Villain Cultivator

Chapter 492 '“ Saved by the Bell

"Let me go, you monster!"

The immortal elder roared and unleashed his Soul Essence and Elemental Essence. His soul domain expanded and covered everything in a radius of 100 kilometers.

The immortal's soul domain intimidated everyone in the range. The spectators suddenly felt nauseous, and they vomited everything in their stomachs.

The immortal's colleagues sensed the poison domain. They covered themselves in Soul Qi to dispel the poison.

Miaomiao also sensed the poison in his body. Even Dion reported the anomaly.

Ding

<You have been inflicted with a Poison Curse.>

<As long as you are under the Poison Curse Domain, you will suffer from a random disease.>

<The Poison Curse's random disease will severe your meridian channels, seal your Qi, or break your dantian if you leave it alone for longer than a minute! Please dispel it as soon as possible.>

Ding

<Your Poison Immunity Passive skill is active.>

<Your cultivation base is weaker than the attacker. Your immunity is weakened.>

<You have partially resisted against the poison. You will drive out the poison through bodily fluid.>

Despite the immunity system skills that he had gotten from random clones, poison element crystal, and his dragon bloodline, the poison curse still got to him.

His stomach churned and he felt dizzy. He felt like vomiting.

Miaomiao took a deep breath and took out a bottle of cold spring water to drink. After gulping a mouthful of it, he felt a bit better.

However, he needed to pee.

Shamelessly, Miaomiao took off his pants and began spraying urine on the beach. Strangely, it was dark green. He felt like he had a urinary tract infection or STD, but every organ inside him was fine.

The urine contained the Poison of the elder. Miaomiao's body naturally eliminated the dead poison out of his body systems. However, instead of getting rid of them through his pores as normal cultivators did, his body system digested them and filtered the unusable poison out through urine.

Fortunately, nobody paid attention to Miaomiao's shameless action as they were busy driving the poison curse out of their bodies.

"MUNYAAAA!!"

BOOM

Meowmeow was enraged by the poison ability of the elder. He tightened his tentacles and slammed the elder around.

He couldn't harm the elder, but Meowmeow managed to disrupt the domain power with his brute force.

The domain shrank and the power was weakened.

Miaomiao recovered first. The spectators and the elder's allies also ate pills and recovered from the poison effect.

While Meowmeow was about to peel the elder's clothes and swallow him whole, majestic voices of a hundred immortals resounded in the area.

"ENOUGH!! STOP FIGHTING!!"

A hundred immortals descended from the sky. Among them, Uriel, Azazel, and Karen were there as well.

Uriel rushed to Miaomiao's side and checked his condition. Upon seeing that Miaomiao had his pants down, he regretted coming down so soon.

"Put your pants on. Don't swing your dick around in public. It's disgusting."

"'¦ I was taking a piss. Why are you looking?"

"Who in the right mind takes off his pants and pisses in the middle of a crowd, you dumb son of a beach!"

"Oh."

"Don't OH me. Now, turn around and apologize to all the seniors!"

"But I'm the victim. They are bullying me."

"Just do it! Do you want to become one of those obstinate protagonists that can't apologize or compromise?"

"'¦ Fair enough."

Uriel turned to Meowmeow, "You, too, the child of Mu-Nyang. Let him go, so we can talk."

Meowmeow stared at Uriel with a deep frown. Then, he looked at Miaomiao.

Miaomiao hand-gestured, ordering Meowmeow to let the elder go.

The cat released the elder and pouted. He shrank to a normal cat's size and returned to a cute catopus. Then, he climbed up and sat on Miaomiao's head, his usual place.

The elder grumbled as he also wanted to continue the fight. Still, with so many immortals and gods around, he didn't dare to act recklessly. He bowed toward them.

"My deepest apologies for causing you trouble, Your Holiness Karen."

The fat swan, Karen, nodded as she accepted the apology. She turned to Miaomiao and the catopus, "Care to explain what happened here, Mao Miaomiao?"

"Oh, you know me?" Miaomiao was surprised.

"Obviously, I'm one of your subscribers."

"Then, you should have already known what happened here if you watch my channel."

"I don't watch it 24/7 like the other hobo fans of yours."

Ding

<Many immortals are offended by the Swan Goddess' remarks.>

<Kunwu is fume with rage and accidentally cut his precious bonsai in his garden.>

<Kunwu sent a message.>

<"Who are you calling a hobo, you depraved goose-wannabe swan?!">

"'¦"

It seemed like this swan might not live long because of her foul mouth.

