Villain Cultivator

Chapter 522 – Chow Time, Boys

'Haiya… my fucking protagonist luck…'

Miaomiao inwardly sighed as he figured what had influenced this entire event.

Protagonists had the tendency of finding troubles as well as fortuitous encounters. Even if Miaomiao was blessed by the lady luck, he would still be harassed by random villains.

'I guess I have to increase my cultivation base ASAP so these mofos can't look down on me anymore. Jeez, they knew that Lilith and Devil had my back, but they are still messing with me.'

As the system had informed Miaomiao – The intelligence of local villains would always be decreased by 50% whenever he was nearby.

"Fine. Let my wives go, and I'll fight."

Karen sneered and released the restriction arrays. She tossed the women into the room.

Liu Che bit his lower lips and looked at his son. He wanted to say something to Liu Hanzhen, but he gave up.

Liu Hanzhen failed to notice his father's worries. He laughed and proceeded to the stage while he leered at Miaomiao's wives.

"Just stay there and behave. I'll come back to claim all of you later."

Dian Wei bared her fangs. Her killing intent locked on to Liu Hanzhen, getting ready to pounce him and tear him to a thousand pieces.

However, the immortal guardians of the Liu Clan stood before Liu Hanzhen, blocking Dian Wei's path.

Miaomiao patted the spider, "Stay back. I'll handle that piece of shit."

Dian Wei clicked her tongue, "That guy is dangerous, Miaomiao. He might even be stronger than me."

"Have faith in your husband, will ya?"

"But you never defeat me in a duel…"

"I'll show you something amazing. By the way…" Miaomiao snickered and jumped on Dian Wei's spider back. He pressed his index finger on the back of her neck, "How many souls have you devoured so far?"

"I've lost count. Why?"

"I probably know why you can't advance to the immortal realm. For now, relax and let my power guide you."

A strand of negative karma from his left eye navigated from the head to his chest, then flowed to his right arm toward the index finger.

The karma string gathered at the tip of the finger. However, something inside Dian Wei's neck reacted to the strand of negative karma.

"This might hurt a bit."

For the sake of hiding his secret, he purposely stabbed the back of Dian Wei's soft neck with his finger.

Dian Wei widened her eyes in shock. Although the action seemed threatening, she had faith in Miaomiao that he wouldn't harm her for no reason.

Dian Wei's flesh was like a murky slime. At a glance, she looked like a half-human half-spider. However, her physique was a combination of condensed elemental essence, soul Qi, her nascent soul, and soul dantian.

She cultivated a unique technique that Nero had taught her, the Elemental Soul Physique. It granted her the providence of elements, which enabled her to cultivate element providence in the future.

Miaomiao could feel the dense element essence inside her. It pressed on his finger as if the element essence wanted to crush it.

As soon as the fingertip of Miaomiao dug into the flesh of Dian Wei, a hundred thousand Karma Centipede eggs latched onto his finger and entered his flesh. A hundred invisible centipedes also entered his flesh through the gap of his fingernail.

Miaomiao endured the prickling pain and accepted all the food. He moved his finger around inside Dian Wei's neck to attract more centipedes.

"Eh?"

Dian Wei felt that something in her neck suddenly disappeared. The unusable parts in her meridians were unclogged, and her Soul Qi flowed faster than usual.

Miaomiao slowly pulled his finger out. The wound in her neck automatically healed itself.

Ding

<You have collected 634,326 eggs of Karma Centipede.>

<You have collected 522 Karma Centipedes babies.>

<You have chosen not to digest the karma centipedes for the time being.>

<Warning, Karma Centipedes consume the host's Soul Qi and Soul Essence to grow. Please eliminate them from your system as soon as possible.>

'I know Dion. Let me keep them as my backup batteries.'

Since Miaomiao couldn't use Soul Qi, he didn't mind keeping a few centipedes inside him. They could do nothing to him anyway.

Instead, Miaomiao had a few ideas that he wanted to try. He wondered if he could use these centipedes as weapons in fights.

After granting Dian Wei his blessing, Miaomiao turned to Ma Xingjuan and Kang Yan.

"Come to think of it, has any of you consumed a soul pill or someone's soul?"

