<h4>Chapter 1270 Ji Yuan Promise to Protect Destiny</h4>


    ?Ji Yuan and Destiny cautiously crossed the two ck pirs of mountains that were in front of them.


    Soon they saw that they were within an encirclement of ck mountains all around there, sheltering them from the strong winds.


    This empty expanse of space within the ck mountains were about 10 miles wide inside.


    Ji Yuan was surprised that such a t terrain could exist within the expanses of ck mountains around them.


    At the same time, they could see gigantic golden runic carving that was deeply engraved in the ck mountains all around them.


    And in the middle of this t terrain was an imposing blue portal that measured a mile in height and width!


    Ji Yuan gulped at the size of this blue portal, "I think I have forgotten to ask the Divine Messenger or the Holy Maiden Ling Ya how big exactly this so call Great Deste Wyrm really is. From the size of this portal, it really seems monstrous."


    Ji Yuan was immediately apprehensive because if the deste monster was toorge, he would be unable to deal much harm to it.


    Size does matter.


    Just imagine an ant trying to kill a human.


    The bigger a deste monster is, it will be able to absorb more damage and shock.


    Ji Yuan suddenly felt like he was the ant now.


    All the cultivators love to boast how mighty their profound arts are, able to level entire mountains ands but they would be afraid of a mere lightning bolt from the heavens.


    The size of the earth is so huge that lightning bolts can be easily grounded harmlessly.


    No matter how powerful a cultivator is, they are not going to destroy a mountain even though the cultivators like to say that their profound arts are able to demolish the mountains and overthrown the oceans; this was just an expression and an exaggeration to mean that their profound arts are really very powerful.


    However, the bad trantors machine tranted the ''Demolish the Mountains and Overthrown the Oceans'' phrase as literally, causing subsequent cultivation stories to be more and more exaggerated.


    At this moment, Ji Yuan really wished that he could ''Demolish the Mountains and Overthrown the Oceans'' with his One Dividing Sword if he were to encounter the Great Deste Wyrm.


    The Goddess Destiny said to him, "If I am not wrong then using this blue portal correctly will lead us to where the ck Heavens Eye is. That is, if you are gather to piece together the golden runes that are around us to form the correct key to use the profound formation that is within that blue portal."


    Ji Yuan said her with an awkward look, "And what if I am not using it correctly?"


    The Goddess Destiny said matter of fact to Ji Yuan, "Then we may end up alerting the Great Deste Wyrm to our presence."


    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he said, "Well. Maybe that Great Deste Wyrm is somewhere far, far away now. We don''t see him at all."


    The Goddess Destiny said to Ji Yuan, "This you are wrong. I can sense the powerful presence of this Great Deste Wyrm and it seems to be in a slumber now."


    Ji Yuan was startled, "You can sense it? Where is he now? And how powerful is this Great Deste Wyrm? Why didn''t you tell me earlier?"


    Destiny said nonchntly, "I didn''t sense him until we are near the ck Death Mountains. Also, I didn''t know how powerful he is until we are in this ce. This is because these mountains here contain his profound signatures…"


    Ji Yuan asked her as he interrupted her panicky, "I didn''t know your divine sense is so formidable to be able to sense his profound signatures from these ck mountains that are so far away. So, how strong is he?"


    Destiny smiled, "I am a true god, that''s why. My divine sense is naturally better than you…."


    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: Do you have to say how weak I am and that I am only a half-immortalpare to a true immortal like you?


    Destiny continued, "If I am not wrong, then this Great Deste Wyrm should be a 11th rank epic deste profound beast."


    Ji Yuan: …


    He weakly said, "You got to be kidding me, right? I know how powerful Sisi''s Augustina phoenix really is but she merely a 9th rank epic phoenix. This is a 11th rank epic profound monster?! We are truly screwed now."


    Destiny asked him, "You aren''t expecting this?"


    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "I was expecting a 9th rank profound monster and at most a 9th rank epic profound monster. I can''t even imagine a 10th rank profound monster and this freaking monster is a 11th rank epic profound monster. We are totally screwed now."


    Destiny said nonchntly, "Not so if we can decipher the runic formation of that blue portal to obtain the ck Heavens Eye."


    Ji Yuan said weakly, "You know this is harder than striking a lottery, right?"


    Destiny smiled to him, "Fear not. I am here."


    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Have you ever considered the fact that we may not be able to defeat this Great Deste Wyrm?"


    Destiny smiled, "I didn''t, of course."


    Ji Yuan was startled but delighted at the same time, "That means that you have the confidence that we will be able to take care of this Great Deste Wyrm then?"


    Destiny smiled coyly at him, "The reason why I didn''t consider this is because you didn''t consider it first and all my confidence hase from you instead."


    Ji Yuan: …


    He really felt like fainting on the spot now.


    Just as he was about to ask her about their chances of odds against this Great Deste Wyrm, Destiny began to smile at him and said to him.


    "With you around, I feel at ease. Surely you are able to protect your betrothed maiden, am I right?"


    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he put on a straight face but gave Destiny an awkward look as he patted his chest. "Leave it to your man to settle this Great Deste Wyrm for you."


    Destiny smiled to him, "Then I shall take a backseat while you settle this Great Deste Wyrm alone then."


    Ji Yuan: …


    Ji Yuan: …


    Ji Yuan: …


    She can''t be serious at this poor timing, right?


    Destiny smiled coyly at him, giving him a flush look, "You will promise to protect me, am I right?"


    Ji Yuan awkwardly replied, "I will surely protect you. This is a promise..."


    He had actually thought that it would be wiser to run away first than making a direct confrontation. But in front of an alluring Destiny who was looking so coyly at him as though he was her hero, he as forced to take the bitter pill of promising to protect her instead.


    Xiang Li and Anyang were both saying with great disbelief: Prideses before the fall...


    Ji Yuan weakly said to them: I know and you don''t have to remind me. We are screwed up now...