Karen continued to press for Miaomiao's explanation, "Speak! If you don't speak, I'll ask the others!"

One of the guards suddenly intruded on the conversation. He raised his hands and tried to speak. Unfortunately, his eardrums were still damaged, and he spoke too loud.

"THIS MAN INTRUDES OUR CONTINENT, YOUR HOLINESS! WE WERE APPREHENDING HIM, BUT HE RESISTED!"

"Shut up! Who is asking you?!"

The swan honked at the soldier, and the latter was disintegrated into dust. The condensed soul dantian of the poor man dropped on the sand along with his armors, treasure spear, and spatial rings.

Miaomiao didn't miss those. He secretly manipulated his dark element Qi to extend his shadow toward the orb. The long shadow reached it, and all items sank into Miaomiao's system inventory.

A precious soul dantian of an 8th-stage cultivator might be useful. Miaomiao kept everything to himself.

While Miaomiao was looting the items, he attracted everyone's attention by confessing.

"I've just arrived here on this continent, but those men stopped me. I told them my name, my affiliation, and my purposes, but they suddenly attacked me."

Karen glanced at the other guards, "Is that true?"

The guards shook their heads, "No, Your Holiness. He attacked us first!"

"Oh?"

Karen grinned as she smirked at Uriel.

The latter scoffed, "How about we look at Miaomiao's live-stream channel's playback record together, so we can decide who is right or wrong?"

"Sure."

Uriel summoned a large semi-transparent screen in mid-air. Then, he used his authority to replay Miaomiao's recorded live stream.

He rolled back the time. The screen showed how Miaomiao ignored the border custom and got to the continent.

"Haha! He ignores the custom border!" Karen laughed while other immortals only watched the replay, interested in what might happen next.

The next event, Miaomiao clearly stated his affiliation, name, and his status as a VIP guest. However, the guards ignored the former's words and mocked Miaomiao. They even summoned an immortal beast to attack the catopus.

The table was turned, and Meowmeow slaughtered the giant hawk. Miaomiao also turned the guard captain into dust after enduring barrages of spear strikes.

Everything was clearly self-defense!

"'¦"

Karen closed her eyes. She took several deep breaths and slowly turned to the other guards, who had surrounded Miaomiao earlier.

"Has one of you even checked if his words were legit? Did you check his name with our VIP guest list?"

The guards shook their heads as they sweated profusely. They were too busy today, and they didn't bother investigating Miaomiao's background.

Karen covered her face with her white wing. Then, her face turned dark.

"Mao Miaomiao, the patriarch of Mao Clan, is one of the contestants of the Great Clan Tournament! How dare you treat MY guest this poorly!!"

Although Karen didn't like Miaomiao, she still had to save her face and reputation. She blamed this incident on the party of 8th-stage cultivators.

"W-W-We didn't know!"

The swan honked again, and all the guards were reduced into dust. However, she didn't touch the elders and the immortal elder.

The trio, who had come to revenge for the guard captain, knelt and kowtowed toward Karen, "Their indiscipline actions are our fault. We didn't educate them properly. Please punish us."

"You didn't know, so none of you is at fault. If you want to blame someone, blame Mao Miaomiao. He doesn't follow the correct procedure," Karen then turned to Miaomiao, "You are also at fault. Why didn't you show your identity token or come with your lords? You are under Uriel, so you should have come here together with him!"

"'¦"

Miaomiao scratched his head, but he ended up scratching Meowmeow's head instead. The cat purred in bliss.

Their actions annoyed Karen. Her white features turned red, "Alright. Since both sides are at fault, I'll decide your punishment later! Remember, this planet is mine. Don't use your immortal beast to fight and destroy my planet! This mortal planet won't be able to withstand the power of soul essence or Advanced Dao!"

A battle between immortals might damage the mortal planet. After all, each planet had a certain threshold of foundation, stability, and sustainability. If one of them suddenly unleashed a Heaven Dao, the advanced Dao of high-rank immortals, the Golden Heavenly Goose Planet might be reduced into a plane or be destroyed.

Miaomiao shrugged as if it was none of his business, "I'll be careful."

"Good."

Karen scoffed and looked at Uriel again, "Educate your vessel properly. Do War Droids only interest in hoodlums and perverts?"

Uriel didn't refute. He waved his hand, shooing Karen and others, "Whatever. We're done here. Let's head back and prepare the tournament arrays."

