Chapter 377 Cat Dad Made A Vow

Chapter 377 – Cat Dad Made a Vow

After reaching the limit of the mortal stage, Xiaomao didn't stop cultivating. He drew more providence Qi from the hydra's heart, strengthening his newly created element continents and the Chaos Star Core.

The process was dangerous as Xiaomao got injured every time a strand of providence Qi enter his dantian. After completing one circulation, Xiaomao had to rest and healed his internal wounds.

However, the trick was worth it. His attributes doubled, and his elemental stats surpassed a million.

In his pocket dantian, a black hole detached from all elemental continents. It floated higher into the sky until it gained enough distance from the local planet.

RUMBLE

The black hole slowly gained color. Brown dirt, rocks, minerals, and waste from the providence Qi piled around the black round core because of the extreme gravity. All solid materials were burnt and melted into sticky substances while Qi and energy source fueled the magnetic field around the core.

Six hours later in the real world, aka one year in the pocket dantian, the chaos element core became a miniature white sun. The extreme gravity produced high temperatures and engulfed every material and Qi in flame.

The expansion of the new sun didn't stop there. As Xiaomao kept eating more providence Qi, the sun used it to grow while the leftover energy became the food for the inferior element continents.

As the sun grew larger, the dantian was strengthened. And when the dantian solidified, Xiaomao's physique's durability was enhanced. After 12 hours of torturous Qi circulations, Xiaomao no longer got injured after consuming a strand of providence Qi.

Realizing that he could consume Qi without getting injured, Xiaomao accelerated his progress. He drew more than two strands of Providence Qi at once.

As usual, the chaos sun only took in one strand of providence Qi at a time. As for another strand, the element continents split the cake and devoured it.

The dantian world trembled. Five element continents slowly detached from the planet and levitated in the sky. The Dao Avatars returned to their continents and became one with them. Afterward, each continent compressed, trying to give birth to an element core as well.

As all element continents detached from the primary dantian world, the world became an empty grassland again, ready to recreate new life essence seas, element foundations, and elemental continents.

'The secret of stellar constellation immortals are stars in their dantians. I need to make as many stars in my dantian to strengthen my foundation. Once I have at least 100 stars or so, I can ascend!'

In Mimir's bibles, Xiaomao only needed one new star as a foundation for his immortal realm ascension. However, from Wei Huang's memory, he recommended Xiaomao construct at least 100 stars before the ascension ritual. He didn't have to create 100 different element stars as some of them could be duplicated, serving as a backup energy source for the specialized element.

Xiaomao had a wild ambition. As Chaos Element sounded unique, he planned to make at least 20 chaos stars or so by creating and combining eight basic element continents 20 times.

While Xiaomao focused on digesting more providence Qi, his Senpai gave another piece of advice.

[Foresight]: "100 stars will not be enough for your first constellation. You have one day left to make at least 777 stars. Then, you must use the seven evolution materials to evolve your game physique into a Cathulhu. Only then, you can survive this ordeal."

"I'll try my best, munya!"

Xiaomao absorbed more energy from the heart. This time, he digested a dozen strands of Qi at once!

As more elemental cores were born, the dantian rapidly evolved and reinforced his external physique, which allowed Xiaomao to absorb more providence Qi at once.

The loop repeated. Without the need to recover from internal injuries, Xiaomao sped up his Qi circulation.

All 20 elements that Xiaomao previously had – Chaos, Fire, Water, Wind, Wood, Lightning, Metal, Light, Dark, Holy, Unholy, Ice, Sword, Nature, Magnetic, Compression, Nihility Flame, Venom, Blood, and Sigma Element all turned into stars. Each star turned into a new container to store more element essence, waiting for Xiaomao to extract them.

The stars didn't only affect Xiaomao's Qi volume, but they also enhanced Xiaomao's tentacle wings. Because every feather mimicked the quality and the Qi volume of Xiaomao's dantian, they began storing and producing element essence to match it.

As the wings reacted, the butterflies within the feathers also came out.

100,000 white feathers and 100,000 black feathers were originally the nests of mysterious butterflies, which were born from elemental essence inside the universes within the feathers. Xiaomao had no idea where they came from. But by the time Xiaomao realized it, the pocket dantians within the feathers were infested with these creatures.

The butterflies didn't harm Xiaomao. Instead, they always sacrificed themselves to transform into aura weapons, armor, shields, or energy source for Xiaomao to complete a grand spell or a technique.

After the feathers mimicked the stars, the butterflies began changing colors. Some turned into rainbow butterflies while many turned dark because of the mix of elements. However, all butterflies that came out from white feathers changed to a bright color tone while the majority remained the same.

Because of the butterflies, the requirement for new stars increased. Xiaomao soon absorbed all energy from the hydra's heart to the last drop.

The providence Qi within Xiaomao broke down into element essence. They turned into liquid and filled the stars. After the last providence Qi was digested, Xiaomao ended up with five chaos stars and 95 combined stars of 19 elements.

Although Xiaomao succeeded in getting 100 stars, which was the prerequisite for immortal ascension, Xiaomao was unsatisfied. He needed more.

Without the source of providence Qi, Xiaomao began absorbing every crystal and cultivation resource in his spatial rings.

.

.

"It's not enough, munya."

Xiaomao grumbled. It had been three hours since Xiaomao got his first 100 stars, but he could not create another one with his current cultivation resources. He ran out of essence cores, elemental fruits, and elemental crystals to use.

As Xiaomao had no other choice, he shifted his attention toward the clones. He hesitated for a moment before he sank his consciousness to the pocket dantian.

When Xiaomao saw the grassland and the starry sky, he was taken aback. He could no longer call this place a "Pocket" dantian anymore.

It was a dantian universe!

