Villain Cultivator Chapter 401

A massive orange fire erupted from Guan Yunchang's real body. An explosion, a shockwave, and a black mushroom smoke followed.

As if someone had dropped a napalm bomb, half of the arena platform became a sea of flame.

However, dragon fire element essence from Miaomiao continued to flow to Guan Yunchang. The former also repeatedly pressed the switch.

BOOM

Twelve more explosions erupted as the remaining dragon fire essence droplets on Guan Yunchang's body became trackers for homing incendiary bombs, and Miaomiao detonated them as soon as his dragon fire element essence latched onto Guan Yunchang's wound.

The extreme temperature, causing by 13 napalm bombs, made many weak spectators sweat profusely. Everyone below the 6th-stage had to keep their distance from the fire as the hot air started to cook them.

Fogan, the orcs, beastmen, and disciples of Huangjin Monastery was also affected by the heat. Fortunately, many ex-disciples of the Silver Phoenix Sect, aka the yin slaves, erected several layers of ice and water dome barrier to protect their people.

Ju Shoufen, on the other hand, was unfazed by the dragon fire. The Sun Crow's blessing and the recent training sessions made her immune to fire elements. Even under the advanced fire element power of Miaomiao, she felt nothing.

The credit of Ju Shoufen's improvement came from the combat experience against Xie Tian's clone. Because of the previous fights, Ju Shoufen gained enlightenment and developed a new dao of fire.

Aside from the poison fire of the Sun Crow, Ju Shoufen could create a replication of dragon fire. She had also increased her resistance against dragon fire after she had dual-cultivated with Miaomiao in the Isolation Training Space.

Now, she stood tall, taking a bath of hot air and the napalm bomb's shockwaves. Her hair glowed in orange color like the fire before her while her petite body glittered in luster as if the heat invigorated her.

Behind her back, two flame wings of the Sun Crow emerged. Her physical body activated the flame wings by reflex to absorb the stray dragon fire element Qi and Essence.

"Flashy as usual. He's a lot stronger than that clone now," Ju Shoufen nodded in approval as she was proud of Miaomiao.

Behind Ju Shoufen, her son-in-law looked back and forth between Miaomiao on the platform and his mother-in-law. Jia Wenhe didn't understand whom his mother had referred to.

"Who's stronger than who?"

Unlike Ju Shoufen and the yin slaves, Jia Wenhe fell behind in the terms of strength and cultivation progress due to his tight city-management schedules and the affair with the blood bamboo farm. He could only use fire element Qi to filter and resist the heat, yet his face, hair, and back were drenched in sweat.

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just talking about my old memories."

"Okay," Jia Wenhe turned to Guan Yunchang and Miaomiao on the stage. He flew further back to avoid the heat, "Do you think our Miaomiao can square against that guy? He might have a monstrous innate talent, but his opponent is an 8th-stage cultivator with a soul physique."

"Don't worry about it. Miaomiao is hurting him alright. As long as his opponent can bleed, he can be killed."

"… If you say so."

After suffering from 13 consecutive incendiary explosions, Guan Yunchang's soul physique and his armor had been charred black. Yet, his golden eyes still glared at Miaomiao, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

While the real body was recovering from the burn, the mirror body of Guan Yunchang appeared behind Miaomiao. The mirror clone created an avatar of Azure Dragon with his Guandao and swung downward, planning to cleave the target into two.

Miaomiao's tower shield howled and orbited to Miaomiao's back, blocking the strike.

CLANK!

The high-pitched metallic impact was so loud that the spectator's ears hurt.

CRACK!

The tower shield was also cracked from the impact!

However, Miaomiao nonchalantly turned around and touched the tower shield, feeding it with his dragon metal Qi.

The shield was instantly repaired. Furthermore, its surface changed into black amethyst dragon scales, and each scale generated Qi-Sense Jamming Waves toward the mirror clone!

The mirror clone narrowed his eyes and flew backward to avoid the jamming range. He raised his Guandao, sending the avatar of Azure Dragon to the sky. The dragon's spirit rose high and glared at the arena.

At the same time, the real body has recovered from the burnt wounds. Guan Yunchang raised his Guandao, creating ANOTHER Azure Dragon's avatar of his own. Both dragons entwined and merged as one.

RUMBLE

The tribulation clouds and spectating Heavenly Eyes became flustered as they retreated from the battle site. The sky trembled and cracked like a broken glass as the protection array of this mortal world was about to break.

