Villain Cultivator

Chapter 491 '“ 3rd-Rated Villains = Cat Food

"State your name and affiliation!"

Although the 8th-stage cultivators wanted to apprehend Miaomiao and Meowmeow, they weren't stupid enough to assault them right away. As all of them couldn't sense the cat's cultivation base, they believed that it was a mystic pet or an immortal pet from the higher realm.

Still, Miaomiao's low cultivation base was suspicious. A 6th-stage cultivator couldn't possibly tame or command this mystic being unless he had a backer. Therefore, these guards concluded that he might come from a renowned family or organization.

Seeing that these guards were smarter than he thought, Miaomiao revealed his identity while he patted the cat's head, telling him not to harm these people yet.

"Mao Miaomiao, the patriarch of the Mao Clan!"

"Cat Meowmeow'¦ from a cat clan?"

The guards frowned as they looked back and forth between him and the cat. Some of them giggled as they found the names funny.

Since Miaomiao came from a no-name clan, the captain believed that he could take advantage of Miaomiao. He sneered, "How fitting. Even the names are related to cats. I wonder if your clanswomen are cats, too."

The corner of Miaomiao's mouth curved up. He cracked his knuckles and rotated his shoulders, warming up.

"Is that the manner of a lowly slave of the prestigious Holy Land Continent? Insulting a VIP guest and wasting his time? Don't you realize that your crime is so severe that you can get your entire family killed?"

"Oh, I'm so scary," The guard leader burst into laughter. "I bet you're an upstarted brat from a rich clan somewhere. Do you think you can flaunt your pet and expect us to follow your order? Guess what? We also have several immortal beasts here! You think you're a hotshot with that stupid cat?!"

"Hoh?" Miaomiao took it back. These people were morons, "Then, what do you want? I told you my affiliation. Can I pass now?"

"No! You're under arrest for intruding on our continent! Your spatial rings, treasures, and clothes will be confiscated for a thorough check! Rocky, come down and teach this brat a lesson! I don't mind if you eat that stupid cat-octopus!"

KREEEEE

As soon as the guard leader shouted, a massive brown hawk leaped from the nearby floating fortress and glided in the sky. It glared at Meowmeow as if it had found its prey.

Vice versa, Meowmeow also had a similar idea. This cat's behavior was the same as domesticated cats.

Cats loved birds.

"It's a flying chicken, Munya!"

Miaomiao jumped off from the cat's head and allowed Meowmeow to move freely.

The cat wiggled his tentacle tails and butt as if he was getting ready to pounce the giant hawk.

The hawk was offended by Meowmeow's behavior. It cried and revealed the aura of a Mystic Beast, aka an Immortal Beast.

Each Immortal Beast's cultivation method was different than humans and dragons.

For example, some transformed their physique into an ethereal being by cultivating one advanced element as their Dao and evolving into elemental spirits. Some naturally evolved by using their racial advantage to grow stronger. Some absorbed Qi and natural energy to mutate their genes. Some relied on their natural instinct and came up with their cultivation method. Some cultivated their bloodline and combined it with their Dao to become an immortal, and some were domesticated and manipulated by humans.

Although the methods were different, their cultivation ranks were commonly categorized into nine levels. Every three realms were divided into a major realm.

= First Major Realm =

1st rank '“ Third Class Mystical Beast

2nd rank '“ Second Class Mystical Beast

3rd-rank '“ First Class Mystical Beast

= Second Major Realm =

4th-rank '“ Earth Sacred Beast

5th-rank '“ Heaven Sacred Beast

6th-rank '“ Star Sacred Beast

= Third Major Realm =

7th-rank '“ Beast Constellation

8th-rank '“ Saint Constellation

9th-rank or higher '“ True Constellation

After the immortal realm, people named them as deities, the same way they called Dao Gods. Many beast deities were nicknamed Primordial Chaos Beasts, Beast Gods, or Divine Beasts. No one could evaluate their strength with tiers or realms anymore as their cultivation methods were unique.

Currently, the hawk was the 3rd-rank immortal beast, the First Class Mystical Beast. However, it was a domesticated type. As humans from his continent had raised it from birth, it fed on whatever its master had given. As a result, its hunting instinct and combat experience were lacking.

Miaomiao already understood the category since Meowmeow taught him a lot about himself. The former also knew about the rough strength of the cat.

