I Really Am A Villain

Six Infinite Dao cultivators. For the Eighteen Blade Purgatory, this was no longer a mere flesh wound.

It was the severing of an arm.

Over the years, the Eighteen Blade Purgatory had developed rapidly. With the backing of Divine Mountain, they had managed to cultivate eighteen Infinite Dao cultivators in total.

That alone was already enough to make them proud.

Within the Grand Desolate Heaven, as long as the Divine Court did not intervene, very few dared to provoke them.

Thus, they had grown accustomed to acting like kings of the mountain, with no real rivals.

Having played the role of a false king for so long, an overbearing arrogance naturally took root.

In the Grand Desolate Heaven, only the Eighteen Blade Purgatory were allowed to bully others. No one else was permitted to challenge them.

Now, with six Infinite Dao cultivators fallen, this was the first such incident in millions of years.

The elder seated at the head was known as the Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord.

He was the only Three Blossoms cultivator in the Eighteen Blade Purgatory.

As his voice fell silent, an Infinite Dao cultivator below finally spoke.

“The matter has mostly been investigated. Cangtian was killed, and the other Infinite Dao cultivators went to seek revenge. No one expected the opponent’s strength to be so terrifying. In my opinion, the Eighteen Blade Purgatory should mobilize in full force this time and publicly execute him before the eyes of the world. Only then can we restore the authority of the Eighteen Blade Purgatory.”

“I agree,” another Infinite Dao cultivator followed.

“In the Grand Desolate Heaven, aside from the Divine Court, there is no one we need to fear.”

Nearly all of the dozen-plus Infinite Dao cultivators favored war.

If this matter were endured, the Eighteen Blade Purgatory would lose all authority and become a laughingstock.

“Since that is the case, then we take revenge,” the Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord said coldly.

“Use Divine Mountain’s teleportation formation to directly lock onto that man. This time, we tear him to pieces.”

As soon as his words fell, a rumbling sound echoed.

The entire Divine Mountain began to tremble violently.

Several palace structures started collapsing, causing the Infinite Dao cultivators to frown.

“What’s going on?”

A disciple ran in frantically and reported, “Ancestor, someone is attacking Divine Mountain.”

“Who?” the Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord asked, frowning.

Divine Mountain’s reputation spread throughout the Grand Desolate Heaven. He could no longer remember how many years it had been since anyone dared to attack it.

“It’s the Bamboofolk,” the messenger replied truthfully.

“Bamboofolk? What even is that?” an Infinite Dao cultivator said in disbelief.

“Have they gone mad?”

“Aren’t they always fighting the Iron-Eating Beasts? Why would they suddenly attack Divine Mountain?”

The cultivators discussed heatedly, all finding it hard to believe.

At this moment, the Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord spoke.

“Then let us go take a look. This is so absurd it’s laughable. No matter the reason, the Bamboofolk deserve to be exterminated.”

…

At this moment, at the base of Divine Mountain.

As the towering bamboo swept everything aside, millions of stone giants were sent flying.

The massive bamboo then swept again, forcibly prying open the gates of Divine Mountain.

Xu Zimo and the others slowly walked inside.

The moment they entered Divine Mountain, waves of spirit energy wrapped around them.

The density of this energy was so high that at times it even condensed into celestial rain.

Ouyang Xiu and Ji Zhan inhaled deeply, feeling their previously stagnant cultivation realms begin to stir.

“With an environment like this, even a pig could become an emperor,” Ouyang Xiu complained.

“No wonder the strong only grow stronger.”

Xu Zimo smiled. “If you’re jealous, you can join the Eighteen Blade Purgatory.”

“…I’m not stupid,” Ouyang Xiu replied.

“Boss, you’ll definitely wipe out the Eighteen Blade Purgatory. By then, this place might just be a pile of ruins.”

At this moment, several figures stepped through the void from afar.

They were Saint Sovereigns of the Eighteen Blade Purgatory.

“You Bamboofolk have gone insane, courting death by daring to attack the Eighteen Blade Purgatory,” one Saint Sovereign shouted.

The towering bamboo did not respond.

As the strongest of the Bamboofolk, it simply swung its massive stalk.

With a boom, space shattered as it lashed toward more than ten thousand Saint Sovereigns.

The force was overwhelming, seemingly unstoppable.

More than ten thousand Saint Sovereigns were sent flying.

Immediately after, countless bamboo leaves began drifting from the stalk.

Under the assault of these leaves, the Saint Sovereigns were riddled with holes.

Some were even nailed directly into the void, killed on the spot.

“Impudent,” a shout rang out from the distance.

A figure descended from the sky, an immense force suppressing everything from above.

This was the Gravity Dao Lord.

He had comprehended the edict of gravity.

The terrifying edict manifested like gravity multiplied thousands of times over, crushing everything.

Even the towering bamboo was forced to bend under the pressure.

“Bamboofolk, you are seeking death,” the Gravity Dao Lord said coldly.

The bamboo struggled fiercely, ignoring him as it desperately tried to break free from the gravitational suppression.

The Gravity Dao Lord turned his gaze toward Xu Zimo and the others.

He skipped over Ouyang Xiu and Ji Zhan.

What truly caught his attention were Xu Zimo and God-Eye Dao Lord.

“Who are you? How dare you trespass into Divine Mountain?”

“Allow me to introduce myself. I am the one who previously slew six Infinite Dao cultivators of your Eighteen Blade Purgatory. You should know who I am,” Xu Zimo said with a smile.

Hearing this, the Gravity Dao Lord’s expression changed.

At that moment, an overwhelming presence descended from the horizon.

“So bold. After killing our Eighteen Blade Purgatory’ cultivators, you still dare to come knocking at our door. This is the first time I’ve seen someone so arrogant.”

The Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord arrived, leading a group of Infinite Dao cultivators through the void.

Their vast momentum battered space itself as power surged endlessly.

The Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord stood at the forefront, dragon might rolling around him.

He was not a true dragon, but a human with partial dragon bloodline who had achieved the Infinite Dao realm.

Xu Zimo looked at him and sneered.

“From today onward, there will no longer be an Eighteen Blade Purgatory in this world.”

“Take him down,” the Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord said calmly.

More than ten Infinite Dao cultivators stepped into the void, surrounding Xu Zimo.

Everyone knew that six Infinite Dao cultivators had already died at Xu Zimo’s hands, so none dared to be careless.

They immediately resorted to a group assault.

The Gravity Dao Lord swung his right hand.

A gravity mountain descended from the sky.

Xu Zimo felt his body sink instantly.

The crushing force shattered his bones, attempting to completely suppress him.

“Get lost,” Xu Zimo shouted as Shadow Tyrant swept across the sky.

The gravity mountain was split cleanly in two.

“Kill.”

He raised Shadow Tyrant, and countless streams of blade light burst forth, engulfing the Gravity Dao Lord from all sides.

“Summon divine generals,” the Summoning Dao Lord roared nearby.

Before him, a black vortex appeared.

He could summon beings into battle.

This was the edict of summoning.

He could form contracts with powerful wanderers from beyond the Nine Heavens and call them forth to fight.

The stronger the summoner, the stronger the summoned beings.

At the Summoning Dao Lord’s level, even the weakest summon would be a Saint Sovereign, while the strongest might rival an Infinite Dao cultivator.

“Absolute zero,” the Ice Dao Lord chanted nearby, gripping an ice staff.

Countless storms gathered as terrifying power froze heaven and earth, stirring everything into chaos.

Eleven Infinite Dao cultivators.

Each and every one attacked with full force, unleashing world-destroying power.
