Life Drain System Chapter 70

...and Yueliang drops one of the cultivation pills of stamina into Shen Hus' mouth. He swallows it, and over the next few seconds he could feel the energy flood into his body while running.
"Whew, this feels amazing, what did you give me? Also, thank you, we might just make it out before them at this rate." Shen Hu said whilst feeling as though he is weightless every step he takes while running though the woods.
"I just gave you a pill of stamina, and while it is meant for human cultivators, I figured it should not harm an animal cultivator right? Also, I activated the sprint and dash abilities I have on you, so that we have a higher chance of making it out alive." Yueliang replies.
"Please tell me that you are joking?" Shen Hu hopefully asks.
"Why do you say that? Did I do something wrong?"
"Ugh, no point in being upset now, you did not know, and what is done is done." Shen Hu sighs while still running.
"Could you at least explain to me what is wrong?" Yueliang asks.
"Well first off, before I explain that, I should probably mention that I will end up slowing down by a lot very soon."
"What? Why?"
"Please let me finish. Firstly it is because my cultivation will break very soon. Now to explain why, humans and animals have two entirely different cultivation path ways. That is not to say that one cannot use an animal cultivation technique, or vice versa. However the problem is they would have to change the path to fit their body.
With that brief explanation, I will continue. If someone takes a cultivation pill not initially created for their race, there is a 99% chance it will cripple their cultivation. However if by some chance you are unfortunate enough to hit the 1% chance, it will damage your cultivation which is worse. As for the first one you can just restart as long as you can live long enough and can survive getting it crippled. Although for the second, well, you will not be able to progress any further. Hence why cultivators feel so protective of their cultivation." Shen Hu explains as he starts gradually slowing down, feeling his cultivation breaking apart gradually with each passing second.
"I am so sorry I did not know. ..." Yueliang said but gets cut off.

Cutting Yueliang off there, Shen Hu says. "It is alright, I know you were just trying to save our lives. Plus, I still have time to cultivate, the only thing we have to worry about now is surviving. By the way, are you capable of running?"
"Yes, but."
"No buts. You will jump off my back, and run, I will hide, then catch up with you when I can, got it?"
"Got it."
"Great, now go!" Shen Hu says as he abruptly stops, sending Yueliang flying ahead, thinking. 'Survive my king, my friend, and please take care of my family.'
Flying through the air, Yueliang looks back, and sees the tiger moving slower and slower trying to hide, and climb up a tree. 'Please live on Shen Hu, and please come back to us.' Yue thought to himself as he lands on the ground.
'Come on, just a little more.' Shen Hu thinks to himself while trying to climb higher feeling extremely weak.
Turning around, Yueliang picks up a rock, and then with all his strength as well as the assistance of his cultivation, raises his hand above his head, and then throws straight at one of the spiders heads.
*Boom
Yuelaing covers his ears upon hearing the sonic boom coming from the projectile he just released, while Shen Hu looks back to see what could cause such a loud sound. The sound even attracts all the spiders as they could feel the vibrations.
Watching the rock fly, Yueliang sees it go straight through the spider, and a blood mist appearing on the other side along with the rock still continuing to fly. It killed another 2 or so spiders after that one as well.
'Yes, perfect, now that I have their attention, time to run, and forget what I said earlier.' Yueliang thought to himself as he turns tail and runs. A few seconds later he thinks to himself. 'Yang, I need a flying motorcycle, preferably one that can be used in space.'
"Alright, for the space version it will cost more, 150 shop credits in total. Also, since there is no power source here, nor gas, or anything else, this is the mana powered version. It is in your inventory, you know as you get better at making things, you could try making a chi reliant one, as that would be easier for cultivators, rather than having to convert to mana each time." Yang replies.

'Great, thank you. Also, I will try to work on doing that later.' Yue responds while pulling out the flying motorcycle, and hoping onto it in one fluid motion. Quickly starting it up, he starts driving straight forward adjusting the speed like on a regular motorcycle, then using his thumb on the joy stick to adjust the altitude, he starts flying into the sky much to the surprise of the spiders and Shen Hu. The spiders, so shocked they stop in place, some even running into each other or into the trees around them.
Flying up into the sky, Yueliang weaves between the trees, turning to his left until he is completely facing the direction he came from. He heads towards Shen Hu, and as he gets closer, so too do the spiders, in the hopes that they will have another tasty meal, as well as vengeance for their brethren who were killed by that flying rock.
'Hmm, too bad I cannot kill all these spiders however it does give me a good idea to think about once I get back.' Yueliang thought to himself while flying at a high speed and shouting. "Shen Hu, get ready to jump on, I will only have a split second to stop and move!"
Surprised, yet at the same time, not surprised, as he knew Yueliangs personality he got into a jumping position. Yue pulls the flying motorcycle sideways as if he was drifting into a perfect parallel park job and stopping. He jumps onto the bike, shifting into human form as fast as he can while in mid air, then landing on the motorcycle, the two immediately take off right as to massive fangs slice through their previous position.
"Phew, talk about close right, Shen Hu?" Yueliang said in a relieved yet joking tone.
"Yes, however such close calls, I would rather not have to experience if I do not need too." Shen Hu replies as he could nearly feel the fang brush across his back as he landed.
"Well now we should just try getting out of the forest again." Yueliang said as he starts flying above the tree line.
"Hahaha, about that, they are actually in the woods, just pretty deep in them. By the way, I wonder why they came after us as I am a divine beast?" Shen Hu corrected.
Stopping the flying motorcycle in mid air Yueliang says. "Hold up, I thought you said they were on the other side of the woods? So are you telling me we have to face more creatures like that?"
"Well, I am pretty sure I never said they were out side of the woods. You were the one hoping that by getting into the sunlight we could avoid the spiders. Also, do you really imagine people who focus on the physical aspect of their lives would live in such a peaceful place without many difficulties in living?" Shen Hu asked kind of surprised Yue did not see such things coming.
"Ugh, fine, how much longer until we arrive in this den of wolves?" Yue ask.
"About two hours left if we continue at the speed you used to escape the spiders. Also, that is quite the accurate analogy for them, except they would be worse then wolves. By the way, considering I sense mana from this, you may want to stop a certain distance out."
"Why is that?"
"Well, for one, they hate those who use mana, if you want them to like you, you should probably avoid that. Using brute strength and your, what was it, aura then they should like you a lot. Also, while intelligence is respected there, do not try using it to ease their lives or they will not like you."
"I see, so basically, they like difficulty as it makes them stronger. They do not like ease of effort as it breeds weakness right? It was a saying in my old world, people believed long ago, and it seems they were right." Yue replies.
"You are certainly correct when it comes to it breeding weakness. Why do you think it is so difficult for mages to beat these people. Also why do you think there are body cultivators, not that such people have lived on this planet for a long time, but some beasts do such cultivation." Shen Hu explains.
The two continue talking for a while, before Shen Hu finally says. "We should land here, we can run the next 30 minutes, if you do not want to tick them off that is."

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