"Alright, Rocky! Go kill that cat for me! You can eat it if you want to, but spare its beast core!"

KREEE

The hawk chirped and swooped down. It cladded itself with soul essence and terra element essence while it opened its beak.

At the same time, a soul domain was erected and locked Meowmeow in a confinement cube, not allowing him to move.

A sound wave attack came for Meowmeow first.

"Munya? Singing a song for me? I love songs, Munya!"

The catopus suddenly fetched a wireless microphone out from a spatial necklace that he was wearing. He began screaming.

"MU'¦NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"

The noise contained Meowmeow's Dao, a ferocious Cathulhu. As he screamed, an illusion of a 1,000 meters tall Cathulhu emerged and looked down on everyone as if the god was gazing at the puny mortals. The round and large pupils of the Cathulhu frightened the cultivators and the fortress guards.

The soul domain cube was shattered like a broken glass that couldn't withstand Meowmeow's sound wave. The scream was so loud that Miaomiao and others had to cover their ears.

Miaomiao and bystander's eardrums were also ruptured. Many weak cultivators cried in pain and collapsed on the ground. As for Miaomiao, his regeneration speed offset the damage. His injuries were instantly healed.

Meanwhile, the loud noise of Meowmeow interrupted its Soul Essence and Elemental Essence. The barrier around it was dispelled.

The cat lunged at the diving hawk and instantly caught it with his eight fat tentacles. He expanded his body and wrapped it under his arms.

"Chicken's meat is delicious, Munya!"

Meowmeow instantly plucked the hawk feathers with his suckers on his tentacles. Within a second, the mighty giant hawk turned into a chicken-like bird without a feather.

The hawk cried in pain and despair. It tried to use its Dao and Soul Domain. However, with a weakened mentality, he failed to utilize his hidden energy.

CHOMP

Mercilessly, the cat bared its fang and devoured the hawk whole! He chewed it in glee while his cheeks were round and fluffy.

The crouch sounds of bone-shattering and breaking were so loud that everyone on the fortress could hear it even though their eardrums were ruptured. It was as if Meowmeow did it on purpose.

"R-Rocky!"

The guard leader was in disbelief. His pet was a 3rd-rank immortal beast. Yet, the weird cat easily killed it and ate it alive.

Miaomiao laughed and shook his head, "This is what you get for being overbearing. Hasn't any protagonist taught you not to offend a suspicious guy with an abnormally weak cultivation base? Isn't it obvious that I'm out of place, but I have the guts to look down on you? What are the chances that I'm a stupid country-bumpkin? What are the chances that I might be an immortal that has been hiding his cultivation base?"

"'¦"

The guard leader couldn't understand Miaomiao. Still, he blamed the latter for his loss.

"You'¦ Mao Miaomiao! I've remembered your name! The Seven Great Clans will not let you leave this continent alive!"

"Such a cliché proclamation from a third-rated villain. Now, you make me feel like a protagonist'¦ Oh wait, I stole the luck of those guys, so I'm the protagonist here. No wonder these people have a minus IQ."

While Miaomiao was making fun of his current situation, the guard leader sent his voice transmission to his superior officers.

"You're dead! I've called the elders of the Zhang Clan! They know where you are now!"

Miaomiao took several deep breaths and nodded several times. He understood now why protagonists in novels loved to face-slap these people.

Still, Devil told him that protagonists usually behaved like a mass-murderer. Miaomiao didn't want to become one of the edgy righteous killers, who killed the young and endlessly offended the old. He changed his mindset from an overbearing protagonist to a crafty villain. However, this villain was on the bonker's side.

"You know what? I'll let you go. Hey, Meowmeow! If you're done eating, come down. We need to report ourselves before the sunset!"

"You're not going anywhere!"

The guard leader had enough. He charged at Miaomiao with his spear and activated his soul domain.

The spear Dao and his domain were similar to Ma Ping's power. A hundred spear tips appeared around Miaomiao and struck him.

However, they failed to puncture through his skin.

Miaomiao's tender jade skin turned into black dragon scales. A visor helmet with a phoenix-feather cap manifested, and he turned into a Dragonewt-War God hybrid.

The guard captain noticed that his attack was ineffective against Miaomiao. He figured the latter's strength, "A physique cultivator, I see! But 6th-stage trash can't possibly defeat an 8th-stage cultivator!"

