《Life of a Villain》Chapter 14: Cultivation (I)
Advertisement
When Andy realized what had happened, he was stunned and his heart sank. After much pain and suffering, he was finally able to gain the cultivation body. Is it plausible that his body will be taken from him?
“Wh...what exactly are you doing?” As his heart pounded furiously, he asked.
A laugh rang out in his head.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,”
When he heard the laugh, his heart sank even more. But then the laughter came to a halt, and the Demon Lord spoke to him in his mind.
“Who do you think I am? Let’s see, in your world, people would call me a Villain. The evilest man in the world. So, what do you think I’ll do?”
“Didn’t you know that my other name was Demon Lord?”
Andy’s heart pounded furiously as he presumed the consequences of the current situation.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAH”
His mind was filled with laughter once more. It was the same kind of laughter that a villain would get after seeing a helpless victim.
“Look how terrified you are. Did you really think I’d take control of your body?” He could hear the Demon Lord’s voice in his head.
“So, what are you up to?” Andy wondered aloud with an unusual expression on his face, as it felt strange that someone was inside his mind.
“Did you really believe you’d be able to cultivate with no help?” As his voice became solemn, the Demon Lord inquired.
“Isn’t it? I’m familiar with the details from the book, as well as the information provided by you about cultivation. Shouldn’t I be able to do it?” As he sat on the altar, Andy mumbled.
“Did you really think you were like the heroes of your world’s novels? Who could do anything because they had the information? Do you even know what cultivation is?” the Demon Lord asked with scorn.

Andy tried to retort, but couldn’t. That’s correct; aside from the information, he knew nothing about cultivation. A sigh escaped his lips. “Fine, you’re right. Now, tell me why you’re inside my head.”
“Jokes aside, I have little time left. Since you’re the heir to my legacy. At the very least, it is my duty to guide you down the right path of cultivation. And, based on your memories, I realized that many interesting things in this world should not be here.” Demon Lord said in a solemn voice.
Andy was surprised, but then he remembered that in the book, Fang Yan discovered many treasures that helped him become much stronger. Especially that rusted sword, which was actually the sword of a Fallen Immortal.
“You are talking about that sword?” Andy asked out loud.
“Hmmm, that’s one of them, but you have to get them first. Keep in mind that your fate is deeply entwined with his. Since you are aware of the future, you can change it. However, since destiny is on his side, killing him will be difficult, but you can render him powerless and I’m curious to see how you’re going to go about it. But first, you must cultivate.” The Demon Lord said.
Andy's eyes lit up with understanding as he mumbled, “So, that’s why he escaped.”
“You now understand why he was not killed. You should be serious in your cultivation because the lives of many people depend on you.”
Andy’s face turned strange when he heard the Demon Lord’s words, and he asked, “Why should I care about others?”
Demon Lord was stunned for a moment before bursting out laughing “Good Good, that’s how it should be. Even before you become a cultivator, you are thinking like one,”

As his tone became solemn, he said, “Now, let’s talk about cultivation. I believe you are already aware of the realms. Could you please tell me more about them?”
When Andy heard that, he recalled everything he had read in the book.
“Its Body Forging, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Soul Formation, Profound Realm, Heavenly Realm, Su..”
But the Demon Lord cut him off, saying, “Enough, since you’re in the Lower World, your goal should be the Heavenly Realm, as it’s the last realm before ascension to the Middle World.”
“You should also know everyone has unique roots, which determine the height of cultivation they can achieve. The better the roots, the more energy you could absorb.”
He paused for a moment before asking, “Can you explain to me the different types of roots you read about in the book?”
“Mortal, Earthly, Heavenly, Sage, Saint” Andy responded.
“Hmmm, right, now do you know what type of roots you have?” the Demon Lord asked.
Andy shook his head as he replied, “I’m not sure, but it should be a saint-ranked root, right? Even Fang Yan was given the saint-ranked roots in the book.”
“You are now mistaken. Your body has an immortal root. That was also the reason I fell into this world.”
“Immortal roots?” Andy was perplexed.
Andy was completely taken aback when he heard that. He couldn’t believe he had gained the immortal root.
He vividly remembered the Fang Yan obtaining immortal roots in the upper world.
“Don’t be too surprised; even if you got the immortal roots, in the lower world they’d be the same as the saint-ranked roots that Brat had inherited.”
