Villain Cultivator

Chapter 588 – How to Protagonist 101 (1)

Day 171

As Miaomiao needed time, he complied with the order and showed up at the public arena in the city.

The local cultivators were excited and followed Miaomiao to the arena. They prayed and bet that Miaomiao would easily win. After all, had more people died by Miaomiao's hands, he would have gotten more centipedes to sell!

"Let's go, boss!"

"Kill the Mu Clan's bastards for us!"

"Kick their ass and sell us your centipedes again!"

"You can do it! Kick their blue balls!"

His fans also chanted and hit a drum in rhythms.

"CEN.TI.PEDES! *BOOM* CEN.TI.PEDES! *BOOM*"

Miaomiao felt like he was in a WWE stadium. The crowd was a riot.

When Miaomiao arrived, the Mu Clan's deacon had already been waiting for him. Several people from the Mu Clan were also there, glaring at Miaomiao with hatred.

Over 20,000 cultivators levitated in the sky, watching the show from a distance. 5,000 local rogue cultivators and sect candidates gathered to have fun and gamble.

Surprisingly, among the observers, more than half of them rode Miaomiao's centipedes, and these monsters grew even bigger than when they were sold.

The deacon glared at Miaomiao and the centipedes in the sky. He clicked his tongue, "All those centipedes were supposed to be ours…"

Miaomiao heard the comment. He snickered, "Of course. I created them, so they must be yours. What a logic."

"You know nothing. The Mu Clan owns everything on this planet!"

"Wow. You're right. I underestimated you. Lord Adam created this planet for everybody, but you're the owner. How magical! I wonder what else in the universe that you haven't seen belongs to your clan."

"…"

The deacon was livid. He stomped one of his feet and activated his soul domain.

Six flame tornados shot up from the ground and surrounded the arena stage. They circled around the platform, trapping the deacon and Miaomiao inside.

The deacon looked around and announced, "Gentlemen, we shall now test the initiate number 1212's capabilities and strength. Mao Miaomiao shall fight 10 battles consecutively. If he wins, he gets to maintain his initiate status. However, if he loses, he will be expelled from the sect!"

The crowd sneered at the deacon. The condition was one-sided, and they didn't agree to this treatment.

The deacon sensed the mood of the spectators. He laughed at them, "However, we shall not test him without any incentive."

Clansmen of the Mu Clan tossed several boxes to the stage. The deacon wiggled his fingers and opened the boxes with his Qi.

"Any initiate, candidate, or rogue cultivator that manages to defeat Mao Miaomiao shall be promoted as an initiate of the 12th Initiate Peak. Also, the Mu Clan shall bestow these treasures to the winner as rewards!"

Many Miaomiao's fans booed while the haters cheered. Among the spectators, old immortals greedily gazed at the treasure boxes.

Ten boxes contained spatial rings, heaven-grade artifacts, armors, clothes, rare herbs, and pills. Everybody estimated that everything was worth about 500 to 600 sixth-grade soul stones.

Any 9th-stage cultivator could use these soul stones to ascend. Elders from various families estimated that they could raise a dozen immortals with these items.

The fans of Miaomiao hesitated. They, too, wanted the treasures.

Seeing that their bribery worked, the deacon added more fuel to the flame, "We also receive words from Grand Elder Mu. In the case that a promising youngster can prove their worth in this event, the grand elder shall consider accepting the person as his legacy disciple!"

Murmur

Now, the crowd was interested in the rewards. Even several mortals wanted to participate.

The deacon sneered at Miaomiao, "There's also an additional rule. Since weapons have no eyes, the sect shall not pursue the matter if someone dies during the match."

Miaomiao scoffed, "Pfft. Your objective is too obvious. Can't you be more secretive?"

"You killed one of our elders. This is what you get for offending us."

"Right. Oh, since this is MY TEST, can I suggest an additional rule?"

"You have no power whatsoever. The rules remain as it is."

"Ha! If your clansmen want to be known as cowards, then fine," Miaomiao turned toward the crowd and cupped his fists, speaking in a clear voice. "To easily trick a person, one must first make their target mad with greed. Once tempted, even the most powerful cultivator can be vulnerable to the next schemes. Brothers, you are being seduced by the devils of the Mu Clan!"

