Villain Cultivator (Web Novel)

Chapter 306 – A Way to Defeat the Lich?

"LET ME GO, YOU PERVERTED FREAK! I CAN FLY! AND FOR FUCK SAKE, STOP TOUCHING MY BUTT!!"

An invisible man had been carrying the young emperor under his left arm and carrying the dwarf succubus over his right shoulder. However, his wing tentacles had already stripped her clothes, and they licked Luo Song's slit and round smooth butt as if they had been creamed with Nutella.

"Don't worry girly. I don't violate underage girls... unless you want it."

"WHO WANTS TO BE VIOLATED BY YOU!? LET ME DOWN ALREADY!!"

"Shush! Lower your voice! I didn't carry you out here to pop your cherry. I brought you here, so you can escape!"

Miaomiao revealed himself and placed both Liu Xie and Luo Song down inside a cave at the west mountain range. Then, he pointed at the center of the low land.

"Recuperate here for now. The exit portal is over there. When you're ready, bring him out and tell the world what happened here."

Luo Song's face changed. She gazed at Miaomiao, "What about you?"

"I have to rescue the others."

"There's an 8th-stage undead lich, you know? You're gonna be killed!"

"Even so, I have to be there soon. Well, remember my words, recuperate first, and get the fuck outta here ASAP!" Miaomiao had a bitter smile on his face. He tossed an essence core and a bottle of unified element spring water to Luo Song before he flew away, heading toward the destroyed southern area.

Luo Song gazed at the departing pervert. Then, she muttered, "I... don't have spare clothes in my spatial ring."

At the moment, Luo Song was butt naked. She wondered how she could do when she got back to the city.

"AAHHH!! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DESTROY MY CLOTHES, YOU JERK!!"

...

A few minutes earlier, by the time that Miaomiao reached the south battlefield, the lich had activated the darkness domain and destroyed the floating continent.

Miaomiao, in his stealth mode, lurked behind the southwest mountain range, observing the battle to understand the general situation first. Then, he discovered Luo Song, who managed to grab Liu Xie and flew away from the explosion site.

Luo Song was critically injured. Her intestines were dangling, slipping out from her deep stomach wounds. Yet, she shoved them back while she carried Liu Xie to a safe place without uttering a word.

Miaomiao admired her patience, endurance, and willpower. He sneaked to them and poured unified element spring water, which he had collected from the treasure grail at Siren City, to Luo Song and Liu Xie. Then, he dragged them away from the battlefield without alerting the death knights in the sky.

And now, Miaomiao had successfully saved the two. It was the time for him to return to the battlefield and save the others.

However, Miaomiao wasn't stupid enough to jump into the fray without a plan. The opponent was an 8th-stage undead lich, who seemed to be controlling the army of 7th-stage death knights.

Fighting them head-on was not the right choice!

Miaomiao glanced at his system inventory menu, checking the P2W items in his arsenal.

Two Light Element Spell Talismans

Three Domain Sealing Talismans

Three OG-Buddha's Blessing Talismans

One Random Teleportation Talisman

Domain Sealing Talismans might be useful against the death knights, but Miaomiao wasn't sure if it would work against the lich. However, the light element spells might be the bane of undead, judging from the undead and the light element characteristics.

Even so, Miaomiao disliked gambling in this situation. He needed assurance.

His sight fixated at the blessing talismans, wondering if they could give him a boost or help him in this situation.

'Will these talismans help?'

Miaomiao bit his lower lips, hesitated. Then, he took one from his system inventory and tore it to test its effect.

As soon as Miaomiao tore the talisman, a bubble of light appeared and entered his chest.

Ding

<You have used the Holy Talisman of Growth Blessing.>

<You have obtained 500 luck points.>

<You have received 10,000 strands of light element Qi. The Qi shall be stored in your secondary dantian space.>

<Your light element attacks are 50 % stronger for 10 minutes.>

<Your shadow element resistance is increased by 50 % for 10 minutes.>

<Your death element resistance is increased by 50 % For 10 minutes.>

"... That's it?"

Miaomiao was dissatisfied.

Miaomiao had concerns. As the lich was too strong, he might only have one chance to kill it. If he were to fail, the lich would be on guard against him, and there would be no second chance.

As such, a 50 percent increase in his base firepower wouldn't be enough to kill the lich in one strike.

