Villain Cultivator

Chapter 325: The Gang's First Systematic Fight

= A few days earlier =

"Everyone, recheck your gears and your condition. I'll give you five more minutes to prepare for the last time."

Miaomiao gazed at his yin slaves, Wei Yuan, and Ju Shoufen. This would be their second attempt that they would fight Xie Tian in the 400% difficulty setting.

Everyone came here with their best gear and best condition. They had been saving up their essence for this event.

The gang had one thing in their mind.

Revenge!

Miaomiao took a deep breath and steeled himself. Last time, he summoned Xie Tian and fought him unprepared. But now, they had learned Xie Tian's abilities, skills, and attack patterns. They had even trained hard for this day.

The girls warmed up and circulated their essence throughout their bodies, getting ready to face the massive dragon fire domain and the uncertainties.

"I'm ready!" Wei Yuan reported first.

"Ready!" Ju Shoufen was also excited.

The other women were also eager to have a go. However, the outsider only observed the fight from the distance.

Xu Chu gazed at the group and shook her head. She sat on a boulder on a hill nearby while she sipped the tea that the entertainment doll had brewed for her.

The doll was an automaton, operated by an A.I. and sophisticated programs. She was now Xu Chu's personal maid.

Xu Chu had equipped the doll with a handmade wig and a bathrobe, so she didn't have to walk around naked like herself.

"Whatever you do, do it properly. I won't help you again," The succubus ancestor warned Miaomiao that she took no part in whatever they would be doing.

Miaomiao had a wry smile on his face. It was understandable since Xu Chu wouldn't be interested in weak opponents. Moreover, Xu Chu couldn't get a reward for killing Xie Tian.

'Dion, can you make an exception? Can't Xu Chu join us?'

Ding

[Negative. Xu Chu hasn't officially become a part of your family.]

[Please make her your familiar so that she can be a part of your family.]

Dion was still strict even though she was no longer influenced by the devil, which making Miaomiao sad.

He looked at Xu Chu, asking her one more time, "Senior Xu, could you pledge allegiance to me and be my familiar? You can get several rare skills for free if you serve under me. I can bring you out of this place, too."

"Fuck no."

Heartlessly, Xu Chu declined without hesitation.

"Haiz."

Miaomiao sighed and turned away from Xu Chu. Now, he had to change his mindset and prepare for a difficult fight.

Five minutes quickly passed. Now, it was the time to summon Xie Tian for the rematch.

"Come out!"

Miaomiao summoned Xie Tian's clone right away.

The former nemesis of Miaomiao emerged. Xie Tian slowly opened his eyes and glared at the summoner as if he had remembered how he died.

BOOM

Xie Tian activated his dragon fire domain right away, engulfing Miaomiao and his wives in flame.

However, everyone came prepared.

Kang Yan, Ma Xingjuan, and the succubus team cast water element barriers to protect themselves. As for the vampires, they circulated their fire element Qi to increase their fire resistance.

Ju Shoufen resisted the flame domain and proceeded as plan, rushing at Xie Tian as a vanguard. Behind the loli grandma, Miaomiao followed after her for support.

Fang Meirong nocked an arrow, embedded with blood element arrowhead, and drew her great bow.

WHOOSH

Upon release, the blood arrow beamed toward the target - Xie Tian's forehead.

"HMM!"

Surprised by the sudden lightning-speed arrow, Xie Tian groaned and transformed his forehead skin into dragon scales.

SUEK

Even though Xie Tian's physique was superior to most physiques in Heavenly Goose Planet, the condensed blood element Qi in the arrowhead pierced through his skin.

Unfortunately, Xie Tian's skull stopped the arrow from reaching his brain. His dragon fire barrier managed to stop it before the arrowhead could break through his bone.

Still, the ambush gave Ju Shoufen and Miaomiao enough time to reach him.

Ju Shoufen transformed into a fire crow and spat a green flame toward Xie Tian's face.

Xie Tian pulled out the arrow and cleaved the green fireball with his heaven-grade saber.

The fireball was cut in half!

This created another opening. Miaomiao, who had been following close behind Ju Shoufen, flew over Xie Tian. His hand touched the clone's head and injected his dragon fire element Qi into the brain.

As if Xie Tian knew what this Qi could do, he transformed into a crimson dragonewt and ejected Miaomiao's Qi back to the owner.

