Villain Cultivator (Web Novel)
chapter-256

As soon as Killer Queen had entered Kzarka's domain, she directed all dragon fire to herself.

Like a black hole, she sucked the surrounding dragon fire and random energy, except for Zhao Bao's dao soul force. Unlike the usual, she ate everything to protect Zhao Bao per her master's order.

Zhao Bao's soul grinned as he appreciated the protection. He focused on forming his soul dantian with everything he had prepared, so he could finish this process as soon as possible. He also sent a gesture to Jia Shan and Ma Ping, telling them to finish off Kzarka while they could.

Jia Shan and Ma Ping nodded. They rushed toward the orc.

Meanwhile, Kzarka paid attention to KQ's abnormal suction force. He hesitated if he should attack her.

However, after seeing how his power got absorbed by a mere heaven-grade katana, Kzarka was infuriated. He charged at Killer Queen, planning to punch it and break it to pieces.

However, he had been ignoring a looming threat, which came in the form of a skull-faced tank toy.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

The toy latched onto the orc's back. Then, it crept on his body with its tank treads.

Being annoyed by the creeping sensation, Kzarka waved his hand without looking, planning to swat the unknown object away.

Then, he heard a clicking noise.

Click

BOOM!

The toy detonated!

The power of the explosion took off a chunk of Kzarka's flesh and fat under his thick layer of skin, revealing the red muscle and his spine.

However, the wound was shallow since his giant body was too thick!

"Damn coward yellow monkeys! Once I'm done with this virgin, I'll fucking kill you all!"

Kzarka roared and regenerated his lost flesh back. All wounds, caused by Jia Shan and Ma Ping, were also instantly healed.

But he didn't notice that a certain tank toy still latched onto his back after the explosion. It only took a couple of seconds to refuel and recharge.

The tank kept trying to reach for Kzarka's head. As it was impossible to kill a 5-meter-tall orc with a stronger cultivation base in one or two explosions, it went for the most vital part of the body – The head.

Unfortunately, this little tank had a trolling trait, which warned Kzarka about its presence.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

"This stupid thing again!?"

Kzarka's big fingers pulled off the tank from his back. Then, he squeezed it with his hand.

However, the toy was too durable. Kzarka couldn't crush it in his hands.

As such, he used both hands to break it.

But that was another mistake.

Click

BOOM!

Again, it detonated. This time, it blew Kzarka's fingertips, leaving behind 10 shortened fingers.

Yet, the tank was still there. It slipped out of Kzarka's hands and flew toward his face.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

Instead of being panicked, Kzarka calmly snorted, "I see. I sensed something in the explosion. So, it's just a simple trick with a few strands of fire element Qi as fuel."

Kzarka glared at the oncoming tank and reset his domain power. He dispelled the previous domain and created a new one, forming a red barrier with a radius of 100-meters around himself.

As soon as Kzarka changed his domain pattern, the tank was repelled by the domain. It suddenly got knocked away because of the restricted barrier.

The tank stabilized itself in mid-air. Then, it charged back at Kzarka.

But it couldn't enter the range of 100 meters as something had blocked it from getting closer.

"This is how you deal with an indestructible artifact. I don't know who sent it, I have to admit that you have a nice idea. I'll be incorporating it with my skill after this!"

As Kzarka was distracted by the toy and Killer Queen, Jia Shan and Ma Ping managed to catch up. They expanded their range, trying to reach Kzarka.

However, their domain power couldn't push back Kzarka's 100-meter red dome. Even if Jia Shan and Ma Ping were to launch their domain attacks now, it wouldn't reach the orc.

Kzarka now focused on his defense. Instead of using his domain as an offensive skill, he turned them into an absolute barrier, preventing other domains from reaching him, including the toy tank.

"Ha! I admit that I lost my cool a little. Well, now that nobody can harm me, it's time to die, virgin!"

The orc laughed and approached KQ and Zhao Bao, planning to destroy them together.

BOOM!

Cao Mao's tank detonated again, trying to break the domain barrier. Unfortunately, it couldn't even put a dent on it.

This was due to Kzarka's dragon fire curse, which was equal to an advanced fire element. It was a higher form of fire element Qi. Therefore, KQ's ability was rendered useless.

[Come back, SHA!]

Since the toy was useless, Sheer Heart Attack, aka SHA, returned to KQ and transformed into a scabbard. It floated next to her, standing by for a new order.

Ma Ping also launched his strongest attack. His nascent soul, the knight in shining armor and a lance, galloped the spiritual horse and charged at Kzarka.

CLANK

Yet, the lance couldn't penetrate the red domain barrier.