The crowd paused. They stopped to think of what Miaomiao had said.

"I'm a lucky man. I'm so lucky that I had an opportunity to exchange a conversation with Macho Joshua and OG-Buddha. They taught me one common lesson – Greed is a sin, and greedy men always die because of their greed."

Murmur

Many cultivators had heard about the two deities before. They were surprised that Miaomiao had once received guidance from these powerful experts.

Many old elders nodded in acknowledgment as they found Miaomiao's words and logic plausible. Greed was a highway to hell, and the Mu Clan's ulterior motive was as clear as days.

This evil clan was trying to use the bystanders as a sacrificial pawn in their feud!

Several elders saluted toward Miaomiao. Then, they commanded their people to back away from the stage. Many of them praised Miaomiao for giving them a warning.

Still, the majority of elders were still tempted. Although the Mu Clan's goal was unjust, they had no problem with killing a few innocents to get ahead. They sneered at Miaomiao, mocking his words.

One of them laughed, "Junior, if you're that sincere, why don't you kowtow to us and beg us not to get involved."

As soon as one of the haters started, the others followed suit, "A cornered rat does anything to survive. Obviously, he's desperate, but he pretends to be wise. Your fate is sealed, Mao Miaomiao. Stop resisting and accept your death!"

"Lies. Had you really known Joshua or Buddha, you would have become their vessels long ago. You wouldn't have had come here to seek refuge like the others!"

The sound of mockeries and jeers got louder. Many cultivators rebuked Miaomiao at the same time, and he could no longer differentiate their voices anymore.

Miaomiao sighed. The local villains' IQ degraded so much that their intelligence was inferior to a 6-year-old child, and he was tired of them.

Since words were ineffective, Miaomiao demonstrated his power to weed out minor characters

BOOM

Miaomiao temporarily activated the time domain, unholy karma domain, and darkness domain at the same time. He froze everybody in the city and in the sky for two seconds and injected everyone with a centipede egg. Then, he canceled the power of time and darkness.

"Just now, I could have killed everybody here once. None of you are my match. If you value your life, stay there and behave. Let the Mu Clan's people jump down to fight me. If you get involved, I will not spare you."

"…"

Haters closed their mouths and gulped. They sensed that Miaomiao had injected something into their neck, but no one could discover the eggs of karma centipedes.

Unfortunately, the deacon didn't give up.

"You're just being pretentious! How could a mortal kill ten thousand immortals within two breaths! Also, that power just now must have consumed a lot of your Qi. I have to admit that it was fascinating, but that petty trick can't fool me!"

The haters widened their eyes. They let out a sigh as they believed in the deacon.

"That's right. He can't possibly be that powerful. Just now, he must have used up all of his energy!"

"I was almost fooled! Hahaha! Mao Miaomiao, the next time you lie, make sure it's something believable! Oh, wait, you might not have that chance since you will definitely die today!"

The last commenter swooped down and stood on the stage. He cupped his fist and saluted the deacon.

"I am Qiu Jixing from the Qiu Clan! I shall end that pretender's sorry life for you and claim the initiate's position!"

Qiu Jixing had the demeanor of a young master of a rich clan. His neat and seamless clothes, golden crown, golden bracers, and golden chin guards revealed his status. Moreover, he had several heaven-grade treasures floating behind him.

The deacon laughed as he collected the treasure boxes on the stage, "Good. I shall clean up the stage and let you fight to your heart's content. Good luck."

"Thank you for this opportunity! I shall prove it to the Mu Clan that the Qiu Clan is forever your friend!"

"Hahaha. Our Mu Clan will not forget this favor. Now, go. Show us your supreme skills and teach Mao Miaomiao a lesson!"

"Will do!"

Mao Miaomiao rolled his eyes. The exchanges of these villains made his ears bleed, and his hands inwardly curled from the cringe.

He grumbled, "I'm gonna puke. Are you done?"

Qiu Jixing sneered. He unsheathed his long sword and unleashed his Qi, revealing his cultivation base and his secret powers.

Surprisingly, five Dao Sentinels emerged from his shadows. Moreover, his cultivation base was at the 10th-stage like Miaomiao.

"Do you sense my Qi? This is a unique cultivation method that combines my ancestor's spirits with my Dao Avatars! My father, my grandfather, and my ancestors are with me, and they can fight alongside me as my Dao Avatars!"

