Villain Cultivator

Chapter 477: Time Travel?

As Miaomiao was diving into the abyss, he sensed that the gravity force was weaker than when he first left the platform. Even with his massive dragon body, he couldn\'t seem to use his weight to propel forward faster.

However, he almost caught up with Guan Yunchang, Liu Xuande, and Zhang Yide. A few seconds earlier, he saw Guan Yunchang and Liu Xuande entering the massive vortex portal, which might be the exit to another realm.

Miaomiao gritted his teeth and wiggled his legs and wings as if he was swimming in the void. Yet, his speed kept getting slower.

"Boss!"

Ma Moxi caught up to him. The assassin landed on the back of Miaomiao and proceeded to climb his long neck. Then, he sat on top of his head and waved the red gem in front of Miaomiao\'s eyes.

"You forgot this. Keep this with you! Hurry!"

Miaomiao realized that he had forgotten the red gem. He opened his mouth, and Ma Moxi tossed it inside.

Miaomiao kept the gem under his tongue for now.

Before he could reach the vortex, Ma Moxi reminded him.

"Boss, please calm down. Your wives are still alive. There\'s no need to pursue them to the end of the earth. We can get them later."

"No."

Miaomiao grumbled. He kept waving his legs, swimming through the void.

He didn\'t realize that he acted like a monitor lizard in water, swimming with a weird posture.

Before he reached the portal, he heard the mysterious voice of the unknown old man.

\'Liu Xuande, Ma Moxi, and Mao Miaomiao are the winners of this game. As for the losers, Brocell will be eliminated.\'

…

BOOM

Brocell\'s body dissipated instantly. Yet, he was expressionless before he disappeared.

A few seconds later, the real body of Brocell inside his dungeon snapped open his eyes. He vomited several mouthfuls of blood and collapsed fell off his throne.

CJ and two female robots rushed to him.

"Boss!?"

Brocell raised his hand, "I\'m fine."

One of the female android robots with short blue hair scanned Brocell\'s life force. She winced and spoke in a monotone, "Your Soul Qi volume has dropped by 95%, and your soul dantian is critically damaged. It is advised that you should recuperate in the medical facility and enter the hibernation chamber."

"I said, I\'m fine."

"Detecting erratic Soul Qi fluctuation. The probability of you telling the truth is less than 0.2%."

"..."

Brocell shook his head and gave up. He lay on the floor and gazed at the ceiling.

"Bring me to the medical room. I\'ll hibernate for a few years."

"Certainly."

The android princess carried Brocell to the medical room. Then, he glanced at his crotch area.

"Would you like me to help you discharge your semen like the usual?"

"No. I want to rest. I\'ve played enough, though. Once I wake up again, I\'ll be seriously working on our dungeons and increase our DP income."

"Understood."

"Also, while I\'m sleeping, shut down the dungeon entrance from Aves Continent. Only hunt the cultivators from other continents."

"What about businesses?"

"Cease them. Focus on killing intruders and collect DP."

"… Affirmative."

…

CJ blankly stared at his boss for a moment. After all female androids left along with Brocell, he sighed.

Unfortunately for the former alchemist and arms dealer, CJ didn\'t get to rest.

He heard the voice transmission of someone he had never wanted to hear.

It was Yuan Hua\'s voice!

\'CJ, my master wants your pledge of allegiance. Swear allegiance to my master, and you can continue to live. Refuse, and I shall kill you.\'

CJ was shocked. He thought that Yuan Hua had already forgotten about him or cut ties with him.

He thought that Yuan Hua could no longer mess with his life.

"H-How!?"

\'I will not repeat myself. Choose! Be my master\'s vessel or die!\'

CJ bit his lower lips. He bitterly lowered his head, "What do I get in return?"

\'Eternal life! My master also promises to send you back to Earth if you fulfill his orders!\'

CJ gulped. His round pupils regained light as he thought of his time in LA with his friends.