If the lich's overall strength point was 1,000, Miaomiao's strength would be somewhere below 100. Even after adding 50% of 100 to his strength, his overall power would still be less than 1,000.

Therefore, it wasn't enough!

As reckless as he was, Miaomiao tore the second blessing talisman, praying that the blessing effect could stack.

Ding

...

BOOM

Ju Shoufen's poison fire melted two of the death knights in front of her. Behind the loli grandma, Ma Ping and Wang Yun fended off the endless horde of the skeleton knights, killing one of them at a time.

However, for every death knight they killed, shallow wounds on their bodies increased as they had to trade blows to kill one.

The three elders were surrounded and being attacked from all sides. Their domain powers were suppressed, and they were about to run out of Qi.

"SCRAM!!"

BOOM

As the three were about to be pierced by hundreds of death knight's lances and spears, a soul sword was swung down, and its energy cleaved a dozen death knights, creating a gap in their formation.

Ju Shoufen, Ma Ping, and Wang Yun immediately broke through from the encirclement. They regrouped with Jia Shan and caught their breath.

Ju Shoufen ate her last essence restoration pill and drank the unified element spring water, which she had gotten from Siren City. As for Ma Ping, he only had the spring water left to restore his stamina and heal superficial wounds.

On the other hand, Wang Yun didn't need healing items. As he fought the death knights, he kept stealing their weapons, bones, and spiritual cores with his shadow ability. Mysteriously, every death knight he killed, he recovered his essence energy. As for his wounds, all he needed was a minute of Qi circulation, then, all his injuries were gone.

Wang Yun had many secrets, but nobody cared at this point. Having him as an ally in this situation was good enough.

Meanwhile, Jia Shan was still in a good shape as he had been using Miaomiao's soul sword. He solely relied on his battle sense and maimed the death knights with ease. Whenever he was tired, he drank the OP and brokenly haxxor spring water. Then, he could continue fighting.

Three minutes had passed after Ma Moxi had attempted to assassinate Liu Bian. The group of elders had downed a hundred more knights.

They stared at the remaining 600 death knights in the sky. After they had broken out of the encirclement, they already recovered their formation and detached into several groups, flanking them once more.

At this rate, they would be surrounded again.

RUMBLE

At a distance, Ma Moxi was keeping the Lich at bay. The annoying 8th-stage undead lord activated its darkness domain and focused its attention on the protagonist, using the darkness to blind Ma Moxi.

Ma Moxi also did his best. Utilizing his battle sense, gold element Qi's buff, and the five basic elements Qi, he parried barrage after barrage of dark spear rain within the domain. During these three minutes, he managed to slip his attack and graze the lich's arm twice, turning a tiny fragment of them into gold and slowly expanding.

Still, Ma Moxi was at his limit. Even though he might be able to 1v1 against the lich, he was still an early-stage 5th-stage cultivator, who had just broken through a few days ago.

His combat prowess was still no match against someone with three big realms stronger than him.

BOOM

Again, the lich knocked Ma Moxi with the energy hammer, crushing his left shoulder bones, left arm, and cracked his left ribcages. Even the golden dragon scales and the golden azure dragon physique couldn't protect him against the raw power of the dao soul's physique.

The lich chased after Ma Moxi, who was flung away by the hammer. It waved its hammer again, trying to follow up with the finishing blow.

WHOOSH

A dagger suddenly entered the darkness domain and pierced the right glowing eye of the lich. The light dimmed for a moment before it regenerated.

The lich pulled out the dagger and tossed it back at the thrower, Lu Fengxian, whom Hua Xiong had been piggybacking.

Hua Xiong tilted his body to dodge the dagger, but Lu Fengxian caught it with his hand.

The ex-immortal nonchalantly ordered, "General, move closer to the domain. Get to the border if you can."

Hua Xiong broke a sweat, "We're already 20 paces away from the domain! If you go further, we'll be in that thing!"

"Without getting closer, I can't aim properly. Just now, I was planning to hit two eyes at once, but one of them missed."

"You only threw one knife, though."

"It was supposed to ricochet inside that lich's skull and pierce another one. My aim is off by half a fingertip."

"..."

Hua Xiong had a thousand words that he wanted to retort out loud, but he gave up bickering with this unreasonable youth.

