Villain Cultivator

Chapter 589 – How to Protagonist 101 (2)

Qiu Jixing didn't understand what had happened. His connections with the five Dao Sentinels were lost, and his cultivation base regressed by a major realm.

He attempted to gather his Qi to counterattack, but his Soul Qi didn't follow his command. For an unknown reason, his meridians were clogged as if something had blocked them.

This was the downside of having a mortal physique. The Soul Physique cultivators in the Golden Heavenly Goose Planet would have been fine as their entire body was a mass of Soul Qi, but Qiu Jixing didn't have the luxury.

Miaomiao brandished Killer Queen and destroyed the Qi-less heaven-grade weapons behind Qiu Jixing one after another. The katana spirit giggled as she devoured more souls and Soul Qi to get stronger.

"Will you continue fighting, young master Qiu? If you're willing to give up, I will dispel the curse that I've cast on you. But if you still believe that your inflated ego is enough to defeat me, we shall continue fighting."

Despite being heavy-handed, Miaomiao had no intention of killing this young master and provoking his backers. After all, killing the young would always offend the old.

Qiu Jixing glared at Miaomiao. Although he didn't have his lower jaw and he could not talk, he manipulated his vocal cord with his Qi to speak.

"I'm a genius of my generation! I can't lose to you!"

BOOM

As soon as Qiu Jixing finished speaking, he punched Miaomiao to the face.

Unfortunately for him, his fist was crushed as Miaomiao's passive Daos reflected the attack back to the attacker.

Miaomiao shook his head in disappointment, "I gave you a chance, but you ruined it. Oh well, I already offended the Mu Clan, so adding another clan to the list won't hurt."

He lightly poked Qiu Jixing's forehead with his finger, activating his time power and accelerating the growth of the karma centipedes.

A million baby centipedes bursted out of Qiu Jixing's head, stomach, arms, and legs. They ate his flesh, Qi, and blood to construct their physical bodies.

Just like that, a genius of the Qiu family perished.

As soon as the battle was decided, the crowd erupted. Miaomiao's fans celebrated that their favorite shop just got more pets to sell.

"I knew it! Boss Mao is the GOAT!"

"More centipedes! CEN.TI.PEDES!"

"LET'S CHANT, BROTHERS! CEN.TI.PEDES!"

"CEN.TI.PEDES! CEN.TI.PEDES!"

Meanwhile, the expressions of the haters, the Mu Clan's elders, and the Qiu Clan's elders turned ugly.

The death of Qiu Jixing and the five spirits of their ancestors might cripple their family's foundation for millennia! Nobody knew if they could recover from the losses of several immortals any time soon.

"J-Jixing…"

One of the elders collapsed on his knees. His hands and lips trembled in shock.

"B-B-Bastard Mao Miaomiao! I swear by the name of Qiu Xu! If I can't kill you today, I won't call myself the god of the Qiu Clan!"

Surprisingly, the patriarch of the Qiu Clan, Qiu Xu, was a deity. His Dao Providence erupted as he gathered the faith of his followers, vessels, and family members. Then, he charged at Miaomiao.

The Mu Clan's deacon didn't bother stopping Qiu Xu. He allowed the patriarch to descend to the stage, and he made an announcement.

"The first fighter has perished, so Mao Miaomiao won the first bout. The second fighter shall be Qiu Xu!"

It was obviously cheating as no mortal could compete against a deity. The deacon rigged the fight to kill Miaomiao.

However, Miaomiao's expression looked indifference. He gazed at the charging old man and condensed a fist-sized ball from his shadow. Then, he threw it at Qiu Xu, "Meowmeow, I choose you!"

'I'm not Pikachu, Munya!'

The ball retorted and transformed into a humongous head of an orange cat.

Meowmeow opened his mouth and bit Qiu Xu, catching him in between his sharp fangs.

Unfortunately, the fangs failed to penetrate Qiu Xu's skin and defensive treasures. The deity bellowed, "Foolish beast! I'm a god. I'm invincible. Your petty trick is useless against me!"

Qiu Xu directed his providence domain and attack Meowmeow from the inside.

"I wonder about that, Munya!"

Meowmeow happily sang as he sensed that Miaomiao used his teeth as a medium to transfer the accursed centipede eggs into the deity's body.

As a Soul Sentinel, Meowmeow could also use Miaomiao's power. The cat copied the power of time and accelerate the centipede's growth rate inside the deity. However, Meowmeow also attempted to kill Qiu Xu with his own power.

"I don't eat junk food, so I'll spit you, Munya! Kkarrrrrggggg!"

As if Meowmeow wanted to vomit a ball of fur from his stomach, it gargled and coughed. Then, a jet stream of yellowish liquid splashed onto the face of the trapped deity.

The digestive fluid of the cathulhu instantly melted the deity's upper body, head, and arms!

Miaomiao then spat the deity to the stage, and he receded back to Miaomiao's shadow to recharge his power.

Miaomiao quickly rushed toward the lower half of Qiu Xu's body. He transferred all karma centipedes and eggs inside him to Qiu Xu's belly.

A second later, Qiu Xu reconstructed his body and recovered from his injuries. He glared at Miaomiao.

"Nice try. I don't know what you did, but it's futile! You can't possibly defeat a god!"

Qiu Xu bellowed and his Dao Providence and Providence Element erupted. The sudden surge of power broke Miaomiao's nine layers of Daos and threatened to instantly shatter Miaomiao's soul and the planes in his dantian space.

Even with the superior foundation and physique, Miaomiao's raw strength was still inferior to a real deity. He was pressed to the floor.

