Chapter 340 – Cat Dad's New Dao is Useless?
CLANK
Xiaomao, Undine, Nymph, and all crew got separated. Each was imprisoned in a single-room cell.
The dungeon of the Mermaid Royal Palace was a prison building with several sea monsters patrolling around as wardens. The greenish stone walls, crystal bars, and the square room with nothing but sea algae were the only things Xiaomao could see.
In front of Xiaomao's cell, a scylla floated freely in the water, dozing off on the job. Although the royal guards just put Xiaomao and his crew in here, the half-woman half-octopus didn't seem to care much about the new inmates.
Xiaomao admired the physique of the warden. Like Nymph in her early days, she only wore a clam bikini to cover her nipples. However, her thick tentacle legs had nothing to cover. Sometimes, she accidentally revealed her private part to Xiaomao while she was half-asleep.
He thought of the other scyllas in town. Most of them have similar tentacles, and they averagely had eight to twelve legs. A few evolved ones with high levels transformed their tentacles into serpents, and their minions looked as intimidating as hydras.
One of the nastiest scyllas that Xiaomao had seen in town featured eight wolf heads, which guarded her belly area. Bellow the wolves, an additional abdomen similar to a spider body attached to her belly. Countless tentacles and the combination of various serpent heads moved around as if they had a consciousness of their own.
Xiaomao didn't get to check the level of that intimidating scylla. Fortunately, she wasn't interested in the festival or his existence when the commotion occurred.
Thinking of the monster girl, Xiaomao was strangely aroused. He shook his head to get rid of the unnecessary thoughts.
'I have nothing to do in the prison. I should cultivate.'
Utilizing the valuable free time, Xiaomao closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into his pocket dantian.
.
.
After coming back to his pocket dantian, Xiaomao contemplated what he lacked and his flaws in the previous squabble.
First, his Dao Avatar Domain was too weak. Although the combo was effective against stronger foes, the effect duration was too short.
Secondly, all swords and combat techniques were useless against the immortals. His speed was far inferior to the top immortals of the mermaid kingdom.
And lastly, when the crisis arose, his brain shut down, and he couldn't think straight. The only thing he could rely on was muscle memory and instinct, aka the lewd stuff.
Xiaomao was aware that the disparity between levels and cultivation bases played a huge role, but he was unsatisfied with his current state. He had a big dream – He wished to be able to fight toe to toe with stronger foes.
He thought of the festival. Xiaomao believed that he did well surviving the onslaught of Alice and 10,000 strong residents of the Mermaid Kingdom, but he could have done better. The cat dad also reflected on his mistake that he shouldn't have revealed his secrets to outsider too easily and caused a problem in the long run.
There were so many things to learn from the commotion today. While resting in the pocket dantian, he meditated. He imagined several different scenarios and simulated potential results if he took another action instead of doing what he did.
The results were all disasters. Xiaomao lacked imagination and a true understanding of an immortal's strength, causing him to overestimate an immortal's abilities. In the end, all simulations ended with his death.
"This won't do!"
Xiaomao was furious. He summoned the sparring mode menu and browsed the list of clones.
Instead of summoning Wei Huang and resuming his training, he searched for a certain individual.
Duchess Alice
Without thinking, Xiaomao decreased her difficulty to 1% and reduced her cultivation base to match his strength. Then, he ordered the clone to come out.
DING
A loli succubus appeared in the pocket dantian. As the potential difficulty was set to the lowest, the girl with bat wings clumsily walked around the grassland and admired the scenery.
Then, Xiaomao approached her.
"Hi, girl. Want to see a snake enter a hole?"
.

