'Hmm, nice, my raw strength isn't that lower than that of a gorilla.' Theo was satisfied with the results. Now, he only needed to draw his sword and finish it off.
It was natural for a beast to be physically stronger than a human of the same stage. This gorilla had huge, thick arms and muscles, placing it among the strongest beasts when it came to raw strength. Humans usually relied on techniques and weapons to hunt down beasts of the same rank.
Theo's amazing foundation, thanks to his high-ranked manual, allowed him to defeat the animal in a bare fistfight like two thugs, but that wasn't normal.
*Ding!*
[Achievement: My Chest Drums Louder!]
[You have killed a first-rank Black Gorilla for the first time, you gain ten years of cultivation.]
'That path of slaughter is too lucrative!' Theo exclaimed. There were surely a few hundreds of species in this vast land of wilderness, right?
Of course, hunting them all down would take years, but it would be good if he could make a quick work out of a third of them. Seeing all the bugs and worms scurrying away, Theo quickly grabbed the gorilla's head and bashed it against the ground in a few spots.
*Ding!*
'Nice, four more years of cultivation for free.'
Indeed, there were four species of bugs he had never killed before in the mix.
"Ah, Senior Brother, what are you doing?" Lora asked, looking at him strangely. Seems like this man had some sadistic tendencies. Maybe she should let the others know so they can prepare accordingly…
"Ahm, nothing, I felt bad for interrupting its meal and wanted to allow it to enjoy that food after its death," Theo spoke nonsense without thinking twice.
"Oh," Lora nodded, "It makes sense," she lied. he considered ordering some leather whips from the city, playing the role of the victim as she screamed and begged for mercy during her senior brother's 'torture'… It would only be pretend; regular leather couldn't harm a Body Refining cultivator. Mm, she thought it was a clever idea.
"Oh, you are done with your fights as well," Theo looked at the bleeding animals. Lora's had only one wound, a deep stabbing injury that had pierced its heart. Shaia's gorilla was more miserable with a few slashes on its body.
"Yes, there weren't any second-rank gorillas," Shaia reported.
"Then let's rest for five minutes," Theo suggested. He believed it wasn't a bad spot, hidden from the wind and offering shelter and shade.
"Okay, but just five minutes and we must move. We should either find a cave that only allows one or two beasts to attack at once, or a place that has a few exits so we can run away if needed. If we could only enter one at a time, the gorillas could survive for longer," Lilia explained why that spot was actually bad.
Thinking that Theo had to reset his state of mind after his first battle, the three surrounded him to deal with any external dangers.
Meanwhile, the 'shaken' youth they had been worrying about, closed his eyes comfortably and began browsing his system. There were many missed notifications and unclaimed rewards.
'Status', he willed.
[Total years accumulated – 1202]
[Available Prizes - 8]
[Shop – Locked]
[Unopened notifications - 20]
"Fuck!" Theo jumped from his sitting position in surprise, making the girls unsheathe their swords in alarm.
"Senior Brother, did anything happen?" Lilia asked carefully, her eyes still touring the place in search of danger.
Shaia had other insights. "Senior Brother, maybe you want to do it right now? I think it's not a good idea, the place isn't very safe and it's still daylight… but maybe if the other two stand guard…" she glanced around, calculating the time it'd take.
"Oh, Junior Sisters, I was bitten by an ant while I was resting and it spooked me. Don't mind me," Theo made up another nonsense and sat down again.
"But why are you smiling so widely?"
"I'm happy it's just an ant."
Indeed, a huge smile was plastered on his face, and his heart raced, unable to calm down. He almost didn't dare believe what his eyes saw on the system panel!
'Status!' he tried again, just to make sure. This time, he stared blankly at one row.
[Total years accumulated – 1202]
"Hahahahaha… hahahaha…" he laughed out loud uncontrollably, almost wanting to sing praises to Veronica's butt in the mountains, letting the psalms of its holiness echo and spread to all beings.
'I only had 138 years of cultivation in stock yesterday… including the bugs and the gorilla, I would have 152. Then, sex with Veronica earned me a whooping sum of 1050 years at once!'
Sex is amazing!
Despite his regret for wasting time on unopened notifications last time, Theo chose to start from there again. He wished to know how he earned all those years.
'Unopened notifications.'
A long list of achievements welcomed his eyes, all related to things he had done with Veronica. He focused on the ones with the highest rewards of a hundred years or more.
[Achievement: Pluck a Flower]
[You have taken a woman's virginity for the first time, you get 120 years of cultivation.]
[Achievement: Is It a Cheesecake?]
[You have creampied a woman the first time, you get a hundred years of cultivation.]
[Achievement: A Selfless Man]
[You have made a woman get an orgasm for the first time, you get a hundred years of cultivation.]
[Achievement: Wow, It's a Water Park!]
[You have made a woman squirt for the first time, you get 150 years of cultivation.]
'Hehe, I'm a selfless man,' Theo giggled like a child finding a hidden pile of candy. The girls could only look at him in worry, thinking their senior brother's sanity was compromised. But Theo was too happy!
Those four achievements were the big guns that yielded him the best rewards, but other than them, there were plenty of others.
"Please Be Gentle with Me", an achievement for having sex for the first time, granting him 80 cultivation years.
"Hee-yah!" – an achievement for having sex in the cowgirl position, granting him 50 cultivation years.
"Yah-Hee!" – an achievement for the reversed cowgirl position, granting him another 50 cultivation years.
"Hello Lady, Eat My Candy" – 50 years for getting a blowjob. Theo believed there would be additional rewards for ejaculating orally, but that would be something for next time.
And the list was still long! There were rewards for doggy style, missionary, folding a woman, cumming from a woman's touch, spanking a butt, spanking boobs, and fingering a woman.
Each different position earned him fifty cultivation years, the spanking achievements were worth 20 years each, and the ejaculation was pretty neat, adding 80 cultivation years to his collection.
'If there's an achievement for ejaculating from a woman's touch, maybe I should try masturbating for rewards?' Theo thought to himself. There were no porn materials in this world, so he hadn't touched himself since appearing here.
After finding himself in a sect of women where everyone naturally loved and adored him, he chose to hold back from fapping and be a man of the big world, always having a junior sister or two to serve him, and never having to resort to underhanded tactics for pleasure.
But if it gave him rewards, maybe he should walk among the mortals once more…
'Forget it, it can't be over twenty or thirty years,' Theo decided. He had almost thirty women waiting for his semen, he couldn't afford to waste a round!
In his mind, he quickly labeled it as a measure of emergency, though. If one day he was lacking 20-30 years to save himself or those important to him, he could quickly grab his penguin and level up.
'I also have the foot fetish achievement on hold…' Theo remembered, and his previous imagination resurfaced.
In a grand battle of immortals and dragons in the sky, a handsome man from the losing side quickly descends and finds a wounded beautiful fairy lying weakly. The man removes her shoes and starts sucking on her toes, but this time, he also slides a hand underneath his pants, stroking and tugging with passion.
'Fuck! I must never be in such a situation!' Theo widened his eyes in horror, trying to remove the filthy image from his mind.
Forget the dao name 'Foot Immortal' if it ever happens, he would be labeled as a heretic of the cultivation world for sure!
'Creepy Foot Immortal' or 'Desperate for Toes Supreme'. Who knows what kinds of names he would have by then…
'Forget it, let's see the rest of the notifications,' Theo shook his head vigorously to clean his mind from useless thoughts. There were some older notifications he had missed.