Miaomiao laughed and mimicked Dio Brando's voice, "I can say the same. A 3rd-rated villain's potential is finite. Even your soul domain technique is'¦ MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA DA!!"

"What?!"

"A monkey can't possibly stand against a human, AND YOU'RE THE MONKEY DA, JOJO!!"

"Who's Jojo?!"

Miaomiao leaped toward the guard captain, who countered with a flurry spear technique.

The guard captain's illusion spears barraged on Miaomiao's scale armor and his visor mask. Each strike contained the Dao of Spearsmanship, which slowly chipped the scales and the armor of Miaomiao.

However, Miaomiao's armor and scales self-repaired every second. He stood there and waved his arms, leisurely gathering his Dao and circulating his Qi.

As soon as the guard got into his range, Miaomiao drew Killer Queen.

The katana suddenly woke up after a long slumber. She complained as soon as she woke up.

'You finally feel like using me?! I was so bored that I thought I was abandoned! Now, where's my food?!'

Miaomiao injected his Dao and activated the Vampiric Touch techniques to the black katana. Then, KQ understood his intention.

She cackled and circulated her Qi into Miaomiao's arm.

The sword and the swordsman became one. Then, Miaomiao slowly hacked down while he ignored the spear strikes.

The guard captain sneered at the slow attack. He purposely grabbed the blade with his hand, planning to steal the Heaven-Grade treasure, believing that it couldn't possibly harm him.

As soon as he touched Killer Queen, his soul Qi suddenly vanished. Everything was sucked into the blade. Even his dantian was dried.

His soul physique cracked as there was no energy left inside his body.

The captain, the guards, and the bystanders widened their eyes in disbelief. They were confused why the captain suddenly lost all his Qi.

"A third-rate villain's role is always cannon fodder. You are nothing more than EXP for me. Well then, where is your spatial ring?"

Without waiting for the captain to react, Miaomiao chopped off the guard's hand and pulled out three spatial rings. He ignored his opponent and checked the contents.

Two rings only contained necessity pills, essence cores, and clothes. However, the glowing one contained a bright grimoire.

The cover was written '“ Record of Divine Spear

Miaomiao laughed. His protagonist's plot armor was still strong. Indeed, he scored big after defeating a silly villain on his first try.

"This is why protagonists are haxxors. Well, I can't complain."

"M-My spatial rings'¦"

The guard captain trembled as he fell on his knees. Both his feet already crumbled into dust as no soul Qi remained in his body. Soon, he would disappear from the world.

Miaomiao bonked the captain with KQ's blunt edge, and the head was broken like a crumbling sandcastle.

Just like that, Miaomiao killed a real-world 8th-stage cultivator for the first time.

"H-He's dead?"

"A-A-A sixth-stage cultivator killed an 8th-stage cultivator?"

From the local's perspective, Miaomiao's deed was unheard of. No nascent soul cultivator could be an 8th-stage cultivator's opponent due to the gap in their big realms. Yet, Miaomiao easily killed one in front of them.

Their understanding of the world was turned upside down. They couldn't believe what they saw.

Miaomiao ignored the crowd's reaction and looked up, and the cat had already come down. They were ready to leave.

Unfortunately, in novels, after a protagonist killed a young rival, a stronger relative of the dead rival would always come out for revenge. These people could be an elder sibling, a spouse, a parent, an uncle, an elder, a patriarch of a clan, or even the undying ancient ancestor of the rival's clan.

There was even a proverb '“ Kills the young, comes the old.

WHOOSH

Three elderly men in black robes descended and surrounded Miaomiao. Two of them emitted the aura of 9th-stage cultivators while the other one was an immortal!

"WHO CAUSES A STRIFE HERE?! IDENTIFY YOURSELF!"

Miaomiao rolled his eyes and sent his voice transmission to Uriel.

'A little help, please. I don't want to kill these fools and become a full-fledged protagonist. Let me live like a villain or a neutral character.'

Before Uriel could even reply, Meowmeow already lunged at the immortal elder. He caught the elder in his tentacles.

"MORE FOOD, MUNYA!"

Killer Queen also cried, 'I'M HUNGRY! WHERE'S MY FOOD?!'

"'¦"

Miaomiao facepalmed.. These two's appetite was on par with Dian Wei.
