Villain Cultivator

Chapter 557 – To Eden Garden Sect

'Demonic War Seraphim? A combat-oriented fallen angel?'

Miaomiao immediately opened his system menu to inspect his current status.

Ding

'Dammit, Dion! Why now?!'

"…"

Dion had a point. Dantian farmlands and quarries could be upgraded, and they required Asmodeus Bloodline. As such, Miaomiao wouldn't be able to upgrade it without the new update.

Miaomiao closed the menu, and Dion began installing the new update.

Ding-Dong-Dung-Dong

The sound of the window shutdown was clearly audible in Miaomiao's mind. Dion had rebooted her system and underwent maintenance.

Miaomiao was disappointed. Now, he could only check his new abilities with his Qi sense or the simulation mode.

He transmitted his thoughts to the other consciousness in the dantian space to check for his new abilities. As for his real body, he turned his attention to Adam.

Miaomiao and Adam's eyes met, and the latter gestured Miaomiao to follow him.

"We need to park the continent here. We can't use any vehicle from this point on since Eden's gravity will destroy the continent if we drive it further in. Oh, as for Cernunnos, nobody can enter or play with it since I've already placed a seal on it. If any moron enters the continent, their cultivation base will be permanently sealed."

Miaomiao gazed at the Aves Continent, now known as Cernunnos. A blue semi-transparent dome enveloped the entire flying island, and a large warning signboard was placed on top of the dome.

[No Trespassing. Violators Will Be Permanently Crippled!]

[Signed, Adam olo]

Miaomiao's face turned into a pokerface meme when he discovered the naughty scribble of a penis behind Adam's signature. He turned to Adam and gave him a puzzled look.

"That's my signature. There are many people with my name, so I always drew that thing to represent me."

"A penis doodle of all things?"

"'Cause nobody is shameless enough to include a penis in their signatures."

"…"

Miaomiao agreed. In the modern world, only freaks would add vulgar doodles in their official signatures. He wondered what a bank clerk or a government official would react had they found someone's signature with a penis scribble.

"Anyway. Ignore that. Let's go."

…

Adam guided Miaomiao toward the largest planet beyond the chain network. However, the distance from their current location and the planet was over a billion kilometers.

The distance between the black sun and their current location was almost 7 times the distance between modern Earth and Sun. Yet, they could see the massive planet with naked eyes.

From outer space, this planet's size seemed endless as it was at least a quadrillion times larger than Golden Heavenly Goose Planet. It resembled a massive black hole and reminded Miaomiao of UY Scuti, the largest sun in the universe that Miaomiao had learned from a documentary film.

The gravity of the Black Sun was also intense. As soon as Miaomiao got within the billion-kilometer range, he sensed the strong force. His bones were in pain because of the insane gravity pressure.

It felt as if he was deep underwater, and everything was crushing his body.

Adam looked back and shook his head in disappointment.

"I guess you will reach your limit soon because of your current cultivation base."

Miaomiao understood Adam's meaning. This place seemed like one of the dangerous locations in novels.

These places usually hid precious treasures or a legacy of a strong cultivator. The pressure and the repelling forces from the center were always weak in the outer rings, but it was stronger the further in.

The logic seemed to apply here.

"What's with the gravity?!"

"See the sun over there?" Adam pointed at the humongous sun that was covered in black flame.

"Don't tell me that Eden Garden is in there?! Are the outward appearance and the flame actually a defensive array?"

"Exactly! You're smarter than I thought!"

"…"

Miaomiao's imagination was shattered. Reality and fantasy were always different.

He had imagined Eden Garden World as a green planet, blanketed by endless lush forests and mountains. But in this universe, it was hidden behind a FIREWALL, literally.

RUMBLE

The air in space trembled and countless long chains, which extended from the sun, were waving by the solar flare's force.

The extreme heat soon got to Miaomiao and Adam.

Adam sighed and stood in front of Miaomiao. A small barrier shield appeared around Miaomiao and Adam, protecting them from the extreme solar flare's temperature.

Even so, Miaomiao's clothes were burnt to crisp. His archangel disguise was canceled, leaving him with only a naked charred body.

The burnt skin slowly came off as Miaomiao's regeneration ability kicked in. After he was healed, he still looked the same as Devil's original body.

But the burn caused Miaomiao's body to transform. His jawline, body proportion, and skin became more refined. Unfortunately, his skin color was still purple.

Then, Miaomiao sensed sharp pain from his back.

SWUA

Six black feather wings grew from Miaomiao's back. The shining wings instantly grew more feathers and ejected the old ones.

The discarded feathers latched onto Miaomiao's purple back, and they merged with his skin. Then, black scale armor slowly formed as if Miaomiao had activated his Nano Suit.

Ten seconds later, a new body armor suit was completed. It was the replacement of the War God Suit as it was made by the Demonic Seraphim's feathers.

Now, he looked more handsome. The previous gender-bent look was gone.

Previously, Miaomiao's blood was overflown with Primordial Yin, so it transformed his physique to resemble a woman.

But now, he obtained enough Primordial Yang from the seraphim bloodline. The Yin Yang balance was stabilized, and Miaomiao could remain true to his original gender.

After the transformation, Miaomiao didn't feel the heat anymore. Instead, the solar flare was a bit chilly.

"I feel better now," Miaomiao grinned as he inspected his new armor suit. Though it felt weird since he was going commando.