He wanted to return to his homeworld!

"Who is your master?"

\'It doesn\'t matter! Will you swear allegiance to him or not!?\'

"I swear allegiance to him. Don\'t kill me."

\'Wise decision.\'

BADUMP

CJ\'s heart skipped a beat. He suddenly sensed the connection between him and another powerful being.

However, that being didn\'t seem to be a human god. His aura seemed… bloody and sinister.

…

"Boss, that bastard is finally dead!"

Ma Moxi celebrated after he heard that Brocell was eliminated. He thought that the dungeon master was killed.

The loud voice of Ma Moxi annoyed Miaomiao. He groaned, "Shut up, and don\'t yell into my ears! I\'m sensitive to noises in this form!"

"Whoops, sorry!"

Miaomiao and Ma Moxi entered the portal. As soon as they entered, the mysterious vortex was closed.

WHOOM

The portal sent Ma Moxi and Miaomiao through a strange colorful straight tunnel. Both of them were propelled forward, heading toward the other end of the dimension.

The walls of this tunnel glittered and flashed static images of unknown events.

One of them showed a desolated aftermath of a medieval battlefield, but the corpses on the ground consisted of both humans and monsters. Another one revealed a beautiful blue sky and several flying chickens with yellow fur. The third one displayed a white alien, standing in front of Shenlong Dragon and seven giant crystal balls.

Both Ma Moxi and Miaomiao were captivated by the random scenes.

"Are these…"

"Is this a hyperspace?"

They didn\'t get enough time to analyze or inspect those images. After 10 seconds, both of them reached the exit of this tunnel.

The exit portal threw Miaomiao to a grassland.

Miaomiao flipped his giant body and landed on the ground.

BADUMP

After crossing the portal, Miaomiao regained his cultivation base and control over his Qi.

"Finally," Miaomiao sneered. He immediately looked around to find Guan Yunchang and Liu Xuande.

However, he only found several thousands of panicking commoners and weak cultivators, who had been traveling in a certain direction.

Miaomiao frowned as he felt like he had seen these groups of commoners and weak cultivators before. Most of them were either 1st-stage or 2nd-stage weaklings. Only a handful of individuals in carriages had the cultivation of 5th-stage. Even the strongest of them all was a 6th-stage cultivator.

"Where is that bastard?"

Miaomiao spread his Qi sense around. Yet, in the radius of 100 kilometers, he found no 8th-stage cultivator or the life signature of Liu Xuande.

Then, he sensed that something was missing.

Earlier, Ma Moxi was sitting on his head and holding him by the horns. But now, he wasn\'t with Miaomiao.

"Huh?"

Miaomiao wrinkled his brows. In before, his anger had already reached the max gauge, and the current situation increased his anger meter by 50%. If he were a Dynasty Warrior Character, he would have automatically activated his Musou Mode.

Disinterested in weaklings and commoners, Miaomiao turned around, planning to search for Guan Yunchang and Ma Moxi\'s whereabouts.

But then, the corner of his eyes spotted a banner with the character, "Wei".

The lone carriage of that banner also looked oddly familiar. Miaomiao felt like he had seen that vehicle somewhere before, but he forgot.

Soon, 5th-stage and 6th-stage experts from various caravans and carriages surrounded Miaomiao. They unsheathed their swords and glared at him.

"Evil dragon! How dare you attack Mountain Goose City!?"

Miaomiao widened his eyes and stared at the leader of these cultivators in disbelief.

He was a white-haired old man with a peculiar face. His eyes and sharp nose were similar to Wei Yuan\'s.

Miaomiao remembered him. He was the old man that almost killed him when they first met.

Wei Huang!

The grandfather of Wei Yuan was here!

"Grandfather-in-law?"

Miaomiao muttered in confusion. Though he had the urge to slaughter these people, his anger subsided when he saw the face of someone he knew.