"What about the crazy bastard you talked about? When will he come to help us?"

"Ha! He already helped us. He took the girl and that boy emperor away."

"Hah!? That's it!?"

Lu Fengxian snickered, "What else can he do? He's a lowly 4th-stage cultivator. Do you think he can simply come here and pick a fight with a death knight or that fucking monster?"

"... Probably not."

"That guy is there to pick up our corpses home so that we won't be turned into one of those monsters. We'd better be grateful for his effort. At least, we'll get to enjoy our funeral back home."

Hua Xiong wanted to cry. From Lu Fengxian's tone, he already gave up his fate and his life. That meant, none of them could survive today.

"Ah! Screw it! I'll just stalk at the border then!"

Hua Xiong stopped throwing tantrums and followed Lu Fengxian's instruction word by word. He flew closer to the dark domain's edge, stalking the lich as instructed.

"Good, and now..."

As Lu Fengxian was commanding Hua Xiong and looking for an opportunity to strike again, he sensed Miaomiao's presence getting closer.

As the master of the apostle, Lu Fengxian could tell where Miaomiao was regardless of the latter's stealth ability. He could even gauge the amount of Qi, Essence, and Luck that Miaomiao had inside him.

Lu Fengxian widened his eyes in astonishment when he sensed the amount of Luck within Miaomiao's hidden 13th meridian. It might not have been awakened properly yet, but it contained a lot of Luck energy comparing to two pieces of Heavenly Fate Fragment.

Moreover, the Light Element Qi in his dantian was odd. It seemed... familiar.

'That dao signature... OG-Buddha? Wait, he used that ogre's talisman before! Does he have more of them!? Is that why he has that guy's Qi?'

Lu Fengxian squinted his eyes and read Miaomiao's mind. Then, the corner of his mouth curved up.

The invisible man crept closer to the dark domain. He also stopped at the edge of the dome for a moment before he decided to take a detour and stood next to Hua Xiong.

Miaomiao then whispered to Lu Fengxian, "Master, can you share your vision? I can't see that monster from here. I have two light spell talismans right here."

"Oh?" Lu Fengxian almost burst into laughter. He had already read Miaomiao's mind and understood what his apostle had been planning.

But instead of giving Miaomiao his vision, he ordered Hua Xiong, "General."

"Yeah?"

"Transfer all your Qi and elemental Qi to my disciple over here."

"What? Transfer to who!?" Hua Xiong didn't see anyone.

"Over here."

"I see nobody, though."

Lu Fengxian grabbed Hua Xiong's hand and placed it on Miaomiao's back.

"Here!"

Hua Xiong almost jumped away in shock, "WHAT!? HOW!?"

"Stop asking unnecessary questions and do it. This is our only hope to survive."

"But what my cultivation base..."

"Why do you care about it when you can simply recover your Qi and Essence after resting a few months? Why are you even hesitating? Are you prefer dying here or sleeping at home idly for a few months? Make your choice."

"..."

Hua Xiong wanted to cry for real. Since he couldn't survive alone with all the death knights flying around, he took another gamble.

"Okay."

"Good. Make sure you transfer everything since we need every strand of Qi. As for you, Miaomiao, make sure you absorb everything and try to convert them into light element Qi."

Miaomiao in his invisible form stared at Lu Fengxian's face, confused, "I haven't comprehended the light element yet. Also, is that earth element Qi I'm sensing!? I don't even have the earth element core! How am I going to convert them into light element!?"

Lu Fengxian rolled his eyes, doubting Miaomiao's wits, "You haven't, even once, tried to read my mind at all? You could have easily learned so many tricks and tips in forming elemental crystals and essence seas, including element conversion!"

"Uh, I can read your mind and memory? Really!?"

"Close your damn eyes and try to feel the connection between us. Then, you'll be able to read my mind, my past, and even my memory if you pay attention enough! Normally, I wouldn't have allowed it, but this is an exception! Do you know how many people are willing to sacrifice their limbs and their daughters to learn one of my supreme techniques!? Just... ugh, follow my instructions and learn the ability I tell you."

Lu Fengxian facepalmed and groaned, wondering if he had picked the right apostle. Miaomiao seemed to be talented and smart, but he lacked wits.

Meanwhile, Miaomiao had a smug smile on his face. He glanced at the recent system notifications, which reported the talisman effects.