The Twin-Head Azure Dragon emerged after the two dragons became one. They opened their mouths and gathered their Soul Qi, forming two massive energy balls in front of them.

The mirror clone of Guan Yunchang disappeared as it ran out of energy afterward. As for the real body, he gritted his teeth and bellowed.

"This is my best attack! If you can survive the Twin Azure Dragon's Divine Breaths, I'll concede this match!"

Surprisingly, Guan Yunchang didn't drag this match. He decided to use his ultimate move to display his real strength to the world guardians.

Guan Yunchang attempted to appeal to the higher dimension, using this match as a demonstration of his potential and talent, so he could obtain a good sponsor or a dao god's attention. He hoped that one of them would extend their hand to offer him a good title, such as Dao Protector, Dao Guardian, or even better, an apostle.

Anything but a dao god's vessel was fine!

Guan Yunchang poured every strand of soul Qi into their immortal-grade Guandao. He and the weapon roared like a dragon!

Earthquake erupted. The cracks in the sky expanded as the protection array couldn't handle Guan Yunchang's ultimate power.

Beyond the cracks, several massive eyes peeked into the world as if the gods had gazed upon the tiny ants in their enclosure.

"Twin Azure Dragon's Divine Breaths!"

As Guan Yunchang chanted the name of his skill, two blue laser beams descended on Miaomiao!

As the beams came toward Miaomiao at a lightning speed, the latter neither dodged nor attempted to block it.

Instead, he pointed the moon crescent halberd at the incoming beams.

Then, Killer Queen multiplied!

One became two, two became four, four became eight, and so on!

Within a split of a second before the beam reached Miaomiao, 65,535 moon crescent halberds lined up in front of Miaomiao in a square formation while the real one was in Miaomiao's hands.

Miaomiao swung down the real halberd, and every copied weapon moved at the same time!

Death Fortress Sword Style, Army of One!

Stripper Swordsmanship, Stripping Heaven and Earth!

Killing Domain, Line of Death!

Miaomiao used three skills at once. 65,536 weapons slashed through space and tore a hole in the dimension!

And the beams entered the cracked holes instead of hitting Miaomiao!

WHOOM!

The two long beams entered the dark void and vanished. The cracked mended itself and disappeared instantly afterward.

Ling Tianlong, who had been observing Miaomiao from afar, widened his eyes as he recognized all the skills that Miaomiao had used.

As an ex-immortal, he knew about the famous Stripper Swordsmanship of the Jian Clan. He also knew about the Killing Domain since it was the byproduct of the dao of slaughter.

As for the Death Fortress Sword Style, Ling Tianlong was also familiar with it.

After all, he was the one who had invented this style when he was an immortal!

However, there was a major problem. Ling Tianlong remembered that he never taught anyone about this martial art, technique, array, formation, or the essence of this skill in this life or his previous life.

Ling Tianlong was confused, dumbfounded, and shocked. He didn't know how Miaomiao had learned it.

'That's my skill! Just how!? Who the hell is this guy!?'

Not only Ling Tianlong was shocked, but Fang Yanxu and the spectating world guardians were also speechless.

The dimension cutting technique was not something a weak 5th-stage cultivator should be able to use. Yet, this young man had temporarily opened a rift in the space.

Many DaoTubers among the world guardians let out a cheer as if their viewers spiked. The others also mumbled in low noise, communicating with their superiors about what Miaomiao had just done.

Fang Yanxu's hands were trembling. He gulped several times as he thought of the technique that many immortals had searched and experimented so hard to get a glimpse of the supreme technique, which several ancient gods had mastered.

Time and Space Law

'Dimension Distortion… Dimension Severing… Can this brat use the time-and-space technique?'

Fang Yanxu's eyes flared as greed overwhelmed him. At the same time, he bit his lower lips, fearing that he might have made the wrong choice.

Miaomiao sighed, feeling relieved that he had survived for another minute.

While every immortal in the sky thought that Miaomiao might have comprehended the time-and-space law, the guy in question had never touched or practiced any skill, which had been recorded on the time-and-space pieces.

Miaomiao knew - All details on the murals were incomplete, according to what Nero had told him. All pieces contained faulty versions of time-and-space techniques, which could potentially inflict severe backlashes to the users had they practiced them without guidance from an ancient dragon like Nero.

To learn the real technique, one had to collect all seven murals and put the pieces together. Then, the murals would inject the real time-and-space techniques directly into the collector's brain. Afterward, the mural pieces would disappear and reemerge in random realms or planets, where ancient dragons had been hiding.

