Chapter 594 – Resort Castle Fun (2)
Xie Lian stood on the balcony and rubbed his chin.
His soul-bound artifact hovered in front of him, but he didn't feel like he needed it as much anymore.
Just now, he had finished digesting the Heavenly Merit orb that Adam had given him. Now, he could reconstruct his physique and stop relying on the soul-bound artifact to stay alive.
'I should enter seclusion now, but I'm worried about Xie Fan. Oh well, Mao Miaomiao is dead meat. He will eventually devour her and has to take responsibility. I can leave them alone.'
Xie Lian left the king's chamber and proceeded to the elevator inside the king chamber, which could directly transfer him to the underground levels.
The underground level was a maze, designed to trap intruders, especially players.
In the past, Nuwa, Fuxi, and their first creations relied on this fortress to withstand the relentless assualts of the players. It managed to outlast the undying players for 20 years before both sages abandoned the fortress to the sage realm. The defenders of that generation were routed and slaughtered afterward.
However, remnants of the defenders still lived inside the underground city, under the mazes!
Xie Lian entered an elevator and descended 10 kilometers. He looke through the glass elevator and admired the massive structures and facilities of the underground city.
This place was called Fuxi Sanctuary. The people here worked directly under Fuxi, and it was currently protected by Fuxi's chess pieces.
As soon as Xie Lian's elevator door was opened, two beautiful men in front of the elevator cupped their fists and bowed to the deity.
"Welcome, Great Rook. Yellow Emperor has been expecting you. Please follow us to meet him."
Xie Lian frowned, "I'm here to find a secluded place to cultivate for half a year. I don't want to meet him."
"We understand. We shall inform his majesty. Please excuse us."
The two men vanished.
Xie Lian snorted and waved his hand. The bronze sword, aka his soul-bound weapon, suddenly got larger. He stepped on it and rode the flying sword toward his house, which was located inside the imperial district at the core of the underground city.
…
SCREECH
Evil spirits of unknown flowers chased after Miaomiao. One of them entered his body and appeared inside the dantian space.
Diaochan, Meowmeow, and Killer Queen rushed to intercept the invader right away. The gang crushed the spirit and converted its soul into soul Qi.
Miaomiao carried Xie Fan into the castle, but he didn't return her to the king's chamber. He boldly brought her to a guest room.
The room was also furnished, and the bed was big enough for four people to sleep in. Miaomiao placed her down on the bed.
"S-Sir Mao?"
Miaomiao shut the door and expanded his Qi sense.
Outside the room, a thousand evil spirits gathered and searched for Miaomiao and Xie Fan.
Miaomiao wasn't afraid of the ghosts. On the other hand, he was afraid that Xie Fan might have killed everything before he could devour their souls.
Currently, Miaomiao was out of centipede eggs. He needed to violate the Heavenly Dao taboos and be punished by negative karma tribulation again.
"Stay here. I'll go outside and deal with those monsters."
"O-Oh. Okay."
Miaomiao rushed out and closed the door behind him. As soon as he came out, a thousand evil spirits entered his body, attempting to possess him.
The deafening scream of the spirits was audible in the room. Yet, Xie Fan didn't hear them.
She brought out a mirror. Then, she repaired her makeup in a hurry. She also sprayed sweet perfume to her armpits, neck, and breasts.
Xie Fan pondered for a moment. A moment later, she lifted her skirt and sprayed a little to her panties.
She regretted her action the next second. The perfume made her private parts itchy.
Xie Fan grumbled and spread her legs, scratching her vulva and making a weird expression.
BOOM
A loud explosion could be heard outside. Xie Fan corrected her clothes and sat on the bed.
CRACK! BOOM!
Xie Fan looked through the windows. Dark clouds manifested, and the oppressive presence of Heavenly Dao returned.
Someone had provoked Heaven, and the Karma Tribulation was about to begin.
"Who the fuck ate a soul? Is he nuts?"
…
Miaomiao burped after he had devoured a hundred flower spirits and turned them into Soul Essence. The rest of the souls were shared with the sentinels in the dantian space.
Eating a flower spirit netted him a million grains of Soul Essence. It also directly increased his max soul essence volume!
One hundred souls were one hundred million grains of soul essence!
Miaomiao regretted that he couldn't eat fast enough. The other 900ish flower spirits were taken by Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and others.
'That was addictive. I want more.'
Wanting more souls, Miaomiao left Xie Fan in the room and rushed out of the building.
But Karma Tribulation awaited him. More evil spirits from the black cloud swarmed him.
"Oh, shit."
Miaomiao had a déjà vu. Within seconds, a billion negative karma strands wrapped him like a cocoon while a million evil spirits tried to possess his body.
…
Xie Fan waited for Miaomiao for an hour, but he never returned.
Annoyed and frustrated, she went out to look for him. She also spread her Qi sense to search for his aura.
But she found a massive cocoon of strange threads instead. Countless evil spirits screamed and laughed as the massive dark cloud kept pouring these spirits into the cocoon.
Xie Fan's expression turned solemn. She had read about this tribulation back in the clan.
"Karma Tribulation? But who… Aw, shit. Really?!"
Xie Fan detected the aura of Miaomiao. She was speechless.
"Here I thought that I would lose my virginity today! Why are you playing with those evil spirits, you dumb fuck!"