At the same moment, Ju Shoufen's flame body turned green and she charged directly toward Xie Tian's stomach.

BOOM

Ju Shoufen's beak punctured through Xie Tian's stomach, and the firebird exited through to the other side, leaving a large gaping hole!

"AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!"

As soon as Xie Tian screamed, the time stopped flowing forward. Miaomiao and Ju Shoufen could no longer control their bodies as they were pulled back to the place where they had stood before they had begun the attack.

Return to Zero had been used.

Xie Tian panted and knelt to the ground. He dispelled the dragon fire domain and stared at his opponents.

The girls clicked their tongue as they had expected this. Still, everything was according to their plan and prediction.

"ALL OUT ATTACK! NOW!"

Miaomiao shouted and charged toward Xie Tian again. He created a red beam sword, using it instead of Killer Queen.

However, the girls didn't follow after Miaomiao despite receiving his order. They scattered and surrounded Xie Tian while they kept their 1-kilometer distance.

The command was a bluff.

Xie Tian, who had prepared to fight several opponents at once, had already finished condensing his essence and dragon fire Qi, planning to blow everything in the range of 500 meters to smithereens. However, only Miaomiao was in his range.

Xie Tian ignored the inefficiency of his skill and activated it anyway.

BOOM

Within 500 meters around Xie Tian, the meadow erupted and orange magma gushed out from the ground like a reverse waterfall.

Miaomiao suffered from a direct impact and the power of lava. He was sent to the sky along with the caster.

All girls kicked the ground and shuttled to the sky, following the two men. Still, they hadn't approached them.

Miaomiao backflipped and floated over the lava fountain. All his clothes had been burnt, leaving him naked.

On the other hand, Xie Tian was still in his fire dragonewt form. His heaven-grade scale armor, shin guards, shoulder guards, and custom battle helmet that fit his dragon head were immune to the lava fire.

Miaomiao had no idea how and when Xie Tian managed to equip his new gears, but he didn't care. His legs kicked the empty air as if there was an invisible floor under his feet, walking toward Xie Tian.

Xie Tian brandished his saber and countercharged.

While walking, the lightsaber in Miaomiao's right hand drew a square and his left fingertips drew several Chinese characters and pasted them in the middle of the picture.

Death Sword Fortress Technique, Inumerable Word Formation!

The square and the Chinese characters suddenly scattered and spun like an uncontrolled whirlwind, surrounding Miaomiao and Xie Tian. From nine unknown symbols, they multiplied into 81, then 729, then, 6,561.

Within a second, over 40 million of these unknown characters created nine colossus rings of characters, orbiting around both fighters. Four of them rotated clockwise, while the other four moved counterclockwise. Only one of the rings remained still.

Xie Tian ignored the strange formation and hacked at Miaomiao.

Miaomiao parried it with the lightsaber in his right hand.

As soon as Miaomiao's lightsaber touched Xie Tian's heaven-grade saber, the flying Chinese characters transformed into the words, [Vampiric Touch], and began to suck the essence energy of both fighters.

This was a combination between his system skill, Death Sword Fortress, and his own skill, Vampiric Touch. Instead of writing the word, [Sword], and transform the characters into swords to attack his enemy, Miaomiao changed it to the name of his skill to apply its effect on the formation instead.

Both Miaomiao and Xie Tian could feel that their essence left their bodies at a rapid rate. Yet, only Xie Tian's face grimaced.

The square that Miaomiao had just drawn earlier flashed and orbited around him, sending the drained energy back into his dantian!

Xie Tian's eyes flared as he had figured what Miaomiao had just done. He roared and allocated 50% of his essence into his dragonewt wings. Then, with a single flap, he instantly appeared in front of Miaomiao.

Despite being caught off guard, Miaomiao stared into Xie Tian's eyes.

BANG

BANG

BANG

Within a second, both men traded blows 300 times.

Miaomiao's body was hacked and cut. Yet, Xie Tian's saber failed to break or get through his bones. Vice versa, Miaomiao's lightsaber also couldn't leave a wound on Xie Tian's dragonewt skin.

The exchange was in Xie Tian's favor since he was immune to Miaomiao's energy sword. He pressed on the attack without bothering to defend himself.

As for Miaomiao, he patiently parried and counterattacked whenever he could. Strangely, from his perception, Xie Tian didn't have red lines or a point of death.