Ma Xingjuan and Kang Yan shook their heads. Even if they did, they didn't want to get poked by his finger. Moreover, what Miaomiao had done just now looked torturous and painful.

"Oh, cool. Once I return, I'll recheck you girls later. It's better safe than sorry."

The girls shivered in fear and hugged each other.

Bullying his wives enough, Miaomiao decided to enter the arena.

As Miaomiao walked by Liu Che, the latter whispered, "Please don't kill my son. Just cripple him or make him half-dead."

"I'll try. I also don't want to ruin our future relationship and alliance."

"Thanks, junior."

…

When Miaomiao and Liu Hanzhen left the backstage through the arena entrance, the spectators, who never left the stadium, let out a loud cheer.

Cultivators were weird, lazy, pretentious, yet patient creatures. They didn't need to sleep or eat. Even if they do, they simply ate a grain pill or a piece of herb to self-sustain.

They didn't need to go to the restroom either. These cultivators simply melted whatever they ate and excreted through their sweats if they needed to.

Moreover, some of them usually holed up in caves, forests, or ancient ruins, but they rarely took a bath! As such, many cultivators had strong body odor.

The stadium stands emitted foul gas as these people had gathered here for several weeks. As for hygiene lovers, they already booked box rooms to avoid the smell.

Karen also came out of the VIP Box Room to announce the opening match of the Clan Lord Tournament.

"How long have you all been waiting? How were the awesome fights between continent representatives?"

YEAHHHHHHH

The crowd cheered and reacted to Karen.

"Today is different. Instead of taking a break, the Clan Lord Tournament shall begin! Of course, we have already drawn the lotteries, and we have arranged the schedule."

Karen turned to Liu Hanzhen and Miaomiao, who had been glaring at each other.

"The opening match today is none other than the irregular clan leader, who gets this far with only the cultivation base of Core Pillar Realm, Mao Miaomiao!"

BOOOOOOOO

For some reason, the crowd didn't like Miaomiao.

Miaomiao, who was climbing the stairs toward the stage arena, turned around to look at the crowd. He covered his nose as these people's body odor and breathe were smellier than brown water from the heap of wet trash.

Suddenly, the jeering sound faded. The people that had looked into Miaomiao's eyes were captivated by his natural beauty.

"W-Who is that stunner?"

Everyone wanted to know more about Miaomiao, but they didn't recognize him.

Then, Karen pointed at Miaomiao, "This is the person in question, the patriarch of the Mao Clan, Mao Miaomiao!"

"WHAT?!"

Many people stood up and looked at Miaomiao's appearance in shock.

At first, they thought that he was a contestant or a staff that came out to help Karen. But once Karen revealed his identity, the spectators were astonished.

Mao Miaomiao in their memory was a cocky guy. But the stunner on the stage looked like a pretty teenage demon girl.

Some of the crowd had a hard time controlling their feeling. Their heart raced, and the jealousy upon Miaomiao subsided.

They subconsciously fell in love with him!

Miaomiao suddenly had goosebumps, and his right eyebrow twitched.

He hurried and looked away from the spectators. He turned to face his opponent, who came out from the opposite gate.

Standing in the arena, Miaomiao could still smell the foul odor. His face distorted in disgust.

"Jesus Christ. I must say… as expected of Chinese ancient culture. But damn, they stink!"

Liu Hanzhen sneered and sized up Miaomiao's figure.

Currently, Miaomiao was still in his purple demon form. His slender figure looked similar to an adolescent woman with AAA chest size, and his face was even prettier than local women.

For a brief moment, Liu Hanzhen had the urge to imprison Miaomiao and use him as a sex toy. But when he remembered that Miaomiao was a man, he clicked his tongue in disgust.

"What are you talking about? Aren't you the dirtiest one among us?"

"Why? I took a bath this morning, though," Miaomiao sniffed his armpit. There was no smell.

"It is your purple skin, your look, and your demon blood, you heretic! What kind of cultivator cultivates evil arts to the point that his skin becomes the same color as corpses? You're a disgrace to humanity and us, human cultivators!"

"That's racism. What's wrong with having purple skin?"

