I Really Am A Villain
Ch. 367 - Bloodthirsty Immortal Ascension Pill

At this moment, the aurora shattered, and even the continuous beastly roars seemed to reach their peak.

Finally, with one final deafening roar that seemed to use up all its strength,

The roof of the inner house in the courtyard was directly blasted open, and a single pill flew out from the opening.

“The pill has gained sentience! Stop it quickly!” the Dustless Alchemist shouted anxiously from inside.

Xu Zimo frowned slightly and flew straight toward the pill.

The pill seemed aware and resisted, an image of a beast formed above it.

It was a strange beast that swung a massive claw and opened its blood-red mouth to bite at Xu Zimo.

Xu Zimo coldly snorted, drawing his saber, Shadow Tyrant.

With a sharp sound, endless spiritforce gathered on the blade.

A massive explosion followed.

The saber light shattered the beast image instantly, while Shadow Tyrant buzzed lightly in the sky.

As the sharp blade hovered threateningly, the Bloodthirsty Immortal Ascension Pill trembled and froze in place.

It clearly sensed that if it tried to flee, it would be split in half without mercy.

As soon as Xu Zimo grasped the pill in his palm,

Four figures suddenly flew out from the crowd below.

All four moved simultaneously, each surrounded by the power of the Imperial Meridian Realm, they were trying to steal the pill.

Xu Zimo let out a cold snort and turned to face them.

“It’s the Four Elders of Heaven Mountain!” someone in the crowd shouted.

“They’re all veteran cultivators. Now they’re ganging up on one person, shameful,” another muttered in dissatisfaction.

“Oh please. Compared to a divine pill, who cares about reputation.”

...

The four rose into the sky, each taking a different position to surround Xu Zimo,

Preventing him from escaping.

Behind each of them appeared their True Fate, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, the four God Beasts.

Their powerful presence blanketed half the sky.

Spiritforce surged, and space began to fracture.

The elder representing Azure Dragon extended his hand and said, “Kid, hand over the beast pill and I’ll let you go.”

“Huh? You and what army?” Xu Zimo laughed lightly, then scanned the crowd below and said, “Anyone else who wants this pill, come now. Save me the trouble of dealing with you one by one.”

Hearing his words, some people in the crowd stirred, but most stayed cautious.

Let the Four Elders of Heaven Mountain test the waters first.

If Xu Zimo was truly powerful, they wouldn’t have to throw their lives away.

If it was just bluff, then a big fight would surely break out.

Nobody here was stupid, Xu Zimo dared refine pills openly in the city, so he clearly had confidence.

“Looks like you’re determined to be stubborn,” the four elders of Heaven Mountain snorted coldly.

Their True Fates roared behind them, the four God Beasts howling as they surged through the sky.

Then, the beasts merged, transforming into four formation marks that descended from the heavens.

The marks were filled with ferocity, and in an instant, a deadly formation formed.

Inside it, even space was frozen.

The four beasts surrounded Xu Zimo with bloodlust.

Dragons coiled, tigers crouched, phoenixes cried, turtles roared.

Endless spiritforce hummed in the air.

“Kid, this is your last chance. Don’t seek death,” one of the four said with killing intent.

“This is all you’ve got?” Xu Zimo laughed coldly.

He stepped into the air, and the pressure of an Empyrean Meridian Realm expert surged around him.

Like a great river flowing at sunset, overwhelming and unstoppable.

Lightning crackled over Shadow Tyrant, and fire and wind howled around it.

With one slash, the saber erupted with heavenly force.

The shadows of the four beasts were shattered instantly, fading with a dying cry.

But this formation wasn’t simple. As soon as the first set of beast images disappeared, spiritforce around them condensed and formed new ones again, as if endless and unkillable.

Xu Zimo sneered and slowly sheathed Shadow Tyrant.

In his eyes, lightning surged, tiny arcs flickered faintly.

At that moment, his eyes turned cold and emotionless, as if stripped of all feeling.

More and more lightning gathered in his eyes.

Dark purple lightning crackled and popped,

Something terrifying was forming.

...

Xu Zimo raised his head slightly, lightning flickering in his cold eyes.

With a loud boom, two bolts of lightning burst from his eyes, piercing through the void,

Shattering all space in their path.

The speed was like ten thousand bolts of thunder. The Heaven Mountain Four didn’t even have time to react.

The deadly formation was destroyed, and the lightning continued forward.

Two of the elders were instantly obliterated by the sea of thunder.

They didn’t even have time to scream.

The remaining two’s faces turned pale in horror.

They didn’t dare stay a second longer and tried to flee.

Xu Zimo chuckled, “Trying to run?”

He waved his hand and summoned the Immortal-Suppression Chain he had obtained from the Silent Extinction Ridge.

Spiritforce surged as the chains clanged and rattled.

They quickly extended to over a thousand meters long. One end shot out like a streak of light.

With a sharp whoosh, in just a blink, they caught up with the two fleeing elders.

The chains wrapped tightly around them.

This chain was special, it didn’t just bind the body, it sealed the meridians.

Once caught by it, a cultivator’s meridians were blocked, and they became no different from an ordinary person.

Escape was nearly impossible.

The remaining two elders looked completely hopeless and pleaded with Xu Zimo.

“Please, we were blinded by greed. Let us go! We’ll serve you faithfully in return!”

Xu Zimo shook his head and smiled, then waved his hand again.

The Immortal-Suppression Chains tightened even more, squeezing the two men.

As the chains contracted, their faces turned red, and they screamed in agony.

“Please, spare us-”

Before they could finish,

There was a loud explosion. The spiritforce in the chains erupted, crushing the two of them into blood mist.

The blood mist floated in the air, slowly drifting downward.

Xu Zimo leapt up and landed atop the courtyard gate.

Looking down at the crowd around him, he said, “Now, who else wants this pill?”

The crowd fell completely silent.

The Heaven Mountain Four were well-known in Dragon City.

They weren’t the strongest, but still powerful figures.

Yet they had been slaughtered so effortlessly.

Anyone who had thoughts of stealing the pill was now silent.

Some people even began to leave quietly.

Xu Zimo snorted lightly and returned to the inner house of the courtyard.

The Bloodthirsty Immortal Ascension Pill was completely pure white, about the size of a fist.

Strange beast patterns were carved across its surface.

Holding it in his palm, it radiated a burning warmth.