He couldn't find Xie Tian's weakness!

Yet, undaunted, Miaomiao kept on draining Xie Tian's Qi and Essence while he tried to survive the onslaught, buying time for the formation to deplete the clone's Qi.

While Xie Tian's aggro locked onto Miaomiao, the girls in the sky slowly crept closer toward the ring formation, waiting for the right opportunity.

Five minutes later, Miaomiao's right arm was sent to the sky. At long last, Xie Tian broke through Miaomiao's defense and his regeneration ability. He managed to sever his opponent's dominant arm.

Despite losing an arm, Miaomiao persisted in attacking Xie Tian with the red lightsaber in his left hand. He kept locking his sight with Xie Tian's glare, keeping the latter's attention to himself.

Xie Tian sensed the opportunity. He started mimicking Miaomiao's moves, which had been used against him in the previous run.

Atomic Slash!

Seeing the lightning-fast slashes, Miaomiao bitterly smiled as he commanded the ring formation to shrink.

The 100 slashes chopped Miaomiao's torso, left arm, and legs to pieces, leaving Miaomiao's head and his upper chest intact as he had used every bit of Qi to protect his heart and brain.

Miaomiao allowed his head and chest to fall into the lava fountain as he mockingly smiled at Xie Tian.

Nine rings of glowing words, which had been draining Xie Tian's Qi, shrunk and squeezed Xie Tian. From his lower shoulders to his thighs, the nine rings tied him and slowly got smaller, cracking and breaking his bones.

Xie Tian widened his eyes and mustered his power to break free. However, his Qi was emptied. Maintaining his dragonewt form was the best he could do.

At that moment, a dozen swords and spears, enhanced by various element Qi, stabbed Xie Tian's head.

Out of 15 weapons, one of them managed to get through his dragon scales. However, that was more than enough.

Ju Chen, whose weapon managed to dig a centimeter into the back of Xie Tian's head, began to suck his blood.

Vampiric Touch!

"!!!"

Xie Tian panicked as he screamed and tried to move his body, struggling to fly away from the women.

As Xie Tian kept opening his mouth, pink miasma from the succubus team entered his lung and his brain.

The clone of the protagonist was helpless without his fire dragon Qi. His mind slowly wavered as Jiang Lan and others attempted to mind-control him first.

Getting debuffed by the seductresses, Xie Tian stopped struggling.

BOOM

As soon as Xie Tian had stopped mustering his strength to fight against the shrinking rings, his body was crushed under the pressure. The rings got smaller to the point that they became a small rock.

Because of the squeezing and the rings, his intestine, blood, and flesh exploded and scattered everywhere.

Yet, the girls didn't have enough. The succubi ordered their pink miasma to melt Xie Tian's flesh into liquid.

Being melted from the inside, only Xie Tian's remaining head and his spinal cord were left. Then, it fell into the lava fountain.

"NOT YET!! KEEP YOUR GUARD UP!!"

Miaomiao screamed and pointed at the lava fountain. Currently, his head and upper chest were lying on the meadow, 500 meters away from the lava.

Wei Yuan had rescued Miaomiao when he fell into the fountain. Now, she was by his side, feeding him unified spring water to accelerate Miaomiao's regeneration ability.

Kang Yan and Ma Xingjuan heard the command. They scanned through to the lava fountain and found Xie Tian's skull and his upper skeleton.

"THERE!!"

Kang Yan braced the hot lava and grabbed Xie Tian's skull, pulling it out from the fountain. She threw it toward Ma Xingjuan.

As soon as the skull and the spine of Xie Tian were out in the open, everyone was shocked.

The clone already regenerated his entire skeleton body and his head regained his flesh. Xie Tian's eyes also glared at Kang Yan, who just caught him.

"DESTROY HIS BRAIN!! THAT COCKROACH HAS TO BE THOROUGHLY EXTERMINATED!!"

Even without Miaomiao's warning, many weapons stabbed into Xie Tian's eyes, digging them out. Then, they used any means necessary to pry his soft brain out in the open.

Ju Chen yanked Xie Tian's brain out with her knife and the variation of Vampiric Touch through his eye socket. She pulled a portion of it out with her hand and crushed it.

Ding

[Congratulations, you, your yin slaves, and your wife has slain Xie Tian's Clone at 400% difficulty!]