Although the dark void was endless, Xiaomao could sense the ceilings of his dantian. It was massive enough to store the entire Milky Way galaxy in here!

VRRRRRR

While Xiaomao admired the dark void and the 100 colorful suns, a white butterfly manifested from the grassland. It approach Xiaomao and orbited around him as if it wanted to tell him something.

Xiaomao reached out and let the butterfly rest on his hand. He gazed at it.

It had the emoji cat face instead of a regular butterfly head.

"Munya?"

Moreover, it MUNYAed!

Xiaomao giggled. He gently patted its head, "How the hell did you get here? What are you exactly?"

"Munya!"

The butterfly dissipated into small particles and condensed into a strand of providence Qi!

"WHAT?!"

Xiaomao was shocked. He opened his palm and gazed at the string of Qi, which pulsed and exuded a domineering aura of Holy Element inside. However, the thread didn't let Xiaomao watch it for long. It sank into his palms and merged with him.

BADUMP

Xiaomao clenched his chest as if a thousand needles stabbed into his heart. He fell to his knees and panted. Sweat drops seeped from his pores and soon drenched him.

RUMBLE

Particles of light emerged from the grassland and floated toward the space. They gradually merged in the sky and formed a cloud at first. Afterward, the clouds condensed into a small white orb and expanded by devouring the flying particles.

Xiaomao remembered it well. That was how a Holy Element Continent evolved into Holy Star.

While Xiaomao was confused and flabbergasted, thousands of white butterflies submerged from the grassland. They meowed and surrounded Xiaomao.

"Munya!"

"Munya!"

Xiaomao sensed something odd. He returned his consciousness to his real body. Then, he discovered the cause.

The mysterious butterflies that had been living in the feathers overflowed. These creatures multiplied too fast, and they migrated into his real dantian universe instead of living in the outside world.

As Xiaomao was about to stop them, his Senpai gave him another piece of advice.

[Cathulhu Instinct]: "Let them."

[Foresight]: "Yes. Let them do their jobs. They mean no harm."

"Senpai, what are they, munya? I know that they're born from my mutated tentacles and Dao, but what are they doing?"

[Cathulhu Instinct]: "Those are spirits of chaos element. They are born from the collection of your good karma and negative karma."

"Chaos Element, munya? What is Chaos Element anyway?"

Foresight and Instinct Senpai didn't answer. However, one of the black butterflies hovered in front of his face and patted his nose with its tiny leg.

"Munya!"

Again, it dissipated into particles like the previous white butterfly. The black dust entered his nostrils and made its way to his brain.

As soon as the particles reached his brain, a flood of new knowledge entered his mind.

From Xiaomao's point of view, he went through a series of 4D documentary films and got stuck there for centuries. He watched how the universe was created from nothingness to the beginning of life. Then, intelligent creatures evolved, created civilizations, and pursued immortality to overcome fate. Afterward, a mortal successfully surpassed the limits of lifespan and attained Dao.

Fortunately, the documentary films ended after the birth of the first immortal. Otherwise, Xiaomao would have forgotten his identity.

Only five minutes passed in the real world. However, for Xiaomao, it felt like five million years.

When Xiaomao came back to his senses, he forgot how to control his vocal cord, sit, or stand properly. He fell to the floor and looked around in confusion.

"Ah? Err. Eh?"

Like a confused half-awake man that had woken up from a long sweet dream, Xiaomao's mind was blank at first. A few seconds later, the memory of his mortal life came back, and his muscle memory took over.

"Ah, right. It was the memory thingy."

Xiaomao slowly exhaled while the butterflies flooded into his dantian universe. He sat up and held his hands in prayer, praying for the sacrifices of the butterflies.

He understood everything now. These chaos spirits were born from his Dao, and their life's purpose was to construct and expand his dantian universe.

They were innocent creatures. They simply wished to repay Xiaomao's kindness for creating them and giving them a place to live in for a short while by turning themselves into energy sources for Xiaomao to use!

Xiaomao shed tears of gratitude. He made a vow.

"I swear by my name. One day, I'll create a universe for you all so that you don't have to sacrifice yourself for my sake! I'll become a god for you to rely on!"

The butterflies heard that, but they didn't understand human speech. They meowed and self-detonated, feeding Xiaomao with their providence Qi.

.

"…"

Hongjun stared down at the bloody goddess and the two giant monsters on top of the open ocean. His dark aura ceaselessly expanded and suppressed all mandate domains of Meowmeow, Madoka, and Ma Xingjuan.

Zhunti Sage sneered at the injured opponents. He glanced at the carnage on Cernun Island and laughed.

"All blood fairies are dead."

All-Heaven Sage turned toward the south and looked at how his troops rushed into the Slave Dungeon after all resisting forces were annihilated. No nomad immortals remained alive.

"It's over for the desert's thieves too. We won."

Hongjun shook his head and fixed his sight on Meowmeow, who had lost half of his proud tentacles. The massive Cathulhu's states were as pitiful as a kitten that had just gotten run over by a car.

"Aside from these fools, we still have Mao Miaomiao and his wives to deal with. Chang'e hasn't come down, and Mao Miaomiao hasn't shown up yet."

"Master, are you overestimating them? We have the antagonist class. We can't be killed unless they are protagonists. We're basically invincible."

Hongjun turned around and glared at Zhunti, "Never let your guard down no matter what. Now, go down there and finish them off before Mao Miaomiao or any protagonist show up to rescue-"

Before Hongjun could finish his sentences, he sensed a terrifying pressure from the depth of the dungeon. It was holy, innocent, and pure, but it was mixed with sadness and determination.

Hongjun was perplexed. The aura had a scent of Mao Miaomiao, but the traits were opposite to the perverted angel. However, the domineering chaos element reminded him of Kishin Douji and Mao Miaomiao at the same time.

"Who is that?!"