CRITICAL HIT!
CRITICAL HIT!
CRITICAL HIT!
DOUBLE CRITICAL HIT!
TRIPLE CRITICAL HIT!
.
.
Venting his frustration on a clone proved to be beneficial to Xiaomao's cultivation base. By absorbing Alice's Life Essence, Xiaomao completed three more Life Essence Sea.
Moreover, Alice possessed the concentrated dark element Qi. Xiaomao immediately absorbed some of her element Qi and increased the power of True Corruption Dao. In addition, the Unholy Spiritual Root benefited from the upgrade.
DING
<Your Dark Element Foundation Attribute has reached 200,000. The Dark Element Sea has completed the golden core.>
Xiaomao couldn't see or hear the game notification message's sound in the pocket dantian. However, his real body could. Because of Xiaomao's instinct, his consciousness briefly jumped back to reality to check the message before he returned to the pocket dantian.
RUMBLE
The crude oil sea became solid and turned into a vast wasteland of black rocks. The violet aurora started forming Xiaomao's face, and it gazed upon the black land. A few minutes later, the face and the remaining aurora light condensed and created a massive golden orb, hovering over the black wasteland.
Black sprouts budded and rapidly grew on the rocks. After a few minutes, it turned into a dark grassland that produced black smog into the air, surrounding and protecting the golden core of Dark Element.
Next to the black land, the Unholy Spiritual Root occupied a newly formed Life Essence Sea. A new crude oil sea was formed, but it moved as if it was alive.
DING
<The Dark Element Foundation has been completed. Additional Dark Element Foundation's value will now increase the size of the foundation and strengthen the Unholy Spiritual Root.>
<The Unholy Spiritual Root Attribute has surpassed 100,000. It has been upgraded to Unholy Element Foundation!>
No new element was derived from the Unholy Element. However, Xiaomao waited for his body to generate a new Dao so that he would have a new power.
DING
<Due to your personality, bloodline, and recent experiences, a new Dao Seed has been derived from the Unholy Element Foundation!>
<You have unlocked the Dao Seed of Curses.>
"Curses?"
The Dao was a bit vague, and Xiaomao had no idea what it could do. He called out his Dao Avatar right away to see the shape and the appearance of his other persona.
"MUNYA!"
A black catopus appeared. Its red pupils and obnoxious grin looked cute, but his facial expression seemed to be hiding malicious intents. Furthermore, the eight tentacle tips of this black catopus resembled male genitalia...
Xiaomao changed his mind. It looked CURSED!
Before Xiaomao could command it to show him the power, it pointed all eight tentacle tips at him. Then, it showered him with sticky white liquid.
"WHERE SEGGS, MUNYA?"
"…"
Xiaomao was speechless. This Dao Avatar inherited the immature side of him when he was in heat. Indeed, its existence was UNHOLY!
He dismissed the Dao Avatar, and the cat whined, "NO SEGGS? LAMEEEEE!"
"…"
Xiaomao took a mental note. He would never summon this Dao Avatar or use its power unless he faced a tough female opponent that he couldn't tame.
After dismissing the Dao Avatar, Xiaomao closed his eyes and counted the number of his available Life Essence Seas.
He had four available, which was enough for four more elemental foundations.
Xiaomao snickered and thought of the item that Joan had given him. The orb contained the element that essence that Xiaomao didn't have.
He immediately returned his consciousness to his real body and searched through his inventory. He brought the orb out and inspected it.

Orb of Condensed Virgin Yin Element Essence
Long in the past, the gods of Asgard ordered the Valkyries and many female warriors to pursue the Dao of Virgin Yin. All Valkyries complied and turned it into a tradition. Everybody started cultivating Virgin Yin Element Essence, hoping to obtain the Virgin Yin Dao. However, the latter generations forgot why they had to do so, and the tradition wasn't so sacred anymore. In the end, a few valkyries from the early generations created these orbs and passed them down to their juniors, hoping that they would continue their legacies and traditions.
Joan, one of the latter-generation valkyries, was once the owner of this orb. She failed to obtain the Virgin Yin Element as she was not a virgin. Still, she kept it with her until the end of her life.

.
Xiaomao deeply sighed. He couldn't use it. Even if he could, the element might have a dire side effect for men.
"I don't want to turn into a sissy, munya. Oh, well."
Before Xiaomao put the item into his inventory, the newest Dao Avatar suddenly came out. The black catopus laughed as he looked at the orb.
"SURPRISE, MOTHERMUNYA!"
<You have activated the Unholy Dao Avatar Domain – Curse Domain!>
<A new curse has been randomly generated.>
<You have used the Curse of Polarization to the Orb of Condensed Virgin Yin Element Essence!>
<The Orb of Condensed Virgin Yin Element Essence's effects and name have changed!>
The black catopus Dao Avatar flashed, and the orb in Xiaomao's hands changed color to black. Then, the content and the description of the orb changed.
Orb of Condensed Sigma Element Essence
