Villain Cultivator (Web Novel)

Chapter 367 – The Arachne

The spider girl didn't know how long she had been living in Amethyst Hill.

After she had gained conscience, she came to her senses that she was a finger-sized spider, who had recently been born from a strong being, who was several times bigger than her.

She remembered that her mother used to talk in gibberish words that she couldn't understand. However, she tried to mimic the sound with her spider mouth, but it was impossible for her.

During her early days, the spider followed her instinct, sticking and clinging to the back of her mother as if her life depended on it. Every time her mother kicked her out, she rushed to the nearest amethyst rock and stuffed them into her mouth before she jumped back to her mother's back, receiving her mother's protection.

Whenever her mother caught prey and bound them into a cocoon, she fought against her siblings to claim the ownership of the food reserve.

The little spider lost count of how many times she had lost to her brothers and sisters. Still, a hundred years later, she managed to claim one of the cocoons.

The prey was an elderly man without a cultivation base. Still, it was her first nutritious food source other than eating the hard ores.

The food source awoke something inside her. From a tiny spider, she grew bigger.

While she was eating her food in the cocoon, she heard her mother's voice. She kept talking to the point that the spider girl managed to learn a language.

Her mother talked a lot about demons and her father. But at that time, the little spider had no idea about the vocabulary. Only the words, "Father", "Mother", was in her mind.

By the time that the spider grew as big as an adult human, her siblings had already started a war, killing all weak and small spiders, turning them into their food. One of them also targeted her.

The newly grown spider fought back and killed them all right in front of her mother's watch!

Her mother, the Arachne whose size was comparable to her, was only observed by the sideline throughout the chaos. She simply nodded in approval before she named the spider.

She called her.

Dian Wei

For an unknown reason, Dian Wei, who had just gotten a name, felt the surge of her power in her abdomen. At the same time, extreme hunger overwhelmed her.

Dian Wei didn't remember when her mother had left Amethyst Hill. However, Dian Wei remembered how she ate all of her dead siblings and the remaining prey in the abandoned mine.

Then, one day, when Dian Wei had been exploring the abandoned mine to expand her territory and search for her mother, she encountered a massive hole, leading to the lower underground level.

Curious, Dian Wei climbed down the hole.

She was not disappointed. Deep underground, she found natural metallic crystals, soil-like crystals, and spirit stones of various sizes.

As Dian Wei was still a hungry spider monster at that time, she spent years, holing herself in that area to eat everything she came across.

She never knew how to count days, months, or years. She was happy being alone with plenty of minerals as her primary food source.

Dian Wei didn't realize. As she kept eating, her body evolved.

Her spider head, face, fangs, and mouth changed. Her entire head became human-like. A human torso, abdomen, and two arms also grew.

Dian Wei quickly adapted to the changes even though everything was new. She also felt that her strength grew a lot compared to the time when she was a baby spider.

Moreover, her memory got clearer. She managed to comprehend and learn what her mother had been telling her in the past – She learned about her race, her nest, her location, potential threats, and her father's name.

Despite getting many types of new power and knowledge, Dian Wei always thought of herself as a small and weak spider as she always compared herself with her mother. She didn't even know what cultivation was.

Until the day that strong human cultivators invaded her nest, that day when she dragged her injured body deeper into the underground mine to escape from the threatening hunters, she had a fortuitous encounter, which changed her lifestyle forever.

...

Currently, Dian Wei's human part was a naked beauty with dark glossy black her like the black amethyst. Yet, metal dragon scales covered her forearms, her back, and her belly as her metal dragon bloodline influenced her physique.

The two human eyes and six spider eyes on the forehead were pitched black like her long straight hair. Meanwhile, her human skin was as pale as a paper sheet. Even her areolae's color was light cream.

As a single virgin mother who could spawn 1,000 unevolvable spiderlings each day, her two bountiful breasts sometimes produced transparent fluid. They never sagged even though she had lived for over 1,000 years.

Had someone measured them, they might be between 100 and 105cm in size.

The arachne's presence was nonexistent even though her cultivation base had already hit the ceiling of this mortal world. Yet, she didn't use her power to crush Miaomiao and Zhu Qiao right away.

After all, Dian Wei had learned many lessons from her benefactor, who had been sleeping soundly at the deepest underground floor. Demons like Miaomiao and Zhu Qiao were not her mortal enemies.

