Villain Cultivator

Despite the great plan, Mu-Nyang disagreed with Miaomiao.

"What?!"

\'We don\'t need any ally, munya!\'

"But why?! You will be isolated after the reset! Pangu and his cronies will be united, and they will gang on you!"

\'Let me ask you this. Does a supreme expert with an absolute power that can destroy several universes at once need a scheme, munya?\'

"…"

\'Of course not, munya. If we want something, we smash them with brute force, munya! Only the weak use plots and schemes, munya!\'

Miaomiao agreed with Mu-Nyang on this point. However, Mu-Nyang contradicted himself.

"But you were hiding under Virtuous Sage for years. Didn\'t you use plots and schemes as well?"

\'T-That\'s because I was recovering my strength, munya! I was weak, so I needed to scheme, munya!\'

"So… you\'re not weak anymore?"

\'Obviously, munya! I can smash every realm with my trusty paws, munya!\'

That didn\'t sound very threatening.

\'Don\'t believe me, munya? Watch me smash the Sage Realm then, munya!\'

The obnoxious cat cut the communication. Everybody sweated profusely, thinking of what Mu-Nyang would do to the other sages.

Miaomiao wiped his sweat and looked at the Qiongqi cub in his arms. The little guy was trembling in fear.

"Say, little guy."

"Y-Yeah?"

"How about you become my vessel? Be my familiar, and you will get to live in my dantian universe. I have a lot of fish in several of my water-based planets."

"R-Really?"

"You know Liu Guang, right? She has… no, once HAD the Qiongqi bloodline. But now, she\'s a Pestilence Chaos Demon Goddess. You will be safe if you hang out with her."

"C-Chaos Demon Goddess? Pestilence Chaos Demon Goddess?!"

Qiongqi cub widened his eyes. His pupils were so bright and pure that they resembled children\'s.

"But wait. You\'re not even an immortal. Why should I be your familiar?"

"You sure?"

Miaomiao grinned and punched toward the sky. His gold lightning element providence shot out of his fist.

RUMBLE

A beam of gale force and a gold tornado split the dark cloud as if a golden light pillar from Heaven cut a path through the darkness.

The cub stared at the light pillar and trembled in fear.

That was the power of a deity!

"I-I\'m in! I-I\'ll be your loyal servant, Great Lord."

"Good choice! Also, eat this pill so that you can properly join my family."

The cub grabbed the pill and swallowed it without asking what it was. After eating the pill, he innocently looked at Miaomiao\'s face, "What\'s the pill? A poison pill? An oath restriction pill? A grain pill?"

"A fun pill."

"Oh? Fun pill? I like having fun. What is the fun?"

Miaomiao burst into laughter, "You\'ll know it soon enough."

"…"

A few seconds later, the cub sensed something wrong with his body.

His PP was gone.

"NOOOOO! My glorious golden balls! WHYYYYY!?"

Miaomiao coughed and grinned, "It\'s a ritual that every man has to experience at least once. Don\'t worry about the pill effect. As long as you don\'t have sex in that form for a hundred years, you will revert back to your male form. But if you get addicted to the female form, you can contact me anytime so that I can make it permanent."

"NOOOO!! YOU BULLY! YOU TRICKED ME!"

"Anyway. I\'m gentleman enough not to force myself on you. Get in my universe and play with my workers or something to get used to that body."

Miaomiao threw the cub into a portal that he had opened. Then, he trapped the cub inside.

He did this for the cub\'s own good. At least, SHE wouldn\'t be lonely anymore.

Moreover, any male creature was prone to violence. Making the cub into a female cub might decrease its naughtiness and fierceness.

After dealing with the Qiongqi cub, Miaomiao stood up. Even though he hadn\'t met many people or resolved all of his past issues and grudges, Miaomiao decided to stop worrying about them.

He had been postponing his breakthrough long enough. It was time to advance to the 12th-stage.

\'As long as I can get past my mortal realm hurdle, the immortal realm and the deity realm\'s cultivation speed might be instant since I have everything that an average deity has.\'

Miaomiao took several deep breaths and rechecked his physical condition and dantian.

The Yin and Yang balance were a lot better than before after Miaomiao had obtained Samael\'s dantian. However, the negative karma and elements, which related to the negative karma, continued to supply impure Qi in his universe.

In addition, after Diaochan\'s cultivation base was reset because of the Chaos Demon Goddess promotion, all her planets in Miaomiao\'s dantian universe didn\'t vanish. Instead, the ownership was transferred to Miaomiao and ended up becoming his property. Even her Daos were passed to him.