Adam glanced at Miaomiao's black wings and black armor suit. He sighed, "I guess you're the opposite of me. I cultivate good karma while you cultivate negative karma. My seraphim armor is silver, but yours is black."

"You probably have too much Primordial Yang, senior."

"Nah. My biceps would have been bigger than my head in that case. I think my Yin Yang Balance is fine. Well, enough chitchat. Can you continue?"

"Sure."

…

Adam and Miaomiao proceeded at a slow pace. The former intentionally waited for Miaomiao to adjust to his new power and the pressure from the black sun.

Meanwhile, Miaomiao was struggling. Even being boosted by the Black War God Suit, the gravity force exhausted Miaomiao.

So far, Miaomiao reached the 900 million kilometer mark, and he could see another space station network. A massive barrier array also protected them from the heat, pressure, and frequent solar flare.

"We're here," Adam pointed at the network of chained stars and planes.

"Are you sure? Is that really Eden Garden? I can only see chained planes and planets though."

"Obviously, that's not my Eden Garden Sect's main branch. But there's a sect branch for mortals on the center star."

Miaomiao squinted his eyes to see further ahead. Strangely, this zone was clouded by asteroids, and they looked hazardous with all the colorful gas.

Adam led Miaomiao toward the network. He passed through the flood of asteroids and unknown space gas with ease. As for Miaomiao, he looked around like a country bumpkin.

Then, Miaomiao noticed something shocking.

Small rocks, asteroid fragments, and random minerals in space around the parked planes and planets were all precious soul stones of various grades! As for the gas, they were Soul Qi!

Small rocks were first-grade soul stones that Miaomiao's fans always tipped him. The asteroid fragments were second-grade ones while clean rocks hid several third-grade soul stones.

There were other cultivators everywhere on the parked planes and planets. Yet, nobody bothered picking these fresh first-grade or second-grade soul stones. Only a few miners collected large asteroids to search for higher grade soul stones.

Miaomiao drooled. He gathered all chump changes without caring if he had to drag his feet.

Adam looked back at Miaomiao. He frowned and coughed.

Miaomiao dryly laughed, "Can I collect these precious stones first?"

"Don't behave like a beggar. Those pebbles are everywhere on my planets. Stop collecting useless rocks and follow me."

Gulp

'These soul stones are useless rocks to you? Are you kidding? If God Weed were here, he would have cried a bloody tear of jealousy!'

Miaomiao counted the number of floating soul stones in space with his eyes. After a rough count, he estimated about 500,000 first-grade soul stones.

That was worth 500 second-grade soul stones!

He never forgot the value of these soul stones. One piece of first-grade soul stones contained several strands of Soul Qi, which could be used to accelerate an 8th-stage or a 9th-stage cultivator's progress. One of them could also be exchanged for a million refined spirit stones!

These stones were money!

Yet, Adam and the local people treated it as trash!

WTF People?!

Miaomiao cried as he flew past the endless asteroid fragments. He waved a handkerchief at them, "Goodbye, little coins. I'll come back to clean the space someday."

Adam rolled his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

…

After a long journey, Adam brought Miaomiao to the core planet of the new chained network. It had the same size as Golden Heavenly Goose Planet, which was a hundred times larger than Earth.

The planet's atmosphere and color were similar to Earth, minus the modern technologies.

The architecture of these cities was the same as in ancient China. Bamboo shacks, wooden houses, and wooden buildings were the mainstream here.

Citizens of this planet were all cultivators, but their cultivation base was low. Miaomiao could only detect a few nascent soul realm cultivators after flying over 20 cities.

Adam grinned and pointed at the series of mountain peaks, "Our destination is over there."

"Mountain peaks?"

"Yup. Most cultivators gather there."

"What about the cities?"

"They're for the retired, the talentless, the pacifists, or the non-combatants. I've already deployed my members there to protect the people from random vagrants and outlaws. As for the sect…"

Adam snickered. He decided not to tell Miaomiao for the time being.

"What about the sect?"

"Well, the Mortal Branch is somewhat… competitive. You will understand when you get there."

"…"

…

Adam and Miaomiao reached one of the mountain peaks.

The lowest peak's height was ten kilometers above sea level, but Adam's destination was the tallest peak, which reached the borderline between space and the atmosphere.

However, the gravity of this place was intense. Miaomiao felt like his weight had increased by 50 folds, and his joints were cracking.

When several cultivators on the peak noticed Adam's presence, they kowtowed toward Adam as if they had seen god.

Adam didn't come down to the sect's main building, but he announced to the world. His voice resounded in the world. Everybody, including weak cultivators in the cities, could hear his voice.

"I've brought a child of my brother here. He shall join our sect as an Initiate Candidate! As usual, even children of noble families have to start from the bottom. Guide him well!"

Adam waved his hands and tossed Miaomiao toward the highest peak. Then, the so-called GOD disappeared, leaving Miaomiao there alone.

Miaomiao landed on the tile floor of the sect's main building. He looked around and found the signboard of the sect.

…

…

It seemed like this sect encouraged their disciples to compete against each other. However, there were loopholes in the rules.

They didn't forbid Initiate Disciples and Initiate Candidates from killing each other! Moreover, any killing was allowed in the promotion exams!

This was quite a dangerous sect to join!

It was too late for Miaomiao to retreat. Adam had already left.

While Miaomiao was sweating profusely, one of the elders approached him.

"Junior, may I see your identity token?"