"I thought you were dead. My intel said that your son betrayed you. What are you doing here?"

Wei Huang knitted his brows, "Who is your grandfather-in-law!? Evil dragon, are you trying to kidnap Yuan\'er!?"

"Dafuq?"

Miaomiao tilted his head. He looked around and spread his Qi sense again.

Only then, Miaomiao noticed a few life signatures that he knew. One of them belonged to Wei Feng. As for the other one, it belonged to Wei Yuan.

However, this Wei Yuan was shrinking inside the Wei Clan\'s carriage, peeking through the window. She was merely a 2nd-stage cultivator.

Moreover, Miaomiao couldn\'t sense the system connection with her.

"Mountain Goose City…"

Miaomiao then turned to the direction where the road led toward.

He remembered now. This place should be the road to Mountain Goose City.

If Wei Huang and Wei Yuan were here, then…

Ding

The sound of a bell rang in Miaomiao\'s ears and a semi-transparent panel appeared before him.

[Welcome to Golden Heavenly Goose Planet, where peace is not an option!]

"…"

Miaomiao saw this before. He didn\'t know who, but either Dion or Devil showed him this message when he first arrived in this cultivation world.

[My name is "System" and I will be your assistant while you\'re in this world.]

"This corny line…"

Miaomiao still recognized it. These messages appeared during the first day of his transmigration.

Now, Miaomiao had a bad feeling about this. He wondered if he had just traveled back in time to that day.

Was he sent back to chapter 2?

However, he still remembered the mysterious voice\'s statement. He told everyone that falling into the abyss would lead to another trial.

In addition, Ma Moxi entered the portal at the same time as him. Yet, they got separated.

Therefore, this world might be the world of the said trial. Everything, including the recent events, should have been an illusion. Or else, Miaomiao wouldn\'t be able to explain this development.

"Are you guys the illusion in my head, or are you real?"

Miaomiao smirked at Wei Huang. He felt like bullying the latter a bit.

Wei Huang sensed Miaomiao\'s killing intent. He bellowed and attacked him with an energy sword.

DINK

However, the sword failed to cut through Miaomiao\'s black scales.

"Nice try, grandfather-in-law."

Miaomiao flickered his finger and poked Wei Huang\'s chest. The latter was flung away a hundred meters and vomited blood.

"I thought of you as an invincible villain back then. How come you\'re so weak? You\'re weaker than your clone."

The other cultivators also unleashed their skills and attacked Miaomiao. They hit him everywhere, the chest, the back, the neck, the face, or the horns, and the head.

One of them sneaked behind Miaomiao and attempted to insert his long sword into Miaomiao\'s anus.

Unfortunately for the guy, Miaomiao swung his tail and crushed him to death. This insolence couldn\'t be forgiven or overlooked.

The impact of Miaomiao\'s tail slam caused an earthquake and terrified the cultivators.

Miaomiao waved his right arm as if he was swatting flies. However, the cultivators that got hit by the dragon claws were shattered and reduced to scattered meat.

Ding

As Miaomiao was busy swatting insects around him, the system announced a new quest.

[You have received a quest for the first time.]

[Tutorial Quest 1: Get a girlfriend or have sex with any woman three times within 24 hours.]

[Completion Reward: Unlock Yang Qi Generation perk, Unlock basic system features.]

[Failure Penalty: Death]

"Seriously?"

Miaomiao felt like the trial was provoking him. He wanted to break this illusion and return to the real world.

But then, he had a scare. Deep down inside, Miaomiao had another scary theory.

What if he really traveled back in time?

What if this place was the reality?

What if there was no illusion or trial at all?

Would he repeat Cernun\'s mistake by killing all cultivators here?

But then, he thought of Guan Yunchang\'s smug smile. The anger suppressed his chain of thoughts.

Miaomiao\'s eyes turned red. He turned to the crowd of cultivators and bellowed.