Therefore, from Nero and Miaomiao's point of view, all skills, related to time-and-space laws, were incomplete. It could be easily countered, interrupted, or even canceled. The only way to replicate the real deal was to let a protagonist with OP plot armor use it.

In this case, Miaomiao was roleplaying as a protagonist. With Lu Fengxian's plot armor, he was confident that he could replicate the real skill with his experience and comprehension.

And it worked like magic.

However, he couldn't escape from the backlash.

Miaomiao coughed several times and spat a mouthful of black blood to the platform. As he had expected, cutting through dimension with his current energy put a strain on his dantian.

In addition, 170 trillion liters of Life Essence was depleted, leaving only five trillion liters at the bottom of his dantian tank.

Still, this volume didn't include Miaomiao's blood cells, which had been storing backup energy.

After Miaomiao had caught his breath, he laughed at Guan Yunchang, "You've lost, Guan Yunchang. I've survived your attack. Now, surrender as you promised!"

Despite having almost an empty tank, Miaomiao smirked and waved his halberd around. All 65,535 weapons in the sky moved in unison as well, generating small shockwaves and sharp wind cutters.

65,535 wind blades went in all directions. Several bystanders from Yuan Shaoqing's side were cut and grazed by the sharp wind.

But Guan Yunchang simply raised his immortal-grade Guandao and parried the incoming wind blades. He snorted and got back into a battle stance, "You may have survived my ultimate move, but I didn't say that I have only one move!"

"Pfft, cliché as fuck. Well, since you refuse to adhere to your promise…"

Guan Yunchang's face turned solemn. He expected a bitter fight.

Betraying Guan Yunchang's expectation, Miaomiao poured out ten million essence cores from one of his spatial rings. All round marbles instantly disintegrated into dust as all Life Essence was poured into Miaomiao's dantian.

Just like that, Miaomiao restored 500 billion liters of Life Essence. However, it was still too little for his massive tank.

Also, Miaomiao made a T sign with his hands.

"Time-Out!"

"W-What?" Fang Yanxu and Guan Yunchang were speechless.

"Don't mind me if I call a time-out to recharge my battery a bit. That skill just cost a lot of MP. I don't have a mana potion like a common RPG game, so I need to eat these essence cores, okay? Just stand there and make a Jojo post or something to entertain the audience. I'll finish this in a few minutes."

While Guan Yunchang and Fang Yanxu were confused, Miaomiao spent more essence cores to refill his energy. He also secretly exchanged his remaining 1st-grade soul stones into more essence cores.

Then, Miaomiao poured 10 million essence cores around him and turned them to dust.

The eyes of all mortals became bloodshot as they were envious of the wealth of Miaomiao. At the same time, they were angry that the latter had spent all of them at once.

These onlooking cultivators could have used them to change their lives! Yet, Miaomiao used them like they were something cheap!

ZAAAA

Another ten million essence cores were poured to the platform, and they instantly evaporated into smoke, which entered Miaomiao's body.

As if the third batch wasn't enough to make the spectators die from the heart bleed, Miaomiao poured the fourth, the fifth, all the way to the 10th batch.

Everyone lost count of how many essence cores Miaomiao had absorbed into his dantian, but they were over 100 million.

Yet, Miaomiao looked dissatisfied.

He only restored five trillion liters of Life Essence. It was far from enough.

"This is a sin for having a big tank. Oh, well…"

Miaomiao clicked his tongue and kicked the ground. While Guan Yunchang let down his guard because of Miaomiao's dubious action, the latter took advantage of the opportunity and got behind him.

The formation of 65,535 moon crescent halberds, aside from Killer Queen, suddenly surrounded Guan Yunchang as well. They hacked at him at the same time as Miaomiao thrust KQ toward Guan Yunchang's nape.

CLINK

Killer Queen failed to puncture through the nape of Guan Yunchang this time as the latter's physique suddenly got harder. However, several drops of dragon fire element essence entered the pores of the red-faced man's skin.

"Bastard!"

Guan Yunchang roared and unleashed his domain power again. He created a shockwave, repelling all weapons around him.

Moreover, the 65,535 copies of Killer Queen transformed into toy tanks with a skull face. They shouted in unison.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

The tanks suddenly got stronger and broke through Guan Yunchang's domain dome barrier. All hand-sized toys latched onto the 8th-stage cultivator.

"If I can't kill you using the basic bomb, I'll just give you a… SHEER HEART ATTACK!"

Miaomiao kicked the ground and dashed away from Guan Yunchang. Behind him, a series of explosions erupted once more.