"'¦"

Karen wanted to defame Uriel more, but she didn't want to push it. She snorted and returned to the capital city.

The other immortals also sized up Miaomiao and his pet. Upon discovering that Miaomiao was only a fledgling 6th-stage cultivator with only one Core Pillar, they lost interest.

The immortals followed Karen and left.

Meanwhile, the elder that fought against Meowmeow glared at the cat and Miaomiao. He clicked his tongue and stood up, after which he ordered the others to return to their posts.

Just like that, Miaomiao and Meowmeow managed to avoid the fight.

Uriel heaved a sigh of relief, he warned Miaomiao, "Be careful about your protagonist's luck. You're prone to get into trouble, especially when you're strolling in a villain's turf."

"How should I know if they're villains? They just show up left and right."

"Consider strangers on this planet and the universe as villains. As for neutral characters'¦ well, if you see peerless beauties with jade-white skin that are popular with a bunch of young masters, they are neutral characters. There is no other protagonist on this continent aside from you... for now."

"'¦"

Sometimes, Miaomiao wanted to ask Uriel why he was knowledgeable in this area as this wasn't something that he, the local of this world, should know. Miaomiao wondered if Uriel was a transmigrator from the modern world as well.

"Anyway, you two should follow me. We need to get ready for your tournament. It will be unpleasant."

'¦

Uriel and Azazel led Miaomiao and his pet to the prepared courtyard of their clan.

Upon arrival, Miaomiao found his wives, his disciples, his subordinates, the elders, and other representatives. Even Nero was resting there, curling and sleeping soundly.

Dian Wei woke up from her slumber as she sensed an odd aura of a catopus. She stared at Meowmeow on top of Miaomiao's head.

Then, she drooled.

"A beast? Food?"

Meowmeow also stared at Dian Wei. He tilted his head, and his pupils expanded, "A spider? Food?"

Sparks from their eyes clashed. An odd rivalry was born.

The others also noticed Miaomiao's new pet, but they weren't surprised. After all, they had seen Miaomiao's live stream channel through Uriel's account. They only waved at the cat to greet it.

The yin slaves jumped Miaomiao as they missed his warmth. However, Uriel created an invisible wall to stop them.

Uriel's voice cracked for a moment, and he sounded similar to someone that Miaomiao knew, but the latter couldn't remember, "Calm your nipples and listen to me, ladies."

Miaomiao didn't pay attention to the voice, but Wei Yuan did. She noticed the similarity in Uriel's voice and someone else among them, but she kept this information to herself.

"Tomorrow, the Holy Land Tournament will start. I'll explain the purposes of this tournament for the newcomers. As for the veterans, you listen as well. The immortals have changed the rules, and it doesn't look good for us."

The expression of everyone but Miaomiao turned solemn as they had witnessed Karen's tantrum. They also knew about the changes in the Clan Lord Tournament.

But Uriel told them something new.

"There are a total of 2,073 contestants this year. 310 are from seven major continents. 1,500 are the Holy Land Continent's local cultivators, and the rest are extras qualified fighters from various small islands."

"Huh?"

Even the veteran like Ju Shoufen squinted her brows. The number of participants was too high!

Miaomiao also noticed the weird numbers. He interjected, "There are seven major continents, but why are there 310 contestants?"

Uriel sighed, "This is your fault, Miaomiao. You injured me in that plane and caused me to beg Karen so she could delay the tournament for months. In exchange for that, the other continents and the locals got to send extra fighters, and they abused it. Now, we are outnumbered."

"'¦"

"But don't worry. There won't be any group fights in this tournament. All matches will be one-on-one duel elimination matches. At best, everyone gets to fight once a day or once every two days. However'¦"

Uriel paused as he revealed a piece of bad news.

"First, no one can use any item, weaponry, armor, treasure, artifact, or pill during combat. All weapons are provided by the host of the tournament. However, all your items, even if you can't use them, will be confiscated by the tournament staff, and they will return them to you when the match ends."

"Huh?"

"Secondly, there's a gamble in every match. The winner gets to decide the loser's fate, and all confiscated items of the losers will be given to the winners. You can even demand the losers to become your slaves if you win. Vice versa, your opponents can order you to be their slaves as well. The women should be careful when you're fighting against a strong guy.. If you think you can't defeat your opponent, you must forfeit the match before you get onto the stage. Once you're on the stage, you will automatically agree to this condition!"
