Chapter 433 – Cathulhu’s Party VS Solomon (1)

In front of the stacked team of protagonists, Solomon laughed. Four pairs of wings emerged from his back.

A pair of white feather wings produced disfigured wolf-butterflies, mimicking Xiaomao’s catterflies. The mutts came out as white while their savage-looking heads bore fangs and barked.

A pair of black feather wings gave birth to one-meter-tall karma snakes. They rapidly multiplied and rushed toward karma centipedes, attacking them. The giant creatures immediately fought and tried to eat each other.

A pair of fancy sword wings scattered and duplicated themselves. A million swords formed another dragon array, glaring at Chase’s dragon sword array.

A pair of purple string-like wings drew the karma threads from the Samsara River and merged with them, bestowing endless knowledge, experience, and insight to Solomon.

Those were the abilities of Xiaomao, Chase, Mao Miaomiao, and Meng Xin!

Solomon laughed, “You have no chance against me. I can use all Dao and abilities in the universe!”

Mao Miaomiao, Meng Xin, and Chase’s expressions were solemn. They had expected this, and they came prepared. Everybody brought out secret pills from their spatial rings and ate them. After steroiding their Dao and Qi, they readied to jump into a bitter fight.

Seeing their expressions, Solomon mocked them, “If you want to blame someone, blame Xiaomao for giving me such a great gift! I have to admit. James Huntsman and Sima Yi’s abilities should be considered the pinnacle of this universe. You should have protected them when you had a chance.”

“…”

Mao Miaomiao glanced at Xiaomao. He had no idea what his son had been scheming, and the situation was terrible. Had Mu-Nyang never ensured him, he would have beaten Xiaomao to a pulp.

On the other hand, Xiaomao picked his ears and sneered at the four pairs of wings. He rotated his arms, warming up as if he was preparing to exercise.

Solomon noticed Xiaomao’s carefree attitude. He frowned, “It is not too late for you to switch sides, Xiaomao. I know that you’ve taken the liking of my stepdaughter Amon, and I’m willing to let the bygone be bygone. Join me, and I’ll spare Mu-Nyang.”

Xiaomao scoffed, “I don’t want to.”

Solomon paused for a long time. He clicked his tongue, “This is your last chance. Come to me, or I’ll bury you along with those foolish protagonists!”

Xiaomao raised his eyebrows. He started rotating the fishing line and bait, preparing to cast it.

Seeing how Xiaomao ignored the offer, Solomon bellowed, “SO BE IT! NONE OF YOU CAN LEAVE THIS PLACE ALIVE!! GO KARMA SNAKES!”

By copying Mao Miaomiao’s abilities, the karma snakes obtained the same abilities as karma centipedes. They disengaged from the battles against the creatures and came for the four protagonists.

“Let me handle this,” Mao Miaomiao stepped forward, and his entire body turned black. His skin, clothes, and katana were coated with black miasma and aura. Meanwhile, his eyes turned crimson and glowed in the darkness.

Solomon narrowed his eyes as the universe law sent him a warning message.

DING

<WARNING! Mao Miaomiao has unsealed Mu-Nyang’s Limiter.>

<WARNING! Mao Miaomiao has inherited the legacy of THE DEVIL!>

The formerly black feather wings transformed into devil-like wings. Two horns grew from his forehead, and his aura transformed the gear into black armor, made of negative karma fibers. Cursed souls in the Samsara River rushed down and merged with the plate armor, empowering the negative karma and miasma.

The plate armor was not the only piece of equipment Mao Miaomiao had. Bracers, shoulder guards, greaves, leggings, boots, and gauntlets fully covered Mao Miaomiao’s body. The miasma soon manifested a demonic metal helmet, covering his head and 100% of his face. Even without a hole for his eyes to see, the red light glowed inside the metal, piercing through the mask.

Mao Miaomiao’s dantian universe also transformed. Countless compound elements and chaos element stars segregated, preventing the negative karma to ruin the lifeform on mortal planets. However, it increased the ceiling of the local population’s cultivation base.

The black-winged angel, now the Devil, took a stride and let one of the karma snakes bite him.

As soon as the fangs hit the armor, they vanished into Mao Miaomiao’s body even though they failed to put a dent in his suit. After the first one entered, a million followed suit, joining the party.

Solomon burst into laughter, “What are you doing, stupid idiot?! I heard that you were dumb. But in reality, you must be a retard! Once bitten, no one and survive a karma creature!”

“Are you sure?”

Mao Miaomiao’s voice was hoarse, but it resonated in the air.

A second later, Solomon sensed something amiss. He couldn’t sense the karma snakes that he had created from negative karma.

They were gone!

“W-What did you do?!”

Solomon couldn’t understand why the karma snakes hadn’t killed Mao Miaomiao yet. He was certain that he had copied all of Mao Miaomiao’s abilities, knowledge, and experience by using James Huntsman’s power.

“I heard that you were dumb, but you must be a retard. Did you not check my memory of how I got this ability? Do you think you can kill me with my skills?”

“WHAT?!”

Solomon frowned and noticed that Mao Miaomiao’s entire body was made of negative karma, which was the origin of karma snakes and centipedes.