"GET OUT OF MY SIGHT WHILE I\'M BEING NICE!!"

Miaomiao accidentally activated the Goose Tongue. However, by using the howl skill in his dragon form, the destructive power multiplied.

BOOM

Everyone in front of Miaomiao was turned into blood mist. A dozen of cultivators and a thousand innocent bystanders were massacred on the spot.

Wei Yuan in the carriage jumped out of the vehicle and ran toward her injured grandfather. She cried and tried to wake him up.

Miaomiao noticed them with the corner of his eyes. Wei Huang seemed to whisper something to Wei Yuan before he closed his eyes.

Wei Yuan wailed and screamed in despair. Her grandfather was killed!

The voice of Wei Yuan snapped Miaomiao back to his senses once again. He turned to the source of the voice.

Wei Yuan glared at him in resentment. Yet, she turned around and ran toward Mountain Goose City along with other refugees and surviving commoners.

The next second, more familiar faces flew from Mountain Goose City and reached the chaotic site.

Jia Shan, Jian Meng, Xu Xiuying, Fu De, and many elders from Silver Phoenix Sect showed up. They brandished their weapons and got ready to fight.

"KILL THE EVIL DRAGON!!"

"…"

Miaomiao frowned.

Again, something inside Miaomiao told him not to kill them.

Again, Miaomiao was afraid that he might repeat Cernun\'s mistake.

Again, Miaomiao missed the smiling faces of Jia Shan, Wei Yuan, and the girls.

Again, his inner voice reminded him that he should not kill them.

However…

\'Kill.\'

His resurfacing bloodlust wanted him to kill these people. His guts also told him that everything was an illusion.

Not even his eyebrow twitched. There was no danger signal.

They were not real.

Time-traveling should not be happening at this place. After all, Time and Space Law was something unique and rare.

If they were not real...

KILL!

KILL EVERYONE!

KILL THE HUMAN TO THE LAST MAN!

BANG

Miaomiao suddenly slapped his face to snap back to his senses before he lost himself.

He took a deep breath. Then, he bellowed to the sky.

"IS MY SYSTEM SKILL A JOKE!? IS MY MENTAL ATTACK IMMUNITY SKILL A DECORATION!? DION! EXECUTE ORDER 69! FUCK THEM UP!!"

As soon as Miaomiao yelled, all cultivators around him turned into blood mist. Even the fleeing Wei Yuan was not an exception.

The people in the city were exploded. Jia Shan, Xu Xiuying, Fu De, and many others were cut into a million pieces.

No one in the radius of 100 kilometers was left alive!

After everyone had died, the world came into a pause. The colorful grassland and sky turned black and white for a moment.

Then, everything was shattered like broken glass.

Only then, Miaomiao found himself in a transparent cubic in the void. The cube also floated over the platform, which Miaomiao and others had been earlier.

Ding

[You called?]

The "Real" Dion replied and flashed him with a smile emoticon on the semi-transparent screen.

"Yeah. This trial is too corny. No challenge at all."

Miaomiao burst into laughter as he slowly reverted back to his human form. He spat out the red gem that he had been keeping under his tongue.

Miaomiao looked around and found the survivors on the platform, gazing at him in astonishment.

Uriel was hovering over them. He shook his head and slowly clapped his hands.

The mysterious voice also complained.

\'Unbelievable. Wasn\'t he even scared of killing his friends and wives for real?\'

"Your trial is too easy for that guy, Venti. He\'s just… unbelievably decisive."

\'He\'s nuts. I already tried to tell him that the world might be real, but he downright destroyed everyone.\'

Wei Yuan, Jia Shan, White Album, and several women nodded in agreement.

Wei Yuan sighed, "Yeah. He killed me and my grandpa without hesitation. What an asshole."

"But he passed the test easily."

"That\'s Miaomiao for you. He can brainwash others, but no one can brainwash him."

"… That sounds terribly wrong, Jiang Lan."