Killer Queen immediately sank into Miaomiao's shadow to escape from the suppression force. Her blade body was cracked, and she was in need of repair!

Qiu Xu leaped and stomped Miaomiao's back. He crushed the latter's spine with one strike.

"I won't kill you easily. I'll make you wish you'd never been born!"

"Really?"

Miaomiao scoffed and pressed the wristwatch's button with his Qi.

TIME STOP!

With just a click, everything turned into a greyscale world. Nothing but Miaomiao could sense the flow of time.

By sacrificing a few hundred years of lifespan, Miaomiao stopped time without using his Qi. Nya-Nya's passive Dao instantly healed Miaomiao back to health and enabled him to move.

Miaomiao stood up. He clicked his tongue in frustration as he grabbed Qiu Xu's neck.

'Without karma severing cheat, I can't defeat a god without exposing my Soul Sentinels. I don't want to summon Xu Chu and attract these horny bastards' attention. If I summon other girls, more virgin young masters will show up and woo them. Then, I might get more enemies because of my protaognist's luck. I can only summon Nya-Nya and Meowmeow right now.'

As Miaomiao couldn't rely on the girls, he activated the power of plot armor plundering and robbed Xu Qiu's luck and providence Qi.

Currently, the power of providence Qi could only be shared with Xu Chu and Meowmeow or used as food for the karma centipedes. Miaomiao couldn't directly digest them since it put a heavy burden on his dantian.

Unfortunately, Miaomiao ran out of karma centipedes. He needed to violate the Heavenly Dao Law to get punished by negative karma again.

As a result, Miaomiao directed the absorbed Qi to the souls of Xu Chu and Meowmeow.

'Annoying. Well, I'll deplete his luck and absorb his lifespan. By the way, Meowmeow. Can I use your Dao to directly steal someone's lifespan?'

Unfortunately yet again, the stopwatch stopped Miaomiao's movements as well. He couldn't communicate with Meowmeow.

'Annoying. I'm on my own, I see.'

Without a choice, Miaomiao patiently absorbed Qiu Xu's luck and Qi while he watched the number of his lifespan decrease every second.

He didn't count how long he had maintained the stopwatch's power, but he lost a total of 100,000 years of lifespans when Qiu Xu's luck ran out.

Since Qiu Xu's luck was depleted, Miaomiao ceased his technique. He kept a distance from Qiu Xu and pressed the resume button on his stopwatch.

CLICK

The time resumed. Everyone could move again.

As soon as everybody could move, the crowd widened their eyes as they couldn't follow Miaomiao's movements.

"Wow. Boss Mao can even teleport under the pressure of a deity?"

"So GOAT! Amazing!"

"That's Boss Mao for you!"

The fans were impressed while the haters were shocked. They looked at Miaomiao as if they were seeing a ghost.

Meanwhile, Qiu Xu furrowed his brows. He sensed that his power had been decreased by half, and his luck was reduced to zero.

His face turned white. He suddenly had a dreadful feeling as his instinct warned him about his bad luck.

Something terrible would occur to him soon!

Qiu Xu shamelessly looked at the Mu Clan's deacon and bellowed in frustration, "I quit! I give up!"

"Wha-What?!"

"I said I give up! I'm leaving!"

Qiu Xu grudgingly kicked the ground and tried to fly away.

Suddenly, the connection between him and his vessels was lost!

BOOM! BOOM!

Among the crowd of spectators, over a thousand of them were exploded and a billion centipedes came to life. Many tiny monsters screeched and celebrated their evolution.

Among the newborns, five humongous centipede queens shot up to the sky. They carried newborn centipedes toward the garbage pit right away.

Qiu Xu shivered in fear. He recognized the centipedes, and he recalled that Miaomiao could turn people into those monsters.

"MAO MIAOMIAO!!"

Qiu Xu screamed in fright and anger before his body was exploded as well.

Instead of releasing countless tiny centipedes, an army of adult centipedes, a dozen centipede queens, and a dragon-like centipede emerged.

The new dragon centipede came out with the cultivation base of a pseudo deity! Its negative karma aura shrouded everything around its body in grey as if its aura could decay everything it touched.

Miaomiao also dropped his jaw. This was the first time he managed to kill a deity with his centipedes, but the presence of the dragon centipede surprised him.

Ding

Miaomiao narrowed his eyes. He remembered that consuming any Heavenly Merit Orb would bind his soul with the Heavenly Dao.

He didn't like the offer.

'Will my soul be bound with Heavenly Dao if I exchange it for a planet?'

'Are you sure?'

The offer was too good to be true.

Still, the dragon centipede was a pseudo god. Giving it away was a bit troubling.

But after careful consideration, Miaomiao believed that his foundation was a bit shaky at his current stage since he rushed from the 9th-stage to the peak of the tenth stage. Moreover, he was about to advance to the 11th-stage soon, but his dantian size was still the same as when he was at the early 10th-stage.

He needed some boosters.

'Okay, I'll contribute that dragon. I'll keep the queens, though.'

'You sound like you're working for Heavenly Dao.'

"…"

'Now you make me feel bad, Dion.'

…

Sage Realm

On the fluffy cloud in a bright void, an elderly man in shining white robes squinted his brows. He looked up to face his creator.

"Lord Pangu, this is not funny."

A deep voice of the Heavenly Dao's owner resounded, "I'm serious."

"Are you sure you don't want to bind that variable with the Heavenly Dao?"

"Because he is not a part of Heavenly Dao, the game is fair. The local population needs someone to protect them. You, sages, have been bullying the mortals for too long."

"… I was not one of the bullies."

"You are the same as them, Hongjun. You ignored their pleas, so that makes you worse than them."

"…"