Her real enemies were the detestable humans, who attempted to capture her that day. She still remembered his face and his name.

Still, Dian Wei was confused about whether she attacked them by mistake. As she always abducted nearby cultivators who came across her territory, she never paid attention if they were demons in disguise.

Finding an incubus, who were the same race as her father, was rare. She was interested in the power of Miaomiao and Zhu Qiao.

'How long has it been since I last saw a succubus and an incubus? I've seen dead ones, but these two are alive. Should I test them? Should I recapture them? Should I talk to them? Can they make my children stronger? What should I do?'

Like a child who had never interacted with others but her parent, Dian Wei kept following Miaomiao since he was the slowest among the duo.

As for Zhu Qiao, the mass of gas had already left the underground cave, but she lingered in front of the mine entrance.

'Eh? One of them is already there? That girl is too quick! Don't go. Come back here first!'

Dian Wei focused her mind and activated her simple domain power. As soon as Zhu Qiao was inside her territory, she teleported a strand of soul Qi into the succubi's brain.

It only took a second to knock the girl unconscious again. Zhu Qiao instantly fainted and fell into the dream world, thinking that she was still awake all the time.

This was the skill that Dian Wei had used on Miaomiao and Zhu Qiao when they passed her territory. None of them had realized that they were attacked. Even their dream was the continuation of their real-life journey.

Sensing that the succubus had fainted, Dian Wei ordered her spiderlings, which had been created from her unfertilized eggs, to fetch the girl back to her nest.

Millions of finger-sized spiders moved in a herd. They crept out of small holes and cavities in the mine and rushed to Dian Wei's target.

Among the millions of black spiders, one of them was bigger than the rest. It weaved spider webs from its butt, wrapping Zhu Qiao into a cocoon. Then, the little spiderlings carried her back into the nest.

While monitoring her children's activities with her Qi sense, Dian Wei nodded in satisfaction.

'Easy! Now, what is that incubus doing?'

Dian Wei continued to stalk Miaomiao. At the same time, she manipulated her spider webs and her children to corner him to a dead-end.

'Hehehehe! He's the same race as my father, so he should be able to make my children stronger! Will I get to test what master taught me? What was it again? Re-Pro-Duction?'

Dian Wei looked at her crotch area and tilted her head, confused.

'How did mother do it? I don't get it. Spill his blood inside my belly? Crush him into mincemeat and mix them with the unborn eggs? Master always refused to show me how to fertilize my eggs. What do I have to do?'

...

The amethyst mine was like a maze. Miaomiao lost count of how many intersections within the mine as he had been navigating his way to find an exit.

He kept moving forward by sticking his hand on the left wall, hoping to eventually find the correct way.

Unfortunately, the amethyst mine produced strange jamming waves that interrupted his Qi circulation and Qi sense. Whenever Miaomiao's touched the walls, his stealth skill and Qi circulation were interrupted, causing his transparent body to become partially visible.

"Haiz."

After moving through the maze for 10 minutes, Miaomiao decided to cancel his skill.

'Even if I'm invisible, those godlike monsters will definitely notice my presence anyway. I'll only hide when weak monsters are nearby.'

<Sun Wu suggests you should stop touching the wall but maintain the invisible skill.>

'Okay. If the strategist said so.'

Â

Miaomiao stopped touching things randomly. He maintained his stealth ability while he slipped through the series of spider webs and abandoned crates of strange ores.

Little did he know his response to Sun Wu would trigger something irreversible. Many dao gods got inspired by Sun Wu's actions.

<OG-Buddha suggests you should start collecting Qi Jamming Amethyst ores.>

<Kunwu suggests you should keep the ores to make heaven-grade Qi Sealing weapons or artifacts.>

<Tilted Hongjun suggests you should collect the spider webs to make useful artifacts in the future.>

<The Sun Crow is laughing at other spectating dao gods.>

<The Sun Crow suggests you not to touch everything if you value your life.>

His live steam viewers started to get nosy and noisy. It was like they were playing a game, using Miaomiao as their game character.

'You guys are noisy.'

<Anonymous Devil is online.>

<Macho Joshua is online.>

<Anonymous Devil laughs at Macho Joshua's incompetency and weaknesses.>

<Macho Joshua grumbles in frustration.>

The steam chat was already busy because of Miaomiao's favorite donors. Now, the obnoxious devil had returned to mess with his life again.

