had a feeling that the Fingereater was stronger.

All Wickeds with black bloody eyes were Newborn Wickeds which were ranked the lowest at the Black-level early-tier.

Only when a Wicked gained clear eyes and made it through the Black Blood phase could it transform into a Black-level medium-tier or higher.

Of course, it was not fixed. Some Wickeds who got past the Black Blood phase might still be a Black-level early-tier.

It was without a doubt that the Fingereater was a Black-level Wicked who had gotten past the Black Blood phase, which was why Fang Yue believed that it was stronger.

Among all Wickeds, the weakest one was the Black-level early-tier, and its human counterpart would be the Third-rate Postcelestial martial artist, which made him a real martial artist who had started his journey on the martial path.

The difference in strength was huge and ridiculous because, in the entire Guyue village, there were only three martial artists on such a tier—the three captains. The other members were simply practitioners of rough martial arts; they could not be considered as martial artists yet.

However, humans possessed intellect.

Weapons, protective gears, rough martial arts, stats that empowered one’s physical state, formations, Human Soul Fire that could weaken the Wickeds…everything could be used to strengthen themselves.

Therefore, a party of six patrol members could already rival the standard Wicked, but the casualty rate remained high.

The only one who could face a Wicked alone was a true martial artist.

Even the co-captains had to get help from his team to be able to overpower the Wicked.

The Locking Wicked was considered normal among the Black-level early-tiers. After all, while it relied on the strange technique, it was not damaging enough.

Of course, it was only normal when compared to Fang Yue at night. If it had been during the day, Fang Yue would have died easily, and even the normal patrol members might not be able to hold it back.

Even Brother Yong, a patrol member who was one step away from being a co-captain, died in the hands of the Locking Wicked, which further proved the Wicked’s strength.

During the night, Fang Yue combined his cultivation method and saber technique to boost his Control to 47, and now with another 5 points, his Control reached 52.

Fang Yue believed that, in the entire Guyue Village, his stats were considered one of the few stronger ones, and he could rival the co-captain or even the captain.

The Postcelestial martial art enabled him to do whatever he wanted, but his internal energy was only enough for one strike and his saber had broken in the process. Therefore, he was stuck in the middle for now.

He looked at his newly updated character window.

[Name: NightDawn]

[State: Third-rate Postcelestial]

[Status: Wicked Curse (Right Hand)]

[HP: 200/200]

[Internal Energy:85/25]

[Control: 34 (+20) (-3)]

[Block: 34 (+20) (-3)]

[Talent: Night Breathing (high-tier Human-level)]

[Martial Arts: Insight Vision (low-tier Human-level), Starfire Saber Technique 0 Grade (Third-rate Postcelestial), Starfire Cultivation Method 0 Grade (Third-rate Postcelestial)]

[Lifespan: 13 days 1 hours]

Fang Yue first noticed the increased Lifespan and was delighted, but at a second glance, he felt that something was not right.

“Wait, why is there a -3 in my stats? What’s the [Wicked Curse]?”

He stared at the [Wicked Curse] for a while, and his [Insight Vision] was activated.

[Name: Wicked Curse]

[Effect: -3 Control, -3 Block]

[Description: A curse left behind by a special Wicked. Cursed part: Right hand.]

[Time: 48 hours]

[Remark: Put your hands together and pray that something happens to you.]

“My right forearm?”

Fang Yue looked at it. The square hole that the Locking Wicked had pushed out was still there. The hole was in the middle of his forearm where the flesh and bones had been compressed and pushed out.

“Is this the Wicked Curse?”

There was even a countdown in the description, and it was decreasing second by second. Fang Yue felt nervous.

“What will happen when it reaches 0? And how do I get it off?”

Fang Yue was at a loss with no idea what to do.

It was then that his right forearm got itchy and the flesh around the square hole seemed to be growing slowly.

A slight pause later, he knew what the time meant.

“I see! It must be a countdown of how long it lasts! When the time reaches 0, it will automatically recover! It seems like this Wicked Curse isn’t something scary.”

Fang Yue sighed a breath of relief. He put the little square piece of meat into the square hole, and it fit perfectly.

He realized that after putting it inside, the itch got stronger. The meat around the hole had tiny tendrils coming out, reaching out to the little square piece to merge. The process was slow, but Fang Yue could sense the changes. Even his bones were reconnecting.

Relieved, he put his hand aside and looked at the body on the ground.

The body of the Wicked had burned into cinders without a fire.

[Name: Black ashes]

[Description: Ashes left behind by a Wicked after death. It has many uses.]

Fang Yue collected all the ashes and put them into his storage window.

The ashes then combined with the previous stack and only took up a single slot. However, something was now different about the black ashes.

[Black Ashes (6g)]

“6g? What is that? Gram? It’s not that light. It’s a little heavy, in fact. Could it be a number? It’s ashes, so how can it be a number?”

Fang Yue was a little confused. All he knew was that the “g” was some kind of measurement unit.

Then, Niu Niu jogged over. He was severely injured and was unable to move too vigorously.

“Brother Night! Bro, you are awesome! You are the strongest in the game!

“It’s not like I’m boasting, but I know you better than anyone! I’m your biggest fan!

“Brother Night! I’m impressed! Assist me! Assist me! I’m gonna follow you wherever you go! Be it mountains with knives or hell with boiling oil, one word, and I’ll be there!”

Niu Niu was talking nonsense as he ran over with his broken arm and heart. He was excited because he had gotten a notification from the system.

He had assisted in the killing of the Locking Wicked and got 0.1 Control as a reward!

0.1! 0.1 Control!

After toiling hard day and night, even with his talent, [Superstrength], he only got 0.7 Control.

Now, he only punched the Wicked twice before he was beaten, and after Fang Yue came in and killed the Wicked, he got 0.1 Control out of the whole situation.

It was great!

“No matter where you go, no matter what you do, no matter what Wicked you kill, I’ll do all of it! I will be your arms and legs! We are brothers from now on! If you are having meat, I will have the soup! We will be invincible in the game!”
