Villain Cultivator

Chapter 434 – Winter Chaos – Part 3

[Ten Paths of Nirvana is now welcoming new disciples! Everybody who is inspired to become an immortal can take an aptitude test for free at the platform.]

[There are several rounds of selections and tests, depending on your performance. Everyone may take different tests as nobody is born the same. Secondly, there will be no bloodbath as this sect forbids senseless killing.]

[Still, the first test is universal. Anyone under 12-year-old is free to come up onto the stage and punch, touch, or kick the boulder. We will score you base on your power output and your potential. As long as you can score more than 100 points, you will earn the right to take the next selection tests, which will be held later next year! The first test will start from today and end when the spring comes, when the second rounds of aptitude and assessment tests will be held.]

[There will be a total of ten divisions of Ten Paths of Nirvana Sect. You may be assigned to one of the followings, depending on your aptitude and affinity;]

[First Division: Path of Yin Yang.]

[Second Division: Path of Nature.]

[Third Division: Path of Saints.]

[Fourth Division: Path of Sea.]

[Fifth Division: Path of Beasts.]

[Sixth Division: Path of Swords.]

[Seventh Division: Path of Spears.]

[Eighth Division: Path of Deception.]

[Ninth Division: Path of Alchemy.]

[Tenth Division: Path of Blood.]

The announcement signboard was so large that even commoners could see it from 100 meters away.

Visitors, merchants, scholars, and local people were interested in the event. They gathered to read the announcement and told their friends about it.

…

"Ten Paths of Nirvana? How about ten paths to hell, Miaomiao?"

Wei Yuan didn't like the name that Miaomiao came up with. From her perspective, it was pretentious and cringe.

"And Miaomiao, Path of Yin Yang? Really?" Wei Yuan glared at her husband, thinking that Miaomiao would really open a dual-cultivation division.

"The first division will be co-managed by me, Jiang Lan, and the girls from Silver Phoenix Sect. We'll teach them the classic skills, Yin Essence, Yang Essence, and Yin Yang based skills. There won't be anything involving sex. You're overthinking."

Miaomiao sighed as he patted her head.

"What about the path of Blood? I never heard of this arrangement."

"Oh, that? Ju Chen and Zhu Clan requested it. The vampire girls also want to spread their knowledge to the world, so let them have it."

"…You sure?"

"Ask Ju Chen if you don't believe me. She's the ring leader of all this."

"Alright."

Wei Yuan finally left Miaomiao alone. The latter also got room to breathe.

Constantly being audited by Wei Yuan was nice as she could spot errors and flaws in Miaomiao's system. However, it could be annoying sometimes.

Miaomiao looked up and gazed at his signboard and the giant black amethyst boulder that he and Dian Wei had created. He was proud of his creation.

'At long last, freedom! Though not the freedom that I'm looking for, at least, I won't be nitpicked or dragged around by random seniors!'

He had strayed from his goal, aka the laidback slow life without messing with a protagonist or antagonist's storyline. Since Miaomiao couldn't avoid the confrontation with various protagonists and villain's sects, organizations, cults, or armies, he might as well create a force of his own to compete against them.

Only when he was the strongest man in the realm, universe, or multiverse, he could live his dream life, making as many babies as he wanted with his gorgeous wives.

He was never bored of sex. In fact, he wanted to do more!

Therefore, immortality and absolute strength were necessary!

Miaomiao's lust and ambition were limitless!

He rubbed his hands and gently poked the assessment boulder with his index finger without using his Life Essence. He and Dian Wei had specially created this formation and boulder with their unique skills for this event.

WHOOM

9,999,999 Points

The Black Amethyst Boulder was engraved with an evaluation array formation, which could measure the foundation of the attacker by sending a Qi-Sealing Wave into the body of the attacker. Then, the body of the test taker would echo the feedback to the boulder.

The test taker's dantian, bone marrow, Qi volume, and impurity in the bloodstream would be evaluated by the formation algorithm. At the same time, it would neutralize any Qi-based attacks, self-repair, and render the physical attack useless.