<Anonymous Devil is wondering what he missed when he was away.>

<Anonymous Devil is confused why you are hanging around with a 9th-stage Arachne.>

'What Arachne?'

Miaomiao turned 180 degrees, looking behind him and unsheathing Killer Queen.

But Miaomiao found nobody.

'Are you kidding me? Devil, what the fuck? Was that a prank?'

<Anonymous Devil is offended that you are doubting him.>

<Anonymous Devil is looking forward to a bloody guro game over scene.>

<The Sun Crow shakes his head at Anonymous Devil's ignorance.>

<The Sun Crow is expecting bestiality porn.>

<OG-Buddha is looking away.>

<Macho Joshua is looking away.>

The interaction between these manipulative gods was annoying whenever Miaomiao forgot to disable the system messages.

But this time, their interaction hinted at something silly and weird.

'What bestiality porn? I'm not going to fuck an animal!'

<All spectators burst into laughter.>

<You have received a total of 100,000 essence cores from their donation.>

<Many spectators are willing to tip you a soul stone if you can brainwash the arachne in front of you.>

<Anonymous Devil and others are betting if you will make the arachne your next wife.>

'Dafuq is wrong with ya'll!? Where is that arachne you're talking about!?'

Confused and disturbed, Miaomiao kept looking left and right, trying to find the arachne that these busybodies had mentioned. Also, his manhood rose as it was excited about this odd encounter.

<DaoPorn, the Greatest Collection of Immortal Porns, would like to sponsor your channel.>

<DaoPorn, the Greatest Collection of Immortal Porns, would like to purchase your past live steam clips when you had sex with your wives or other hidden lovers.>

<The detail has been sent to Macho Joshua. When Macho Joshua approves, you will start receiving incentive income through your system inventory.>

"..."

So many things distracted Miaomiao. Now, a sponsor offer finally arrived while his life was in a mess.

Miaomiao didn't know if he should be happy or angry at these unknown gods. They contributed a lot for the sake of his growth and wealth, but they wanted to ruin his life.

Now, of all things, a porn contract...

"Ah, I have a headache," Miaomiao massaged his temples and forehead, giving up thinking about the system messages, offer, or the unknown arachne that these gods had warned him.

After all, his right eyebrow no longer twitched. Therefore, his life wasn't in danger.

"Hello?"

Still, it wouldn't hurt to probe the situation or trying to talk to the unknown existence. Maybe, he might be able to talk his way out.

"HelloOoOoOo."

Miaomiao dragged his voice as manipulating the echo in an underground cave was fun.

For a moment there, he forgot that an unknown 9th-stage monster was inside the underground cave. His brain cells temporarily stopped functioning due to his playful mentality.

"Hi."

Unexpectedly, a girly voice replied. It sounded like a voice of a 6th-grade school girl.

Miaomiao beamed with a bright smile as he found the voice cute. However, his expression changed when he remembered that this cave hid a dangerous existence, including the potential metal dragon or whatever dragon.

"Erm, I've come in peace. How do I leave this place? Can you not kill me, please?"

Throwing away his pride, Miaomiao rubbed his hands and sheathed Killer Queen, showing no sign of hostility or resistance. He also made the Star Trek's hand sign.

The girly voice echoed, "I know. It was my mistake to bring you here since we're supposed to be allies. Say, can I ask you a question?"

The talker hadn't revealed herself. Still, she revealed that she was the one responsible for the abduction.

Miaomiao started sweating after he had received the confirmation - The mysterious girl was the 9th-stage monster that Dion had warned him about.

"Yes. You can ask anything. But please promise me that you'll let me leave, and you won't kill me."

"Hahaha. Why should I kill you when I have other uses for you?"

"O-Okay. What kind of service do you want me to do, then?"

"Before that, can you answer my question first?"

Miaomiao gulped, readying his mind and body. His hand held onto the 100 talismans, preparing to tore everything and let loose had he needed to fight for survival.

"Sure. Ask away!"

The girl shyly coughed several times. Then, she shocked him with the question.

"Do you know how I can fertilize my spider eggs?"

Miaomiao's eyes became round as he couldn't believe his ears. He picked his right ear and right ear, thinking that he had misheard.

"... Pardon?"

"How do I fertilize my eggs?"