“To cultivate negative karma, one has to be bitten by countless karma centipedes first! How many karma snakes and centipedes infiltrated my body, have you imagined it? If I survived that trial, do you think these snakes can still kill me?!”

“!!!”

Solomon’s expression turned ugly as he had never heard of this prerequisite of cultivating negative karma. He had thought that it was a Dao of Mu-Nyang, not Mao Miaomiao’s true abilities.

BOOM

Something exploded in Mao Miaomiao’s dantian, but he looked refreshed. His name tag and level glittered in red.

Mao Miaomiao, the Devil, Level 999,999

Solomon bellowed, unable to accept that Mao Miaomiao’s strength caught up to his.

“Impossible! To become a sage, you must transcend karma and chaos! A brat like you can’t possibly be my peer!”

The protagonists shook their heads. Mao Miaomiao revealed his signature smirk, “This is what happens when protagonists gather. One of us will get hit by the power of plot armor, and the most villainous one will lose their brain cells. Listen well, Xiaomao, Chase, Meng Xin. Whenever you face villains or antagonist-class idiots, let them cook. Let them show you their full power. Then, during their cooking session, they will usually go retard like this guy.”

pαndα`noνɐ1–сoМ

Although Xiaomao, Chase, and Meng Xin had no idea what Mao Miaomiao was talking about, they somewhat understood the general idea of this lesson.

In short, let him cook and make mistakes first. Then, they could become Gordon Ramsey and inflict emotional damage on the villains later.

As Mao Miaomiao’s abilities couldn’t be used to kill the ability owner, Solomon turned his attention to Meng Xin, Chase, and Xiaomao. He sent the remaining karma snakes to them.

SCREECH

The karma centipedes were also counterattacked. They caught the snakes and devoured them. Every time a snake died, countless strings of negative karma flew toward Mao Miaomiao and merged with him, granting him more power.

DING

A bracket appeared behind Mao Miaomiao’s level. His true strength already surpassed the limit of Mu-Nyang’s dantian universe!

MUNYA!!

Suddenly, a cry of pain echoed in the universe. Mao Miaomiao clicked his tongue and directed 70% of karma strings to the Samsara River. As soon as the karma entered the river, a sign of relief from Mu-Nyang could be heard.

“Sorry, kitty. I won’t eat any more karma. The rest are yours.”

Mao Miaomiao unsheathed Killer Queen. He activated the sword domain, planning to finish the fight on his own.

“NAÏVE!”

Solomon suddenly grabbed a broadsword from the sky and swung it first!

Mao Miaomiao, Meng Xin, and Xiaomao’s expressions changed. A barrier dome appeared and blocked the invisible strike.

In a split millisecond, they saw invisible swords appearing in their bodies. The weapons came out from another dimension and emerged in their chest and stomach.

This was how their sword domains worked. They created swords in other dimensions and secretly cut their opponents from the inside! This was why they only needed to swing it without touching the opponents.

Seeing their skills being used on them, Meng Xin, Mao Miaomiao, and Xiaomao thought of activating the time domain to stop the attack. However, someone reacted faster.

“Not on my watch!”

Chase flickered his katana slightly, but the sword domains shattered, disabling the swords in the other dimension to manifest in everybody’s body and kill them.

CLANK

Solomon sensed the feedback of his sword hitting something hard. He immediately turned to Chase as he knew what it was.

“DAMN YOU, CHASE SHEFFIELD! YOU AND YOUR SWORD DAO CAN’T DEFEAT ME! GO SNAKES, GO DEATH KARMA!”

After realizing that Chase could negate and parry his sword domain, Solomon manipulated the karma snakes to focus on Chase. He also drew strength from the Samsara River, creating a string of death karma. He sent it to Chase as well.

This was Meng Xin’s ability. As long as the string could touch someone, the victim’s lifespan would be reduced to zero!

That would have worked if the true Samsara God hadn’t been watching.

“What do you think you’re commanding, scum?”

Meng Xin raised his finger, and the string of death karma stopped moving. It turned around, facing Solomon instead.

“DAMMIT, SAMSARA GOD! FINE, I CAN’T USE YOUR POWER AGAINST YOU, BUT HOW ABOUT THIS?! GO WOLF-BUTTERFLIES!!”

Meng Xin, Chase, and Mao Miaomiao smirked. They secretly glanced at Xiaomao, waiting for him to negate the ability.

Betraying their expectations, Xiaomao leisurely cast the fishing hook, which latched on one of Solomon’s wings.

“Gotchu!”

Xiaomao giggled and ignored the incoming wolf-butterflies. They surrounded Chase, Mao Miaomiao, and Meng Xin. Then, they opened their mouths to bite them.

“XIAOMAO!!” Mao Miaomiao panicked.

Chase and Meng Xin’s faces were ashen. They cursed Xiaomao for not dispelling the wolf-butterflies.

PANT

PANT

PANT

MLEM MLEM MLEM!

They licked the trio instead of harming them. The butterflies acted like puppies.

Everybody but Xiaomao: “…”

Xiaomao giggled and mocked Solomon, “If you are copying my cute harmless catterflies, you should have trained them first, MUNYA! They are not combatants, MUNYA!”

Everybody but Xiaomao: “…”