Seeing the result of the test, Miaomiao nodded in satisfaction. The value reflected his current energy volume, aka the current energy in his body. Unfortunately, it could only measure up to 10 million points due to the boulder's limitation.

Had the boulder measured Miaomiao's foundation properly, the real value would be at least 17 digits, which was equal to his Life Essence Volume in his entire body and dantian. This number didn't include his elemental crystals and continents.

But for measuring ordinary cultivators, it was more than enough.

"What the hell is that number?"

Visitors, merchants, and bystanders gazed at the number. They looked at Miaomiao and the boulder, confused.

Miaomiao coughed and elaborated, "I was testing the tool. Now, the assessment boulder is ready. Anyone who wants to take your chance to join the Ten Paths of Nirvana Sect, can step forward and hit the boulder once. Of course, the test is free, but the test taker must be younger than 12 years old!"

The age requirement was strict since Miaomiao didn't want random jerks or spoiled young masters from various sects to ruin his sect. He wanted youngsters that he could tame and control!

Many rogue cultivators sighed as they were older than the requirement. Still, many merchants and parents with small children were excited.

One of the elderly servants of a merchant company clumsily carried his 6-year-old grandson to the stage. Both of them were commoners, but they had been carrying an artifact, which allowed them to survive in the Life Essence Radiation environment.

"Excuse me, sir. Could my son take the test?"

Miaomiao nodded and smiled at the shy boy behind the peddler, "Of course. He can try. Well, since you're too small, wrap his fist with a thick cloth and let him touch the boulder."

"Doesn't he need to punch it?"

"Nah, his bones are too fragile at his age. Just touching it will do," Miaomiao winked at the old man.

The boy looked around in confusion as his grandpa covered the former's right hand with a piece of rag. Then, he instructed the child to hit the boulder.

The child hesitatingly approached the boulder. He lightly punched it with his tiny hand.

The boulder was lightened up, and the result was shown.

172

"Eh!?"

The elderly peddler widened his eyes in shock. He didn't expect his grandson to pass with such a feeble strength.

Moreover, they were commoners! He never thought much about his grandchild's potential!

"Good. He passes the test! How about it, senior? Want him to join my sect? Since he's a minor, we will accommodate you to stay with your child, and we will provide you with a new job. You can work as a deacon assistant for my sect. Of course, we will teach you about cultivation as well."

"REALLY!?"

The old man knelt and kowtowed to Miaomiao in glee. He asked his grandchild to bow to Miaomiao as well.

The offer was too good to be true. As a commoner without a future, this opportunity would benefit his grandchild and him. He accepted it right away.

"We do! We will join the sect! I'll do my best to serve you, too!"

Miaomiao guided the grandpa and the grandchild to the city. Jia Shan, who was nearby, also gave them an amethyst token with the character "Nirvana" on it.

Seeing that a child could easily pass the exam, many parents brought their children to the platform.

Surprisingly, 99% of the candidates passed the trial with a flying color!

As for the remaining one percent, they had a similar habit and trait.

Five hours later after Miaomiao had opened the test to the public, another one of the one percent guys showed up. He was a 10-year-old boy, who was born into a small family of cultivators.

His parents were 4th-stage rogue cultivators. Yet, they dressed like they were nobles.

The son of theirs leaped onto the stage and puffed his chest, flaunting his status and good-looking. He showed off his refined muscle despite being young.

The first-stage cultivator boy believed that the test would be easy since most of the children younger than him could easily get a high score with a light punch.

"The Great Genius of Du Family, Du Hui, will now take the test! Let the Great Me show the world how it's done!"

The arrogant child, Du Hui, strode toward the boulder without Miaomiao's permission. He punched the black boulder with his full force.

RUMBLE

As the child had hit the Qi-Sealing Boulder without protection, the metal repelled Du Hui's power, creating a shockwave to push the attacker back.

At the same time, the result was shown on the formation.

48

Du Hui failed!