Xie Fan condensed a holy element ball and threw it toward the cocoon in anger.
Many evil spirits screamed in pain as the holy element was their bane. Some of them vanished.
However, it was far from enough to erase all evil spirits around Miaomiao. After all, Xie Fan didn't use her full strength.
Xie Fan scoffed and returned to the king chamber alone. Although several evil spirits followed her as she interfered with the karma tribulation, she simply killed them with her passive Holy Saintess Domain, which protected her body and dantian 24/7.
…
Meanwhile, Miaomiao and his glutton soul sentinels had the greatest time of their lives. It was a first-come-first-serve buffet!
The Unholy Karma Plane evolved the fastest. As Diaochan was so good at controlling karma snakes and dark element, she attracted 50% of the invading evil spirits and turned them into food.
Still, Diaochan couldn't eat them fast enough. She ended up turning evil spirits into fertilizer of the Unholy Karma Plane as the karma snakes took all the leftovers and used them to nurture the plane.
The plane quickly evolved and transformed into a small planet the size of a modern moon. Diaochan's soul totem also sank into the core of the planet and merged with it.
As soon as the totem and the planet merged, Diaochan sensed that her soul core transformed and her physique was reconstructed.
Diaochan retained her beauty, but her strength multiplied. She felt like she had become an immortal.
Then, she thought of the cultivation method that Miaomiao hadn't used yet.
'Let's see… Karmic Sovereign, is it?'
Diaochan sat on the Unholy Karma Moon to test the cultivation method.
The cultivation method was closely the same as the Stellar Constellation Method. However, the practitioner could convert good and bad karma threads into Primordial Yin and Yang Providence Qi, which was the Qi that only deities could cultivate!
However, this cultivation method required a monstrous foundation. The practitioner's minimum strength before they pursued this method should be at least on par with immortals!
Moreover, it required the cultivator to donate their planets to Heavenly Dao to obtain the true benefit of this method.
Diaochan immediately opened her eyes and clicked her tongue. Her totem soul couldn't use this cultivation method.
'Shame. I can't be as strong as Miaomiao.'
She gave up the cultivation method right away. After all, primordial yin and yang providence Qi could have instantly destroyed her dantian had she recklessly absorbed it into her body.
'How about this inferior method? Karmic Seraphim Constellation?'
This inferior method was a bit comfortable for Diaochan. But again, it heavily relied on Heavenly Dao as it drew its providence Qi from the Zenith Heaven.
Diaochan had a bad feeling about this. She immediately stopped using this method.
Diaochan was not the only one who tried these cultivation methods. Xu Chu tested them as well, and she quickly gave up her ambition. Unless she regressed and recultivated from scratch, she couldn't use it.
"Ah, Miaomiao. You're a cheater."
The others also complained. Kang Yan, Ma Xingjuan, and Chang'e groaned as they failed as well. Still, these girls had another cultivation method to use, and they didn't need Miaomiao's help.
On the other hand, Meowmeow and Nya-Nya benefited greatly from this tribulation. As system users, they converted the invading evil spirits into EXP and increased their levels, ignoring Heavenly Dao Law.
Soon, their planes evolved. Two new moons orbited around Miaomiao's primary planet.
Queen Gu and the centipede-newcomers benefited from this buffet as well. As they were originally karma centipedes, they mastered the karmic techniques and spiritual attacks by heart.
As soon as stray spirits got closer to the Queen Gu's element continent, she and the newcomers dragged them to the ground and munched them. Although their efficiency was inferior to Diaochan's karma snakes, they worked as one when they found prey.
A few hours after Diaochan condensed the moon, Queen Gu's Plague Element Continent turned into a flying continent, waiting for Miaomiao to upgrade her into a Soul Sentinel like the others.
Meanwhile, Miaomiao had fun catching new souls into essence cores. He flew around in a circle, harvesting the evil spirits.
Rain of soul essence grains showered the primary planet like a hailstone rain. The local dryads and dwarves hid inside buildings or caves as these small grains could instantly kill them if they were directly hit on the head.
Eurobeat had enough of Miaomiao's inconsiderate farming method. She activated her Hard Bass Domain and bellowed.
"WATCH WHERE YOU'RE SHITTING, MASTER!"
The power of hard bass instantly shot down Miaomiao from the sky. Although his physique was a manifestation of his will, his ears in the dantian space and the real world bled like a fountain.
Then, his vision temporarily turned dark. The body in the dantian space could hear the clear voice of Dion.
Ding
Miaomiao's consciousness vanished, and the new body was reconstructed. His ears were healed, but he still felt the aftermath of the scary Dao.
"Eurobeat! Don't shout when you use that Dao. That stupid voice is too loud!"
Eurobeat didn't care. She gathered her Qi and manifested her Dao Avatar. Then, her avatar, aka an electric bass guitar, appeared in her arms.
She put on 8-bit sunglasses and rock-star clothes. Then, Eurobeat unleashed the deep and impactful shockwave of loud bass while she obnoxiously sang a song from the modern world.
The shockwave was so wide that it affected others. Many dryads and dwarves collapsed, but they were respawned a few seconds later.
Miaomiao was annoyed by the rudeness. He shouted at Eurobeat, "STOP SINGING ALREADY! YOU'RE HURTING THEM MORE THAN I DID!"
