Although it always felt a little weird to have cat ears and a tail, Chu Wuyao's expression soon returned to indifference and she glanced at Cthulhu below, with murderous intent flashing in her eyes.

"Haha-ha... Master, I'm just joking...It's just a joke!", Cthulhu rushed to explain and its trembling body revealed its inner fear.

Fortunately for it, Chu Wuyao was currently in a good mood and she didn't care enough to slap it away.

While Cthulhu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran away, Chu Wuyao turned her attention back to her body.

She had noticed during her previous attempt that while she was in her Mist Dragon state, her defense would slightly improve and the power of any mist-based skill she used would increase.

Contrary to then however, in her current state, which she named Twilight Cat state, her physical strength didn't improve at all, nor did the power of any of her skills increase.

The only change she noticed was an ability that was engraved on her blood, that was very similar to the other Devil Abilities she possessed.

The moment she activated this ability, Chu Wuyao found that the size of her body suddenly increased.

From the height of an ordinary woman, she quickly became more than two meters tall and then three meters, four meters...

This continuous increase only stopped when she reached a height of about 5 meters and a huge catgirl had appeared in the underground room.

Subconsciously, Chu Wuyao opened her mouth and a large abyss was revealed inside, that looked ready to swallow everything around her.

No, this abyss did swallow everything around her!

Whether it was the floor, the walls or even Cthulhu, they all trembled violently and the suction force almost caused them to fly towards her mouth.

Fortunately, before this happened, Chu Wuyao recovered and closed her mouth in time.

"Thankfully, I didn't swallow my pet, otherwise it would be really embarrassing...", Chu Wuyao muttered.

While she wiped some of the nonexistent sweat on her forehead, Chu Wuyao thought of the scene she saw the moment she activated the ability.

The scene was that of a small golden cat that was casually floating in space, until suddenly, its size started increasing out of nowhere.

In the blink of an eye, its size had become massive, larger than the Mist Dragon, larger than any creature Chu Wuyao had ever seen.

Under her gaze, the giant cat teleported and its figure appeared in front of a small orange ball, as it opened its mouth and swallowed it.

The moment the golden cat swallowed this ball, the scene shattered and Chu Wuyao returned to reality.

"Is this the reason why it's called Twilight Cat?", Chu Wuyao whispered in a low voice.

She knew that the small orange ball that the golden cat swallowed was not anything else, but a star.

To be more accurate it was a sun.

Yet this sun was casually eaten by the golden cat, as if it was just a dessert.

Chu Wuyao felt that she understood why the bloodline of Cthulhu was called Twilight Cat.

After all, it was clear from that scene that its ancestors literally swallowed suns.

It truly deserved the name "Twilight Cat".

After she conducted a few more tests, Chu Wuyao finally exited the Twilight Cat state.

Through these tests, she understood that the ability she previously used was not the ability that the golden cat used, but a downgraded version of it.

Even then, Chu Wuyao was satisfied.

After all, Cthulhu was not a real Twilight Cat, but just a distant descendant with a thin trace of its bloodline.

In fact, it couldn't be considered a Twilight Cat at all.

Thinking of Cthulhu, Chu Wuyao turned her head and found that it had already recovered from its shock of almost being swallowed and it acted as if it had already forgotten about it.

At the moment, Cthulhu was sitting at a corner of the room and was working hard, trying to recover from the loss of its strength as soon as possible.

Seeing that the unreliable cat was working so hard, Chu Wuyao felt that as its master, she couldn't slack off.

Her eyes glowed with a dazzling purple light and she lowered her head, looking down at her own body.

Her glowing eyes were able to pass through her superficial appearance and in the end, she looked at the essence of her existence, her soul.

Chu Wuyao was transparent and looked exactly like her, perfectly matching the posture of her physical body.

As Chu Wuyao looked at it, a purple mist appeared right next to it and the next moment, this purple mist drilled right into her soul.

This purple mist was instantly absorbed and immediately, her soul became a little more substantial, as if it was turning from something illusory to something real.

At the corner of Chu Wuyao's eyes, a system prompt had appeared at unknown time.

[Original Desire Soul: Through the use of their emotions and desires, a cultivator can enhance the strength of their soul. If this skill is practiced to perfection, the cultivator's soul will be able to survive even without the support of their physical body.]

After Chu Wuyao briefly glanced at the skill's description, she closed the system prompt and fully turned her attention to her soul.

Under her observation, the strength of her soul was rapidly improving.

While Chu Wuyao entered seclusion in order to enhance her strength as much as possible and obtain a sense of security, a strange visitor arrived at the Inner Area.

This visitor had long blue hair her reached their waist and a pair of blue eyes that perfectly matched the color of her hair, making her look very beautiful.

Her proud figure, coupled with her temperament, made this woman look extremely charming.

If Chu Wuyao was here, she would instantly realize that this woman was the famous senior sister Yue, the idol of countless outer disciples.

However, at this time, senior sister Yue's face was pale and her eyes were red, as if she hadn't slept in a long time.

Her steps were slow and uneven as she trotted through the Inner Area, until she finally stopped in front of a luxurious building.

After knocking on the door, she pushed it open and walked inside, then climbed down a staircase and reached an underground room.

"What's up, did the talismans I gave you ran out again?"

The moment she stepped into the underground room, a gentle male voice that was filled with concern reached her ears.

"What happened? Why did you end up like this?"

The next second, a young man flashed next to her and look at her with clear worry in his eyes.

Seeing the young man, a flash of hope flashed in senior sister Yue's eyes, but she quickly hid it.

"Senior brother Lu, you have to help me."

"A powerful outer disciple appeared in the Outer Area and because she coveted my brother's items, she ruthlessly killed him."

"I went to ask for an explanation, but she shamelessly attacked me too."

"In desperation, I could only bring up your name, but she ridiculed you and said that you're trash and not worthy of her respect."

"I was originally planning to teach her a lesson for disrespecting you, but I just learned not long ago that she broke through the Shackles Realm and became an inner disciple."

As she spoke, senior sister Yue choked and tears continuously poured down her cheeks.

She raised her hands and put them in front of her face, seemingly wanting to hide her embarrassing appearance.

However, from the corner of her eyes, she glanced at the young man with expectation, wanting to see his reaction.

Just as she was expecting, an angry expression appeared on senior brother Lu's expression and his eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty.

Seeing this, senior sister Yue was relieved.

She knew that the young man in front of her was Lu Yuan, an inner disciple whose realm had reached the Late Stage of the Shackles Realm.

As long as he took action, even if Chu Wuyao had broken through, she would have no chance to survive at all.

This was the only reliable way senior sister Yue found in order to get rid of Chu Wuyao and ensure her safety.

That's right. Senior sister Yue no longer cared about the death of her brother.

The only thing she wanted at the moment was to survive!

And to do so, she had to get rid of Chu Wuyao!

"Hmph! So what if you're stronger than me? In the world of cultivation, strength isn't everything." Enjoy new stories from My Virtual Library Empire

"To survive in this world, you still have to rely on connections.", senior sister Yue sneered inwardly, but on the surface, she showed a frail and hurt appearance.

She knew very well that Lu Yuan had always had a crush on her and he had been pestering her for a long time.

In the past few months, she had received countless valuable gifts from him and he was the main reason why her cultivation had improved so quickly.

In fact, just like Lu Yuan, there were many other people that were courting her, but Lu Yuan was one with the strongest strength and status among them, so she chose to come to him.

Secretly, senior sister Yue had some contempt for the young man in front of her.

Although his strength was stronger than hers and he was an inner disciple, wasn't he still chasing after her like a lost dog?