As a result, the balance was still an issue as the former owners could no longer control them. Miaomiao had to do everything himself and wait for the girls to recover their strength and reclaim their former stars.

Without the former owners, Miaomiao\'s consciousness in the dantian universe didn\'t have enough time to either cultivate or make more Chaos Demon Goddess. He ended up sorting and adjusting the balance of his universe all day.

Miaomiao snorted and sorted his universe dantian again. This time, he isolated all negative karma planets, Twilight Qi planets, and Death Qi planets to the corner of the universe. Then, he put all holy and sacred element stars near them to keep their Qi in check.

After the new adjustment, the balance was back, but it was incomplete. About 95% of the universe was stable, but the abandoned planets of his sentinels let out uncontrollable Qi, which harmed his body and dantian.

Miaomiao thought of a way to solve this. Then, he gazed at the Chaos Element Planet of his.

\'How about this?\'

Instead of gathering the troublesome planets to a corner, Miaomiao tossed one of the Chaos Element Planets into the mix and let it absorb rampaging excess energy from negative karma and other types of Qi.

It worked. The Chaos Element Planet worked like an air purifier. It devoured everything and produced Chaos Element Qi, which was compatible with other elements!

\'I should have done this long ago!\'

Miaomiao rechecked his universe again. Now, 100% of his dantian universe was stabilized.

Even though Miaomiao hadn\'t made other girls as his sentinels yet, he decided to tackle the 12th stage right away!

He moved all planets, stars, moons, and planes into sectors with similar elements. Then, he began the work.

Miaomiao pointed at his primary planet with the dryads and dwarves. This was the heart of the entire universe.

Then, Miaomiao pointed at the nearest Chrono Element stellar star.

"Constellation Gate… LINK!"

An energy tunnel appeared between the two planets, and both planets started sharing energy and Qi.

This was the Constellation Meridian, which was needed for the 12th-stage to work.

However, as Miaomiao had absorbed and stole so many dantians from his wives, he needed to form a meridian path to other stars, which might be tedious.

Miaomiao didn\'t bother counting the number of stars in his dantian universe. He only worried about connecting all of them properly like electrical lines from a power plant.

Power generators to the batteries, the batteries to the controllers, the controllers to the distribution units, the distribution units to the community, the community to the households, the households to the electric appliances, Miaomiao mimicked how a modern power plant distributed the electricity to households and villages even though he didn\'t know if it was the right order.

This task reduced the number of constellation meridian pathways. However, it created bottlenecks in various sectors.

Miaomiao groaned. He created a mental image in his mind and planned the structures of his constellation meridians.

But this task might take too long to complete.

\'Should I ask Xie Tian or Xu Chu to help me think? I probably can\'t plan this by myself.\'

Miaomiao sighed. He admitted that he wasn\'t that smart to efficiently come up with complex pipeline structures on his own, so he needed someone with a bigger brain.

His real body opened his eyes and stood up. He looked around to find Xie Tian, but the guy had been cultivating in seclusion.

Miaomiao didn\'t want to disturb him. He went to other seniors instead.

And he chose Metatron, who seemed to be the strongest senior brother. The angel had been playing chess with Joshua.

"Senior, I need help."

Miaomiao simply approached the archangel and asked for help in front of his subordinates and fellow 1st-gen war droids.

Metatron didn\'t put on a disguised form. He revealed his true face and smiled at Miaomiao.

Everybody nearby gazed at the two. They indeed looked like brothers.

"Is there something wrong, Miaomiao?"

"Yes. I\'m about to form Constellation Meridians and break through to the 12th-stage. But you see, I have too many stars inside me, and it won\'t be easy to form pathways and connections to every star. I need help."

Metatron nodded. He closed one of his eyes to pry into Miaomiao\'s dantian universe.

It took Metatron a minute to crack the light barrier array inside Miaomiao\'s dantian. He vaguely saw the universe and many stars inside Miaomiao, but he couldn\'t tell the detail and the power of the stars.

Upon seeing the rough layout of Miaomiao\'s star systems, Metatron shook his head.

It was a mess.

Although several stars emitted similar energy, they were too far from other major elements. Had Miaomiao gotten into a fight and needed to use multiple elements at once, he would have gotten into trouble as it was impossible to merge multiple elements to create a useful providence domain this way.

Metatron decided to correct Miaomiao\'s mistake. First, he needed to know what Miaomiao was thinking.