"GET BACK, SENIOR MA!!"

Jia Shan roared as he raised his sword over his head, getting into an overhead-downward slashing stance. His new dao avatar appeared behind his back, showing the appearance of a metal goose with a turtle shell on its back and a long sword in its mouth. Its triangle sunglass also stood out as it resembled a certain protagonist who always claimed that he would 'Fight the Power' or 'Pierce the Heaven with his Drill'.

"MOUNTAIN GOOSE SLASH!!"

Like a modern adult with the 9th-grade syndrome, Jia Shan shouted the name of his skill and slashed downward. The illusion of the metal goose also swung its long sword down with its beak.

Kzarka's face changed. Despite seeing the cute appearance of the goose with a butter knife, he felt the dao of slashing within the skill.

"URAAH!!"

The orc roared and threw a punch toward Jia Shan's direction. An illusion of a fire fist flew toward the sword saint, counterattacking against the slash.

SWUA!

BOOM!

The two attacks bypassed each other, heading for their targets!

The slash of Jia Shan severed Kzarka's right arm, which had just thrown a punch!

The fire fist also hit Jia Shan's chest and exploded! As if he was hit by a small nuke, the explosion created a shockwave and a mushroom cloud. Even the tribulation cloud dispersed from the shockwave.

Meanwhile, Ma Ping deeply inhaled, mustering his power and his dao of a horseman. He didn't even glance at Jia Shan whether he survived the attack as he prepared for another decisive skill. His dao avatar switched his weapon from a lance to a giant drill, which started spinning.

"One Thrust!!"

Ma Ping also declared the name of his attack before he sent it toward Kzarka. The illusion knight behind Ma Ping threw the drill like a javelin toward the orc.

The orc also roared. He threw a left straight and sent another fire fist toward Ma Ping.

SWUA!

BOOM!

Both of them traded their blows. The fire fist hit Ma Ping's chest and exploded, creating another massive mushroom cloud.

However, a giant hole appeared on Kzarka's left shoulder, which torn the left arm.

Now, the orc had lost two arms!

Jia Shan and Ma Ping fell from the black smoke, which was the remaining of the explosion. Both nascent soul experts had a third-degree burn all over their bodies, but they calmly ate a healing pill and focused on self-healing.

Meanwhile, Kzarka regenerated both his lost arms. His white bone and muscle fibers were instantly healed, but the skin and blood vessels took time to restore.

The orc disregarded the two experts. He turned around, planning to interfere with Zhao Bao's breakthrough process and kill him.

But another young man suddenly appeared and hovered before the orc. He touched the domain barrier and stared into the orc's eyes in solemn.

Kzarka was taken aback for a second since the young man was a weak 4th-stage cultivator, who didn't belong in the battlefield between several nascent soul realm experts.

Kzarka frowned and stared at the insignificant being. He snorted as he manipulated his dragon fire Qi, creating another fireball with his spit.

A fireball hit Cao Mao's face and exploded.

…

"BRAT!"

"MIAOMIAO!!"

The elders in the city were shocked when the explosion and the fire devoured Cao Mao. Yet, the yin slaves only rubbed their yin slave rings to confirm the status of their husband.

When they had realized that Cao Mao was still alive, they relayed the news. Ma Xingjuan went to Ma Shoucheng and Pang Lingming to calm them down while Ju Shoufen refrained Jia Wenhe from going out.

Everyone said the same sentences, "It's fine. He's still alive."

Wei Yuan, who didn't have the yin slave ring, looked at Ju Chen, "How is Miaomiao?"

Ju Chen's face was expressionless. She reported to Wei Yuan while she paid attention to the fight, "I can sense that his Qi is increasing. He's draining that orc's fire Qi at the moment."

Ju Chen could sense Cao Mao's blood and his warmth from afar since she was a vampire. Moreover, the activation of the Vampiric Touch technique confirmed that Cao Mao had a plan.

She was confident that her husband could deal with the orc since he suddenly flew out of the safe zone to join the battle with confidence.

"If you say so… But hey, tell me what he's doing? Can you see everything from here?" Wei Yuan wanted to use Ju Chen as a commentator since she couldn't see every detail in the fight.

Ju Chen nodded, "Yes, I can. Right now, Miaomiao is using Vampiric Touch, and I sense Fire Qi in his blood…"

…

After Cao Mao had placed his palms on the surface of Kzarka's domain barrier, he slowly inhaled and muttered to himself.

"Here goes nothing… Vampiric Touch!"

The dragon fire curse, which had gathered around Kzarka, started flowing into Cao Mao's hands.