"Very wrong. The world belongs to humans, not the likes of you, demon worshiper!"

Miaomiao sneered. He no longer thought of himself as a human anymore after inheriting so many kinds of dragon bloodlines and cultivating many evil arts.

"So?"

Liu Hanzhen sneered and pointed at Miaomiao's face, "I tell you what. You and your kind don't deserve to be on the same stage as I, the chosen one of the Great Liu Clan! I'm destined for something great, while you, a demon worshiper, are destined to be a stepping stone for my greatness!"

Miaomiao sighed. This random conversation was going nowhere.

He didn't know what Liu Hanzhen's point was. The guy's insult was bland, and it wasted his time.

Miaomiao decided to speak with his action.

He covered his face and head with the War God Visor. He slowly transformed and wore the Dragon Armor Suit.

Seeing that Miaomiao was preparing for combat, Liu Hanzhen also equipped his heaven-grade protective gear. He wore an ancient plate mail and a warrior helmet. Then, he brought out a broadsword from his spatial ring.

All items of Liu Hanzhen were heaven-grade. Every single piece contained a weapon spirit.

The presence of the weapons and armor delighted the spectators. Their noise got louder.

Karen immediately signaled the start of the match.

Without looking at Karen's signal, Liu Hanzhen raised his sword to the sky and unleashed his domain power.

The domain swept through the entire stage, trapping Miaomiao in the transparent dome.

Liu Hanzhen pointed the tip of his sword and commanded, "Kneel, bitch!"

"???"

Miaomiao tilted his head in confusion. He wondered what Liu Hanzhen was doing.

Suddenly, Miaomiao's knee grew weak. His body moved by itself, and his legs were slowly bending.

"Oh? I see."

This was Liu Hanzhen's domain power, the Tyrant Domain. Everyone weaker than him inside the dome had to follow his absolute commands. Even if he told someone to commit suicide, they had to do so!

'Interesting power.'

Miaomiao took a mental note. He would spar against Liu Hanzhen's clones to steal this ability later.

But for now, he had to free himself from the restraints. Miaomiao sent his telepathic voice to Killer Queen.

Killer Queen unsheathed herself. Then, she swung the katana horizontally, tracing the bright red line that he saw.

Death Point Perception!

CLANK

Just like that, the domain was shattered, and the skill was cancelled.

Liu Hanzhen narrowed his eyes, "So, you can use a Sword Dao. No wonder you can get this far. But it's useless against me!"

The prince summoned his Dao Spirit. The spirit had Liu Hanzhen's face, but he wore the uniform of an ancient China emperor.

Liu Hanzhen and his Dao Spirit merged. Then, his body grew taller.

His cultivation base suddenly spiked, and his aura became the same as an Immortal Soldier, the first rank of immortal realm.

"You're dead, demon! Stupid slaves, come out!"

Liu Hanzhen pointed his finger at Miaomiao again. This time, a million ghost soldiers appeared and surrounded Miaomiao. Each of them had the aura of immortal soldiers as well.

"WOAH!!"

The crowd was excited. They had never seen someone who could summon so many strong ghosts to use in combat.

Miaomiao frowned. He turned to Karen, "Hey, can he use helpers or summon skills? Isn't this against the rules?"

Karen paused for a moment. She then averted her eyes and made an excuse, "Dao Spirits and Dao Avatars are within the rules. He can use them."

"But you clearly said... meh, never mind. You said it yourself, alright? No taking back."

"O-Of course. I remember the rules."

Since Karen changed the rules on a whim, Miaomiao had an idea how he could capitalize on this.

He circulated the Unholy Karma Element Qi and thought of the giant snakes on the element continent.

RUMBLE

A dome of darkness covered the entire arena. It was a similar domain power that the 8th-stage undead lich used to cast on him.

Elemental Domain, Darkness Domain

Liu Hanzhen couldn't see or hear anything inside this domain. He spread his Qi sense to check his surroundings. However, he couldn't sense anything other than himself!

That was not all. Sinister beings came out from Miaomiao's shadow.

A million pairs of glowing red eyes of giant snakes stared down at the ghost soldiers around them.

"Chow time, boys."
