The rain poured like the heavens were weeping, and thunder rumbled through the dense forest. A figure limped forward, soaked in blood, every breath ragged and labored. The storm washed the dried blood off his torn robes, but it couldn't cleanse the hatred burning in his eyes.
His name was Ye Xuan, sixteen years old—an outer sect disciple of the Cloud Sword Sect. For his entire life, he was mocked as a cripple. Born with no spiritual sea, incapable of absorbing Qi. His clan discarded him, his fellow disciples ridiculed him, and even the girl he once cherished—Lin Yue'er—betrayed him.
She had become the Dao Companion of Zhao Tiandi, his so-called best friend.
They were the ones who ambushed him and pushed him into the Abyss of Wraiths, a place known to devour all who entered.
But instead of dying, Ye Xuan fell into an ancient cavern, buried deep beneath the earth. The air was thick with ghostly Qi, so cold it threatened to freeze his very blood. Just as he hovered between life and death, a voice echoed through the darkness—cold, seductive, inhuman:
[Host has met all requirements: betrayal, despair, and suppressed desire.][Initializing: Demonic Seduction System – Drain Everything Through Dual Cultivation.][Activate?]
Even as his body teetered on the edge of collapse—bones broken, organs bleeding—Ye Xuan's soul flared with defiance.
The desire to live. The need for revenge. The thirst to claim what was never his.
"…Activate it."
Pain exploded from within as a surge of violet-black energy erupted in his dantian. Tendons snapped, muscles tore, but then rebuilt—stronger. His shattered body reformed amidst the agony, sculpted by sheer hatred.
[Host has been accepted.][Demonic Seduction System: Gain cultivation by engaging in dual cultivation with others. Absorb their talent, Qi, bloodline, fortune—even memories and soul essence.][Warning: Each session will heighten the carnal desires of both parties. Failure to control may lead to loss of rationality.]
Ye Xuan screamed into the night—but not in fear.
It was rebirth.
One week later. Heavenly Cloud Sect, on the Crystal Peak.
In a secluded crystal pagoda reserved only for the most talented disciples, a breathtaking young woman sat in meditation, bathed in moonlight.
Lan Xingyu—possessor of the Pure Ice Physique, a rare body of divine-grade constitution. Late Foundation Establishment realm, unmatched beauty, and rumored to be the future successor of the Sect Leader himself.
She was cultivating the "Frost Jade Art", drawing pure icy Qi from the moonlight, forming snowflakes with every breath.
But she didn't know—someone was watching her from the shadows.
Ye Xuan, now clad in black robes and cloaked by a newly acquired stealth technique—Shadowstep—moved with silent precision.
[Target locked: Lan Xingyu – SSS+ Tier Physique][Virginity confirmed. Compatibility: 97%][Estimated absorption: +3 sub-realms, unlock unique skill.]
He didn't hesitate.
Placing a hand on her back, he released a wisp of seductive, dark energy. It slithered into her meridians like a lover's touch.
Lan Xingyu gasped, eyes snapping open. Her face twisted in shock—but her body betrayed her, quivering under his hand. Her cultivation was sealed. Her limbs weakened.
"W-What… who are you?" she stammered.
Before she could scream, his arms wrapped tightly around her, pressing her against his chest. His breath grazed her neck, warm and primal.
"Don't be afraid," he whispered. "I only came to borrow your Ice Essence."
Lan Xingyu shuddered. The energy within her dantian was being siphoned rapidly—but instead of resisting, her body trembled… and responded. A strange heat ignited in her core, soft moans escaping despite herself.
[Activating Sensual Pressure – amplifying pleasure response.][Dual cultivation initiated…]
Her snow-white robes tore away like silk. Beneath the moonlight, her body glistened—perfect, untouched, trembling with suppressed ecstasy. The scent of rain mixed with her natural fragrance filled the air, intoxicating.
Ye Xuan's mind burned with lust and power. He claimed her completely, without mercy, each thrust pushing deeper into both her flesh and cultivation.
[Essence absorbed.][Host upgraded: Qi Condensation Stage 4 → Foundation Establishment Stage 2][Talent acquired: Ice Elemental Affinity – Grade S][New skill unlocked: Frost Eye – Freeze target for 3 seconds.]
Lan Xingyu lay limp beneath him, her once-proud gaze now wet and broken. Her voice was barely a whisper:
"You… ruined everything…"
Ye Xuan knelt beside her, brushing a strand of hair from her cheek. His eyes gleamed with cruelty and hunger.
"And I'll ruin many more."
He turned and vanished into the night, leaving her ruined body sprawled beneath the cold moonlight—her cultivation shattered, her pride stripped, her future stolen.