"Have you created a blueprint of your star systems and universe?"

"… No."

That settled it. Metatron believed that he needed to teach Miaomiao from the beginning.

"I don\'t know the detail and how you planned the star systems, but I\'ll draw an example constellation meridian system for you. Try to use this example of connection pathways as a template. Then, about the power plant stars and others, keep them away from the stars and stars with Dao Pillars that you often use. Although you need Qi from the power plant stars, you can gather them on specific planets like a reserved battery that you frequently used. Also…"

Metatron lost himself in the lecture. He kept talking while Uriel and others brought whiteboards and teaching materials to support Metatron from the side.

Miaomiao opened his mouth and stared at Metatron like how a student listening to his math teacher in class.

An hour later, Metatron took a breather. He turned to Miaomiao.

"Do you get it?"

Miaomiao\'s expression turned into a pokerface, "Not at all. Could you explain everything again?"

"…"

Uriel and the others laughed as they had expected this.

Metatron sighed. He walked toward Miaomiao and poked the latter\'s forehead with his fingertip.

"I should have known and done this earlier. Oh, well. Brace for the flood of knowledge and grit your teeth. You don\'t want to bite your tongue."

WHOOM

Suddenly, images of a million constellation meridian examples entered Miaomiao\'s mind. Metatron\'s previous lecture was also included.

Miaomiao\'s pupils became dull. He entered the state of enlightenment, and nobody could disturb him.

…

Five days later, Miaomiao finally digested all the new memory and came back to his senses. He stood up and saluted at Metatron, "Thank you, brother! I\'ve been enlightened!"

Metatron was satisfied, "Good luck breaking through. Just graduate from the mortal realm already. How long do we have to wait for our youngest brother to become a deity like us?"

Uriel coughed, "We\'re pseudo sages now, though."

Metatron rolled his eyes, "You guys were lucky because you merged with your counterparts. Without them, you would have gotten stuck in the deity realm!"

Uriel sulked while Miaomiao laughed at them. He excused himself and went back to his resting site, which was in the middle of a bamboo forest.

Miaomiao sat down and tried again. His consciousness sank to his dantian.

\'I need to hurry, but the pipeline structure must be efficient. I can\'t rush things.\'

Miaomiao took several deep breaths and meditated.

…

Two months later in the real world, Hopea returned to Miaomiao\'s side as she had recovered her cultivation base, and she managed to reach the nascent soul realm. Moreover, she managed to master the disguise technique and recovered her former appearance of a MILF motherly dryad.

However, Hopea planned to pursue the sentinel path like Miaomiao as she had enough subordinates to be her sentinels. Therefore, so she came to consult with Miaomiao.

However, Hopea couldn\'t approach him.

Something was strange about his air and aura. It was a mixture of black, white, and gold air.

Hopea looked at Ma Xingjuan, who had never left Miaomiao\'s side.

"What happened to him? What is he doing?"

Ma Xingjuan giggled, "12th-stage."

"Oh? Finally?"

RUMBLE

Multiple elements and Dao intersected and entwined around Miaomiao. These energies floated freely, yet they orbited around him as if they knew who their master was.

BOOM

Something exploded or burst, and a light shockwave pushed the orbiting energy away.

"!!!"

Hopea recognized the shockwave. It was similar to the power of Sun Crow and other deities, who used their shockwaves to destroy everything in its path. Although it was mild, Miaomiao\'s shockwave carried the same destructive properties.

Ma Xingjuan pursed her lips. She patted Hopea\'s back, "That happened frequently. He must have completed another star system."

"???"

"Just wait here and observe him for a while. Then, you\'ll understand."

"…"

BOOM

Again, Miaomiao\'s body generated another shockwave. However, a more colorful aura came out from his pores and mixed with the other white, black, and gold aura.

BOOM

BOOM

Hopea gasped for air. The longer she watched Miaomiao, the more she felt like Miaomiao was about to do something that no cultivator could do.

"Why does it feel that he will become a sage after he completes his constellation meridians?"

Joshua, Metatron, and archangels had been hovering over the bamboo forest, observing Miaomiao as well. They overheard Hopea\'s remark and snickered.

"Little dryad. Don\'t worry. After this, he will definitely step into an immortal realm first. As for his true strength, well…"

All archangels smirked. Even Joshua laughed.

Everybody came to one conclusion.

Miaomiao might be able to kill sages as an immortal!

Rather, Miaomiao\'s cultivation base might even directly jump from the mortal realm to the sage realm after his graduation!