Murmur

Many bystanders were shocked by the appearance of Dao Sentinels. Although not all of them knew about this cultivation method, many knowledgeable elders gazed at Qiu Jixing in astonishment.

"The legendary Dao Sentinel Method! To think that the Qiu Clan has nurtured a cultivator of this path!"

"The Qiu Clan must have sacrificed their ancestors to be this child's Dao Sentinels. Qiu Jixing should be the top genius of their clan."

"Having five Dao Sentinels is like having five immortal guardians as bodyguards! Since Qiu Jixing can summon five Dao Sentinels, this fight will definitely be one-sided!"

"It's practically six-on-one. The match has already ended before it starts!"

Again, Miaomiao was fed up. He bellowed, "Will you idiots shut your mouth?! Why are you fool always talkative when a third-rated villain shows off his puny power?!"

Miaomiao hated this cliché. He cut their dialogues short as he didn't want to keep listening to their nonsense.

He would rather skip the introductory of a villain and hype phase of the story to the face-slapping scene.

But still, Miaomiao was curious how Qiu Jixing's cultivation method differed from his.

He smirked and pretended to be ignorant, "A 10th-stage? Dao Sentinels? How is that different from the other methods?"

Qiu Jixing smirked while the haters sneered. A Qiu Clan's servant laughed and bragged, "A commoner path is linear. It progresses from the Muscle Tempering to Bone Refining, Meridian Opening, Qi Condensing, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and then Nascent Soul. From that point on, the quality of the cultivation method differs!"

The other clansman also added, "Our young master's foundation is unparalleled! Instead of progressing from the golden core to the nascent soul stage, he condensed the true spirit of himself and a dantian planet! From the True Spirit Realm, he progresses to the True Nascent Soul Realm, and then Soul Foundation Realm. Now, at the 10th-stage, our young master has reached the Pseudo Immortal Realm! With another push, he will become a True Immortal!"

The crowd was astonished. They looked around and discussed this unique cultivation method, hoping to acquire more information about it.

But Miaomiao was amused. He found this cultivation method cute.

"So, since when have you gathered your Dao Sentinels? The 10th-stage?"

Qiu Jixing scoffed, "Since you're about to die, I'll share a few secrets so that you can have something to brag about in hell! Indeed, I began condensing my Dao Avatar into Dao Sentinels recently. Now that I have all five required Dao Sentinels, I can attack the True Immortal Realm! Once I become a True Immortal, I will be unrivaled among my peers! And you, Mao Miaomiao, shall receive the honor of being my stepping stone!"

Miaomiao slow-clapped.

"Much brag, such flex, 10/10, wow."

"…"

Qiu Jixing narrowed his eyes. Although he found Miaomiao's action idiotic, he felt like Miaomiao was looked down upon.

"Enough talk. I'll end this fight within ten breaths!" Qiu Jixing pointed his fingers at Miaomiao and bellowed, "Ancestors, please destroy my enemy!"

Five souls of old men charged at Miaomiao. None of them bothered using their domain power, but they emitted the aura of Immortal Saints.

The power of an immortal saint was equal to a 10-Star Constellation Cultivator!

However, Miaomiao lazily let out a sigh. He was disappointed.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The five immortal souls punched Miaomiao, but their fists couldn't get through a strange layer of domain around him.

They felt like they had hit a hard steel plate with their bare fists!

"… face-slapping scene coming right up. By the way, I forgot my breakfast, Munya."

The five souls widened their eyes as they sensed something amiss. Their instinct told them to escape from here now!

Suddenly, ten long octopus tentacles emerged from Miaomiao's shadow. They shot up at a light speed and pierced their bellies and heads!

Then, the sticky tentacles pulled the souls into Miaomiao's shadow!

A muffled cry came from the shadow. A second later, their presence was gone.

Miaomiao ignored the commotion and strode toward Qiu Jixing, who widened his eyes in disbelief. Before the latter could react, he waved his hand.

PA

As Miaomiao had promised, he slapped Qiu Jixing to the face.

However, the slap was so hard that Qiu Jixing's jaws were dislocated and were separated from his face!

"So much for the hype.. My screen time is even shorter than Paimon these days."