Ding

[Dragon Fire is trying to burn you.]

[You are immune to Dragon Fire. You have received no damage.]

[Dragon Fire Curse is trying to burn your Qi.]

[Your Incomplete Asmodeus Bloodline contains a tinge of Fire Dragon Bloodline. The curse is ineffective against the parent bloodline.]

[You have collected 90 strands of Dragon Fire Element Qi.]

[You have collected 210 strands of Dragon Fire Element Qi.]

[You have collected 630 strands of Dragon Fire Element Qi.]

[Your Fire Element Crystal can't handle anymore Dragon Fire Element Qi. All excess Qi will be converted to Life Essence.]

The system messages spammed Cao Mao's notification panels as he continued to drain Kzarka's energy.

At the same time, Kzarka sent him a fire spit.

BOOM!

After the fire spit exploded on his face, more notifications showed up.

Ding

[You are immune to Dragon Fire.]

[You are immune to Fire Element Qi.]

[You have collected 2,100 strands of Dragon Fire Element Qi.]

"What the heck? It's kinda lukewarm."

The explosion didn't harm him. Instead, it increased his Dragon Fire Qi.

Cao Mao grinned. He hid in the black smoke and focused on collecting more energy to his dantian, giving them to the fire element crystal.

[Hey, trashy master! Don't hog all the Qi to yourself! Give me some of them too!]

The high-pitched voice of KQ annoyed Cao Mao, 'If you want it that badly, come and get it yourself. Why are you still hovering in front of Zhao Bao?'

[What!? I can't believe that you're ignoring your ally. Don't you know that this monk will die if someone even gives him a slight poke? I'm staying here to protect him.]

'That's surprising. You're quite considerate for a glutton weapon.'

[Wrong! I'm keeping him alive, so I can leech his Dao Soul's energy when he becomes a dao soul cultivator! This is called "Investment". I'll be sure to collect a lot of interest after this! HYAHAHAHA!]

Cao Mao broke a sweat. This obnoxious loli spirit in the katana seemed to be getting smarter every day. Though, most of the time, she always acted like a silly child.

While Cao Mao and KQ had been chatting, Kzarka complained, "How long are you going to latch on my domain barrier, you yellow monkey leech!?"

As Cao Mao had been sidetracked for too long, he didn't notice that Kzarka had already noticed him. The orc had also regenerated back his arms, and he threw a right punch from a distance.

The fire fist, which was capable of injuring Ma Ping and Jia Shan, directly hit Cao Mao's chest!

BOOM!

Another explosion occurred. Yet, none of the shockwaves and heat managed to reach Zhao Bao. The floating katana before him acted as a black-hole shield, absorbing any leftover Qi and kinetic forces to herself.

Kzarka thought that the annoying leech had been dealt with. He gazed at the sentient weapon and the giant soul of Zhao Bao.

However, the orc could still feel the abnormal flow of his dragon fire Qi. He kept losing them.

"Hmm?"

Black smoke dispersed and showed the unharmed body of Cao Mao. The latter had been chewing a carrot like a rabbit while his right palm was stuck on the surface of Kzarka's Dragon Fire domain barrier.

Cao Mao mimicked Bugs Bunny's voice, "Ehh, what's up, doc?"

"…"

Kzarka sent another fire fist at Cao Mao. The latter ignored it and let it explode on his face again.

BOOM!

The smoke dispersed, showing the annoying smile of Cao Mao.

Kzarka finally noticed the anomaly. This little cultivator seemed to be immune to his dragon fire curse.

"I see. So, you're immune to explosions. Then, how about this!?"

Kzarka let Cao Mao slip into his domain, after that, he reinforced the barrier.

Now, Cao Mao was trapped inside the domain!

"Let's see how you survive being burnt in my domain!"

Kzarka increased his dragon fire temperature. From 50,000 degrees Celsius, it increased to 200,000 degrees.

Then, a strange thing happened. The fire didn't burn Cao Mao. Instead, it entered his body as if it was a vacuum.

Moreover, Cao Mao's cultivation base sharply increased. It jumped from the middle-stage to the late-stage of the essence gathering realm.

His Essence River turned into an Essence Sea!

Yet, Cao Mao still demanded more. He took out a tea table and poured hollowed spring water into a cup with tea leaves. However, they were burnt to ashes in an instant.

Cao Mao gazed at the burnt tea table and his broken teacup with a pokerface. Then, he drank the air tea.

"This is fine."

[This is NOT fine! This is not the time to play around or mimic a meme, master! You're hogging all the good stuff! Where is my Qi!?]

KQ sobbed as she floated in front of Zhao Bao.
